Are Your Clothes Ready to Ring in the New Year?
CLOTHING CARE TIPS
Do you have an outfit picked out for New Year’s Eve? It’s a special occasion, so whether you’re planning on attending a party, visiting a busy venue, or going out on a big date, you’ll want to make sure that you’re looking your best.
Whatever you’re wearing at 11:59 pm is also what you’ll be wearing as you ring in the New Year – and the new decade – so why not go out of your way to make it special? Take a look at some ideas that can help you choose the right look for New Year’s Eve.
Glam It Up
If there was ever an occasion for bringing out the sparkles and sequins, New Year’s Eve is it. This is a night that’s known for fireworks and glittery balls that drop on a timer, so maybe you want to glitter as well.
If you have a sequined gown or a metallic lame minidress that rarely sees the outside of your closet, this might be the night to break it out. Go all the way with some eye-popping jewelry, shiny shoes, and a liberal application of body glitter. January 1st, 2020 is only going to happen once, so why not live it up a little?
Go Classic and Elegant
On the other hand, you can’t go wrong with the classics. A basic black dress that fits your figure just right is always in style and welcome almost anywhere you might want to go. You can dress it up with accessories or keep it simple and understated. Whether you’re attending a work function with clients or a private party with friends – or both in the same night – you’ll be perfectly attired for wherever the night happens to take you.
If you’re going with a date, choosing a classic black dress is a sure way to ensure that your looks won’t clash; you’ll blend in seamlessly with any look your partner chooses. Don’t worry about looking just like everyone else; you can still put your own unique spin on the look with your choice of jewelry, hairstyle, shoes, and accessories. Choose a brightly colored silk scarf or a beaded bag for a splash of color.
Try Out Something Unique
Of course, it never hurts to just be yourself, and that could mean choosing something that’s uniquely your style. More comfortable in pants than a dress? Maybe you’ll look festive in a silk jumpsuit or a tailored pantsuit in a bold color.
Maybe you want to glam it up, but you prefer feathers and fringe to sequins and glitter. Or choose your favorite pair of skinny jeans and dress them up with a tuxedo jacket and a pair of stiletto heels. Your only limit is your own imagination, so make the most of the chance to celebrate a fun holiday and choose a look that’s uniquely you. Don’t be afraid to stand out in the crowd.
