    Sequins are fashion forward this year, and the trend for stripes just won't quit. On this Independence Day, we mash up our patriotic duty with sequined, starred and striped clothing. Parade out any striped item along with all sequined fashions. Sprinkle some stars in? The more the better in red, white, blue or any color of the rainbow.
    As Elisa Benson of Cosmopolitan.com stated about wearing sequins this season: "Sparkle and shine let everyone know you're in the business of fun, and I always like to be the most fun person in the room." Happy 4th of July, America!
