TOOnce again, the New Year’s trap caught several victims. There is a sort of fatal attraction that on December 31st pushes us towards the sparkling must-haves. Incurable fans of minimalism will still have opted for a velvet, satin or lace piece. But the question today is only one: how to match the sequined dress or the crystal covered micro dress now that the holidays are over?
Recycling is the watchword for 2023: to be sure that these clothes don’t lie in the bottom of the wardrobe for months, you need to have clear ideas on how to reuse them every day. The tendency to shine, on the other hand, is there for all to see, and the mission isn’t that difficult: you just need to know the right outfits, to introduce a sparkling touch into your wardrobe right now, or in view of next spring.
Sequin mini dress + high boots
How to match after New Year’s the classic black short sequin dress, always the most popular under the tree? Once you leave the heels behind, just mix it with a pair of high but low-to-the-ground boots. A simple and impactful look, which lends itself to the softer parties to come.

With the oversize sweater, which transforms it into a skirt
Is the sequined dress really too sparkling? Just partially cover it with a tone-on-tone oversized sweater to transform it into a more moderate skirt, which also lends itself to daytime looks. Beware of using minimal accessories: a simple bag, kitten heel pumps.

With the leather jacket
The transparent dress so popular for the 2022 Holidays is perhaps the most difficult piece to use in an everyday look. To the rescue comes the bikercore trend, which indicates the way to reuse it: a romantic grunge look which introduces leather pieces, as the fashion shows dictate. Starting from the jacket, to get to the biker boots.

With the maxi blazer and the flats
New Year’s crystal covered dress can be dusted out of context with the addition of a men’s oversized blazerwhich dampens it a lot.
At the feet, the ballet flats of the moment, to be worn with ribbed wool socks, even during the day.

Refined and more original than the usual floral dress.
