Christmas meal out top - sparkly

75 replies

tinyme77 · 25/11/2024 22:25

Has anyone seen a top which has sequins or glitter over part of the top? There are lots that are completely sequins but it isn't that big a night out. I just want something sparkly but not disco ball! For a lady of a certain age (in this case I mean not too skimpy or skinny). Thank you.

@OhBeAFineGuyKissMe No, not at all itchy! As that would drive me bonkers too.

Thank you for this! It’s my ideal top and I’ve just ordered the last one!

Whistles Annie Sparkle jumpers are low key but lovely. I have them in loads of colours and wear them not at Christmas too.

Thanks to someone on here years ago!

This is subtle but versatile...

I loved this when I caught sight of it rushing through M&S last week, I must get back to it

I recently bought this (it's a US link but I'm pretty sure it's available in the UK) - it looks looks lovely on and just on the right side of understated bling for me! I'll be wearing it today for my Thanksgiving lunch and probably to my club's ladies Christmas dinner with a black faux leather pencil skirt and knee high black suede boots.

I bought this recently. It is £££ but beautiful and will hopefully last a few years.

I bought this one from M&S £25. It is soft and very green.

Love that! But can't justify it 😢

I’ve seen similar jumpers elsewhere for much cheaper.

M and s have loads. I got the silver sequin one for the work xmas party

I know! It is the most I have paid for a top. But I am sick of the poor quality of cheaper clothes that often look awful after a few washes. So now I buy far fewer clothes and spend more when I do. I also buy a fair bit from charity shops now. Clothes were much better quality even just a few years back.

I know, I have as well, but they're not cut as well. I hate the high necklines on so many of them this year and the extra fabric at the shoulders.

cazcaz2 · 01/12/2024 08:47

Only watch you dont start shedding sequins as another poster was shedding the black feathers from the River Island black dress.I prefer the black lace covered camisole top...

Something like this would be perfect! Sparkly sleeve top

Just got this in green/gold from a charity shop for £2.59! It's so pretty!

Thanks i just bought the black one with cyber Monday discount, wanted the ice blue one but didn't want to pay full price. I have a pleather leggings with a bit of sparkle to wear with it so office xmas party sorted!

That’s probably the kind of jumper I’d buy in a sale. Especially as it seems like a classic of theirs.

Bit late to the party but did you get something? I'd suggest Roman Originals, just search their 'Christmas' section or 'chiffon tops'.

I have this one in both black and wine. Wore the black to our work's Christmas lunch last year and will wear the wine one this year. True to size and I love how they have videos of ladies wearing them so you can see how it looks on:
