How can I dress down a sequin skirt?

Q. I want to wear this black sequin skirt during the December holidays, but I'm not necessarily going to be going out to formal occasions. I love this skirt, but I'd like it to be more versatile. Are there any tops and/or accessories you could recommend that are more casual but still go well with the it?

A. There's nothing we love more than pairing traditionally fancy clothing like a sequin skirt with more casual pieces to wear day or night. Here are a few ideas followed by some inspiration pictures for dressing down your skirt:

• Pair your skirt with a super casual t-shirt or tank. Add tall boots, ankle boots or heels to finish the look.
• Add a blazer or leather motorcycle jacket for an edgy-meets-glamorous look.
• Get a punk rock vibe with a graphic tee and studded ankle booties.
• Go ladylike with a classic cardigan or v-neck sweater.
• Go classic with a tailored white shirt.
• Go laid-back casual with a long belted cardigan or sweater.
