Four Ways to Jazz Up Your New Year's Eve Outfit

From a fancy dinner party to going out dancing to a low-key evening at home with close friends, New Year’s Eve is the one night of the year to dress to impress. Now that your big plans are in place, all that's left is planning the right outfit to match the occasion. 

Whether you're dressing up in your best cocktail dress and faux fur coat, or rocking that slip metallic dress with your Dr. Martens, there are many ways to make your outfit stand out. 

Thoughtful details like a brooch, hair barrettes, hats, and that special scarf can take your outfit to the next level. Ring in 2019 with a fabulous outfit with just enough glitz and glam to make you stand out on the dancefloor. Check out these four looks that have just the right amount of pizzazz to set you apart from the crowd, and make it a memorable evening. 

Elegant Night Out

If you're feeling fancy and headed out for a night on the town, this is the look for you. Silks, lush velvets, faux furs, and flowy skirts are what your New Year's Eve calls for. Command the room with a sense and sophistication with this lush, dual-sided Hudson Muffler in Cognac and Plum Velvet. This wrap is the perfect accent for your outfit when coming from the Met and then headed uptown to an elegant party. 

There are multiple ways of styling this perfect accent piece. Pair it with a solid-colored dress or skirt. Dress in layers that ooze confidence. Wear it with an off-the-shoulder top to help show off the luxurious muffler. Finally, think about an open or closed-toe heel to top this outfit off. 

Life of the Party

Sometimes you need something a little extra to set your outfit apart from the rest. The Greenwich Leopard Velvet Wrap with Pom-Pom Trim is everything you could ask for in a wrap and is guaranteed to be an attention-grabber. Think about pairing this scarf with bright, impactful colors such as reds, purples, greens, or even a blue shirt or skirt. High-waisted, black wide-leg pants styled with a bright top or that metallic pleated skirt you've been saving to wear for the right time is the way to go. This is definitely the kind of look that is more fashion-forward and edgy, but the scarf is still the statement piece. 

Punk Rock Princess (or Prince!)

You are a bold dresser and always looking to push the style envelope and for New Year's Eve you want to up the ante. The Crosby Patchwork Scarf is the piece that encapsulates your unique look and is also functional. When you're out dancing the night away this piece will turn heads while you cut a rug. 

From a slip dress to that funky striped shirt you bought at a vintage store, the dual fabrics of this one-of-a-kind scarf can match any mood you're in. Think about mixing different patterns and textures this New Year’s Eve to capture the feeling of this unique design. For shoes, try a  cute pair of kitten heels or even motorcycle boots to help really bring your personality out. 

Low-Key Hostess

For some, an intimate party with your inner circle is the ideal New Year’s Eve celebration. However, no matter how big or small the occasion your sense of style is never lost. Casual elegance is your vibe and the Broadway Lime Silk Lame Wrap is just that. The scarf has a metallic sheen and sheer softness that can be the final touch to any outfit. 

Think about pairing this sophisticated scarf with your favorite pair of skinny or boyfriend jeans, and then a classic button-down shirt or sequined blouse. Whether you want to drape this around your shoulders or neck, this scarf is just the thing you need that will give even a laid-back party a touch of glamour. Simple flats, heeled booties, or even a fun pair of heels will give this look life. 

Whatever style you choose for New Year’s Eve, remember, the devil is in the details. Accents like wraps, scarves, and key pieces of jewelry can really add to your outfit and overall vibe. Have a Happy New Year!
