New Year's Eve

The end of the year is fast approaching... Time once again to look back and celebrate all that we have experienced and accomplished. And, with only a few days left in 2011, there are usually two big questions everyone is asking:

What are you doing for New Year's Eve?
and
What are you going to wear?

And hey, if you only have one last chance to make an impression in 2011, better make it count right? Here are some New Year's Eve outfit ideas to get you inspired for the big night!

THE DRESS

French Connection Samantha Sequins Dress / Tibi Metallic Jacquard Dress / Haute Hippie Sequined Strech-Silk Dress

Nothing says "let's celebrate!" more than metallics and sequins. The French Connection silver sequined dress is the perfect balance of classic and fun with the wrap-over detail, powerful shoulders, and eye-catching sequins. While the silver hue is beautiful, the dress also comes in gold (check it out here). Tibi's Metallic Jacquard Dress is a little less flashy, but equally fun with its olive, gold, and black metallic finish and, major plus, forgiving waistline (hey, it is the holidays after all!) If you would prefer a dress with some sleeves this Winter, try something like Haute Hippie's Sequined Stretch-Silk Dress. While the cut of the dress is rather simple, the all over bronze sequins and low back ultimately steal the show. For a similar, less expensive option, check out Nasty Gal's Gabby Sequin Dress.

THE SHOES

Christian Louboutin Bianca Patent Pumps / Kurt Geiger Scatter Suede Booties / Steven Angels T-Strap Pumps

When you're working with sequins, the easiest thing to do is to contrast the party on top with some black basics. These sky-high Christian Louboutin patent pumps are a coveted classic, while the Kurt Geiger suede booties provide a little more edge. For some added feminine detail, the Steven t-strap pumps can be worn over tights to enhance an elegant evening look.
