New Year's Eve Attire 2022

New Year’s Eve is the biggest party night of the year though, for most, putting together a festive look takes pre-planning and creativity. It happens to come at the tail end of the holiday season when many are partied-out, making comfort and confidence top priorities when building an outfit strategy. And in case you don’t already have a standout sequins, velvet or metallic piece in your closet, there are always clever shortcut solutions that won’t break the bank. Here are tips and tricks for ringing in the new year in style this season:

  1. Wear red
    If you’re tuckered out from all the holiday-ing by the time New Year’s Eve rolls around, wear red. Its psychological benefits are both real and powerful, which include confidence-boosting and spirit-lifting. Moreover, true red is flattering to all skin tones. Wear matching lipstick to really feel your mood transform!

  2. Choose a shift dress
    Every woman should have a wardrobe of shift dresses. The shapeless, straight cut is forgiving, camouflaging and comes in handy if you’ve over-indulged on eggnog and holiday sweets. Even better if you have one in red!

  3. Try a bejeweled sweater
    ’Tis the season of embellishments, which is the ideal party look for New Year’s Eve. No need for a sequined gown, though. Instead go for a toned-down version of dressed-up by opting for a bejeweled sweater to pair with tuxedo trousers, silk pajama-style pants or a velvet skirt. You’ll look and feel cozy, comfy and festive.

  4. Wear statement jewelry
    If you’re battling the bulge after too much seasonal wining and dining, focus on statement jewelry that distracts away from the waistline. Wear chandelier earrings or pillow clips to command eye contact, or cocktail rings that steal the show when you gesticulate. Try a choker or cluster of brooches high on the torso to draw attention up and toward your face. Even a classic black velvet headband says holiday while keeping the focus above the neck.

  5. Sparkly socks in a pinch
    For those who have nothing festive in the closet, shop for sparkly socks, knee-highs or tights for a pop of festive. It’s an easy and inexpensive online purchase in a pinch, and chances are you won’t have to exchange for a different size.
