I picked up one to try and will also keep looking.</p> <p>Thanks again for all the suggestions! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sparkle-in-the-uk#post-552512 Tue, 28 Feb 2012 11:03:12 +0000 RoseandJoan 552512@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mrs Moo is right, the retailers remove the bling after the festive period (and then it re-emerges later into the season) but there are still a few pieces to be found. Great plains has a lovely sequin panel t-shirt which I would have picked up myself if it was machine washable <a href="http://www.greatplains.co.uk/product/Woman+Sale/J6LG6/Twinkle+Twinkle+Sequin+Tee.htm" rel="nofollow">http://www.greatplains.co.uk/p.....in+Tee.htm</a><br /> Boden has this lovely subtle sheen skirt which is ideal for summer and a few tops with embellishment.<br /> <a href="http://www.boden.co.uk/en-GB/Clearance/Womens-Skirts/Above-Knee-Skirts/BG002/Womens-Shimmering-Broderie-Skirt.html?NavGroupID=13" rel="nofollow">http://www.boden.co.uk/en-GB/C.....GroupID=13</a><br /> Also, B&amp;M mat be the way to go as sparkle is hard to photograph. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sparkle-in-the-uk#post-552507 Tue, 28 Feb 2012 10:03:12 +0000 Mrs Moo 552507@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love a bit of sparkle too, but it always seems to be in short supply once the festive season is over.</p> <p>I haven't seen anything of late to point you in the direction of, but as an idea, if I was looking to add a little bit of subtle sparkle, I would get some sparkly ribbon, or a few metres of tiny sequins (strung together) and sew them around the neckline of a cami or vest top. This way it is customised to you and as subtle/out there as you want it to be :0) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sparkle-in-the-uk#post-552477 Tue, 28 Feb 2012 08:47:54 +0000 Andrea W 552477@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would suggest if you were looking for something specific like a metallic or sequin item etc to go to the website</p> <p><a href="http://www.shopstyle.co.uk" rel="nofollow">http://www.shopstyle.co.uk</a></p> <p>and do a search.</p> <p>You can then narrow your search down to whichever item you are looking for: ie cardigan, in your size &amp; price range. Don't forget to click the bit where it says UK stores only.</p> <p>I use it all the time and it is a great online shopping tool. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sparkle-in-the-uk#post-551973 Mon, 27 Feb 2012 20:56:41 +0000 DragonflyJane 551973@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi! </p> <p>I was going to suggest Monsoon as they're usually good for sparkle but I see you've already checked. </p> <p>I can't say that I've seen much since Christmas - I'm seeing lots of brights at the moment.</p> <p>How about checking out Debenhams &amp; House of Fraser? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sparkle-in-the-uk#post-551939 Mon, 27 Feb 2012 20:30:14 +0000 Polly (thunalata) 551939@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Has anyone found any really good sparkly pieces in the UK?</p> <p>I've had a quick browse online at M&amp;S, Monsoon, Oasis, ASOS, H&amp;M, Zara but not seen anything very much.</p> <p>Anyone seen anything anywhere else (or in one of those that I haven't spotted?). There's a Limited jacket at M&amp;S that I might have a look at tomorrow. </p>
