If you're interested in trying glitter boobs for yourself, there's no "right" way to do it: All that's really required is that you smother your chest in glitter and rhinestones until you feel like a magical mermaid. You can really make it as simple or intricate as you want it to be—either way, you're guaranteed to stand out in a crowd.

This look is certainly not for the timid, but if you can rock it, get on with your bad self. And maybe consider tackling the glitter *butt* trend (opens in new tab) too, while you're at it.
