A beautiful sequin dress will catch my eye, and then, like a tractor beam, I am drawn to it with no choice but to make it mine. Luckily, New Year’s Eve is tomorrow night, which means it gets to have a night out on the town. Woo hoo!
New Year’s Eve is one of those special holidays where you can get away with wearing something pretty spectacular. I love seeing all the sparkles and metallics. And when you get a beautiful, sparkly dress to wear that fits you like a glove, you’re already 50% there towards a great time. (Plus, if you have winter formal, prom, charity galas, or an awards dinner to go to down the road, you already have a go-to outfit!)
This Faviana dress stole my heart because it has a red carpet glam about it. It’s sexy and fun, and fits true to size, which is a HUGE bonus. I had a very hard time making a selection, because all their dresses are so lovely, but this blue is a stunner…especially in person. These Swarvoski earrings are a little something I picked up from the awesome Swarovski boutique at Northpark Center a while back, and I’ve found a million things to wear them with. (P.S. They are having a fabulous after-Christmas sale going on until Jan. 4th.) I figure there is no better way to ring in the new year than feeling happy and bright. (I also went with my favorite Aerin Lauder mini-lipstick…stays on all night and fits in my small clutch.)
And while you’re sitting pretty in your sparkly dress, why not ponder a few of these for the new year?
- A habit you’d like to break.
- A new skill you’d like to learn.
- Someone you want to be more like.
- A place you’d like to visit.
- A good deed you want to do.
- Something you’re going to do better at.
Happy 2014, everyone!
