Am I too old for ...

WHEN you shop, you tend to gravitate towards those familiar things that your best friends might describe as 'very you'. This experience only intensifies as you age. I say this as someone whose friends could spot a frill-free, monochrome piece of clothing at 100 paces and label it mine. Some might kindly call this a style signature. Others might call it plain boring. I've come to agree. It's why some people (me) complain that they haven't a thing to wear, but actually they have plenty, it just all looks the same: dull. Which brings me to sequins. Possibly the least 'me' thing I could think of wearing. Which is probably why I've recently developed a hankering for them. The trouble is, although sequins have been considered appropriate daywear for the fashion conscious for a fair few years, they are still a tricky one to get right. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
