New Year’s Eve is all about sparkle and celebrating new beginnings. Celebrate in style this year in one of these gorgeous, sparkly outfits!
First up, is a classic New Year’s Eve outfit selection, a glittery dress. This fitted silhouette hugs your body’s curves and is so flattering! The gold color of the fabric is slightly muted and the glitter is fine, not chunky, so this dress is perfect if you are looking for a chic look that looks classy with just a little bit of sexiness due to the fitted design of the dress. This would look stunning paired with a black leather moto jacket and a pair of heels, or you could dress it down and wear a pair of cool sneakers and a bomber jacket to make it more casual. You can purchase this dress for yourself from H&M for just $12.99, which is such a fantastic deal for a dress that is sure to last you through many holiday parties and nights out on the town!

If you are looking for something a bit more embellished, try something like this black sequinned mini skirt from Amazon. Not only is it affordable, it retails for just $23.99, it is also incredibly comfortable. This skirt’s design is super stretchy to give you that bodycon look that is so flattering and will definitely turn some heads when the sequins that make up the entire skirt hit the lights. Paired with a flirty blouse and some black heels can take this skirt and make it appropriate for a dinner party, or if you are going out into the club scene, a pair of heeled sneakers and a sleek black bodysuit would make a great, comfortable yet flashy outfit. No matter how you choose to style it, this skirt is sure to make you dazzle!

Now, if you don’t feel like showing off your legs or the weather is just too cold to wear a sparkly skirt or dress, these paints are a good option for you! Macy’s has a great selection of fun yet business professional pieces that will help you ring in the new year with your coworkers in style. High waisted palazzo pants pull in the waistline making it appear smaller, the relaxed fit through the hips and thighs make the pants super comfortable to wear throughout the evening, and the wide leg combined with the subtle glitter in the fabric gives them a bit of extra flare. These pants are $49.00 from the brand MSK sold at Macy’s and payment plans on the pants are available online if you would like to pay them off over a period of four payments.

If you liked the overall vibe of the first dress from H&M but want a more modest design and a bit more coverage for your arms, then this rose gold sequin shift dress from Lulus is a fantastic choice. This one is more pricey than the other clothing pieces thus far, retailing at $70.00, however, the classic shape of the shift dress along with stretchy, sequin woven fabric make this an item that will remain in style for years to come. The v-neck, three quarter length sleeves, and short shift skirt give this fun dress a flirty feel that is sure to give you a confidence boost and remain comfortable throughout the entire night! Plus, it is fully lined with polyester, so you can be certain that the sequins, while incredibly pretty, will not feel scratchy on your skin.

If you already have a dress or blouse and bottoms picked out for your New Year’s Eve festivities but need a piece to tie it all together, check out this velvet sequined jacket by the brand Eliza J from Macy’s. This blazer style jacket is black which allows it to match anything you would choose to wear underneath it, the polyester and spandex lining of the jacket keeps it comfortable, plus it has functional pockets which are always a great addition to any clothing item. If you did not want to bring a purse, you could stash your cardholder and phone in the pockets to keep you handsfree! It does need to be dry cleaned, however, as it is a pretty bold piece if you only wear it every once in awhile this should not be a burden. Similar to the rose gold shift dress from Lulu’s, this chic jacket is fairly expensive, retailing at $128.00, but for a good quality piece that is a pretty great deal!

This last option is a little more on the scandalous side, but hey, it is New Year’s Eve after all! The top is a pull-on made of nylon for a comfortable yet flattering snug fit. It is just $14.99 from Amazon and looks great paired with a bralette and whatever high waisted bottoms you have. I would pair this with either a pair of black leather pants for an edgy look or a pair of simple jeans for a more casual event, preferably black high waisted jeans. Not only is this a great option for New Year’s Eve festivities at say a club or bar, but also would look so good for attending a concert during the year as well! This is such a versatile piece and if you are not comfortable showing as much skin as the model is in the photo, you can opt to wear a black tank top underneath this sheer mock neck top for more coverage than just a pretty bralette.
