With Christmas festivities and office parties just around the corner, we take a look at one of the hottest trends taking autumn/winter fashion by storm: Sequined shorts and skirts.
Although the glitter and glam of sequins are not exclusive to the bottom half of outfits, with everything from blouses, blazers and berets featuring them - there is something ultra trendy about the texture and style of them on skirts and shorts.
Not only are they great to team with the most simple of vest tops, blouses or even a box t-shirt if you're wanting them for some smart daywear, these pretties are perfect for parties all winter long.
Here we have a great selection wrapped up with a couple of inspired outfit ideas too.
This could be worn for day- or eveningwear. Team with a funky knitwear or baggy t shirt for texture and trend or go glam with a simple cream top and platform courts for the ultimate monochrome look.
Not as short or tight as hotpants, these shorts are great for an alternate night out loook. Find a one-shouldered top and some sparkling sandles to finish.
If you don't want to for an all-out sequin, these shorts are brilliant for capturing the essence of the sparkle in a low key fashion. Go for some bold colours such as reds, teals or oranges and match your heels in colour for some great party block-colouring.
These are some serious party shorts. Go for a simple black vest top and some black courts to class up this look. Find a detailed clutch and minimalist jewellery.
Team with some oversized knitwear and some ankleboots and you may have just found yourself a winter staple. This tube skirt would look great as a day to night piece. Just layer up well and have the confidence to wear it whenever.

Shiney, sparkling and full on sequins. You could do anything with this luxurious looking legwear and rock any occassion. If you're not confident in showing a lot of leg, go for some patterned tights to give some coverage.
