Outfit Inspiration For New Year's Eve If You Love Glitter

Whether going out on the town or attending an intimate house gathering, looking and feeling your best on New Year's Eve is essential. After all, this is the time to doll yourself up and blow everyone away with dazzling attire to celebrate the end of another year. To end the year with a bang, bring flair to your New Year's Eve attire with an ultra-sparkly dress, skirt, or blouse.

And what better way to stand out than by upgrading a classic New Year's glitter look? Step out of the box and have fun with modern necklines, mix-matched textures, and red carpet-worthy dresses. If you want an edgy outfit, get creative by combining sparkly sequin with a current trend, such as a quiet luxury look or a flashy minidress.

Regardless of your chosen New Year's aesthetic, the key to coordinating the perfect glitter outfit is ensuring your shoes and accessories complement — not overshadow — your style. In other words, pay attention to necklines when selecting a necklace and avoid going overboard with layered bracelets. Don't make the mistake of leaving the brainstorming for the last minute; scroll through this roundup of glitter-centric outfits to jumpstart your outfit planning.

You can never go wrong with a sparkly gold dress for New Year's Eve. To give a classic look a subtle twist, look for a dress with a unique neckline, such as a cowl neck or boat neck. If you're aiming for elegance, style a gold minidress with dainty accessories and stilettos. Or, opt for thicker jewelry and colorful heels to spice up this traditional New Year's Eve outfit.

Don't be afraid to experiment with textures for a creative New Year's look that will excite the senses. Dress daringly by combining glitter with leather, fringe, or mohair. Add sparkly shoes and accessories to match your sequin blouse to balance the contrasting textures.

If there ever was an occasion to go full Hollywood glam, it's New Year's Eve. This is the time of the year to indulge in all things glamor without restraint or regret. Style a shimmery silver dress with complementing jewelry, a pendant-drop necklace, and red carpet-worthy curls. Don't forget your strappy heels or dainty ankle bracelet to complement a side slit.

Embrace chic and sexy style with a little black dress (LBD) and a plunging neckline. All-black dresses with a deep V-neck make the perfect opportunity for statement accessories to shine, so reach for a lariat necklace to draw in the eye and dramatic earrings to dress it up. Or keep it simple with a blazer and delicate accessories.

Don't underestimate the allure of timeless puff sleeve dresses, which highlight the figure by accentuating the upper body and creating the illusion of a smaller waist. A puff sleeve bodycon dress looks fabulous on all body types, though they especially tend to balance triangular or rectangular shapes. Look for a colorful option to stand out, such as a dark forest green or magenta pink.

Wear a glittery blazer and skirt co-ord for a casual New Year's Eve get-together or work party. A coordinated outfit always impresses and comes off as an effortless, put-together look. Co-ords can easily be dressed up or down by accessorizing. For instance, opt for ankle strap heels for feminine flair or knee-high boots for a runway-ready 'fit.

Take the less-is-more approach this year with a reliably chic skirt-and-boot combo. Pair a sequin skirt with a satin thin-strap blouse and knee-high boots for a foolproof outfit combination that's sure to make a mark. Despite the classic elements, this look is anything but dull — just be sure to balance the outfit with eye-catching jewelry and a statement clutch to avoid a lackluster effect.
