Sparkles are a staple of New Year's. Highstreet clothing stores are full of sequined dresses and glittery tops at this time of year, so sparkles won’t be difficult to get your hands on. Charity shops are usually a great place to find sequins too - I have noticed this in Newcastle charity shops in particular and have found some really pretty pieces for a great price!
Why not spend the afternoon using your new lotions and shower gel before getting glammed up for the evening?
If you want to go all out, a sparkly dress or skirt is a great place to start. Glitter looks great when paired with black accessories like shoes, tights, or a bag, which will really make the sparkle stand out. Match the tones of the sequins with some silver or gold jewellery and sparkly eyeshadow for extra shine.
For a more laid-back look, you can never go wrong with jeans and a nice top. This is easy to make as glamorous or subtle as you like, just add or remove accessories! If I receive any clothes or jewellery as Christmas presents, I love using New Year's as a chance to wear my new outfits. This also applies to any makeup or beauty products you may get gifted - why not spend the afternoon using your new lotions and shower gel before getting glammed up for the evening?
New Year's Eve is the perfect opportunity to wear your best outfit.
If glitter’s not your thing, opt for other stand-out fabrics like velvet, satin or leather to level up your look. From a velvet top and jeans to a satin slip dress and heels, pretty fabrics are perfect for a party. Jewel tones like deep red, emerald green, and navy blue have a festive feel to them and would look great at a New Year's Eve party or event.
The best piece of fashion advice is to wear what will make you the happiest! If you are like me and are always waiting for a chance to get all dressed up, then New Year's Eve is the perfect opportunity to wear your best outfit and a full face of makeup. But if that isn’t you, wear whatever you feel best in and take this as a chance to make your last outfit of the year a good one.
