New Year Celebration

Greetings Fashion Divas,

I'm thinking about attending a New Year's Eve party this year.....again. This would make the 2nd year in a row if I do decide to go out. I know I'm going to church first, then I'll make a quick wardrobe change...and head on out for a little fun. I'm gonna try to get the gang together to join me...we'll see.

I have options in my closet to wear...of course.....but I know you fab fashion followers identify with me when I say...."I gotta get something to wear!". Oh really Shanequa...really. You are something else (in my best Kevin Hart voice). I honestly come up with any reason to search for clothes, tee hee hee! I'm actually thinking of a jumper paired with my newly purchased tuxedo blazer. Take a look below.


New Year's Eve Option


TIBI twill jacket, $495
Oasis black jumpsuits and romper, $120
Bebe high heel pumps, $80
Anya Hindmarch clutch bag, $550
R J Graziano silver costume jewelry, $75
Clear jewelry, $42
Alexis Bittar costume jewellery ring, $190
Dannijo oxidized jewelry, $223
Roberto coin ring, $260
Christian Dior Rouge Dior Lipcolor - No. 752 Red Premiere, $25
Filigree Star Tree Topper in Home Accents | Crate&Barrel, £21



I love my new blazer and the jumpsuit I actually own has medium ruffles around the bodice and jewels...looks better than my description, promise. Anyhew, I'm thinking real hard about the above option..........

However, I may go with the traditional route and just purchase a sequined/metallic mini such as the frocks I've included below.


Strappy Back Lace Tube Dress 
$39.99 www.shopakira.com

A fitted lace mini will be alluring and show off my legs....plus, I just realized that I do not own a black lace dress. The above style is a classic (tube dresses just won't go away), I can also see it paired with my tuxedo blazer. The price is right!




Black Sequin One Shoulder Dresses 
$40.00 www.windsorstore.com

This sequined mini is daring! I also like the transparent sleeve...hot!




Emily And Fin Alice Black Dress 
$60.00 www.coggles.com

This little black dress has high wattage shine that livens up the simple silhouette.




PRINT HALTER MINI DRESS 
$29.99 www.amiclubwear.com

This dress appears to be a lovely, animal-printed mini at first glance, however, I peeped the back of the dress and it was super short and fit like a second skin. That tells me every contour of my body will be imprinted along with the material of this dress. It's a little slutty....I know.....but I still like it!





Sequin Shift Dress By Rare 
$71.00 www.topshop.com

The scallop design is reminiscent of the '70s disco era. It's all the sparkles you need. But, if you're like me, you'll add a statement ring and maybe a simple pair of hoops ;-) A festive, satin pump in purple will look great wit this shift.





Silver 1 Shoulder Sequin Dress 
$39.00 www.missselfridge.com

Can we say liquid sequins? Man this one-shoulder number has a really classy style. I love the draping on the bodice of the dress and the fitted skirt. It's sooo cute!



Lastly, a Fashion Pad reader by the name of Allie asked that I share some affordable party dresses for a New Year Celebration she's attending. Well thanks a lot Allie for contributing to my frequent swiper miles, lol. My card can rack up some points for sure ;-) Go right ahead and browse through the following slide show for some cute, trendy, and fab finds.




I added jumpsuits, dresses, and rompers. I think I'm going to be going back and forth between the jumpsuit and my cut-out mini dress......care to offer a suggestion?




Arrivederci!

After a couple of disappointing parties on NYE, I've decided not to go out. but looking out these outfits makes me want to! I love the entire first look - its sexy and dressed up without doing too much. I also really like the shift dress from topshop!

Great dresses! I love the look from your set! Especially the contrast of the shoes!

Now me personally, I love the scallop dress too!!! It's so unique!!!!

Have a great time, be safe!

I love the idea of a jumpsuit for NYE only because everyone wears a cute cocktail dress, and I love the idea of being different.

Thanks for your kind comment girl! As for this post, I would soooo recommend going with the outfit you already have. Sounds cute! But if you can't fight the urge I really like that lil Topshop dress. It's really glamorous and would be a perfect transition from the old year to the new. Whatever you choose I hope you have a blast!

xoxo (till next time)
