It's December 30th- that means New Years Eve is tomorrow!
Personally, NYE is one of my favorite holiday's to get dressed for. It's the holiday when you can shamelessly pull out all the extravagant pieces in your closet that you've been dying to wear all year! Fur! Glitter! Sparkles! Glitz! and Glam! You name it- that's what NYE is all about.

So here's the question: What makes a good new years look?
The answer: Going outside your "normal" in order to create something brilliantly glam.
Now, that doesn't mean that you have to spend hours getting ready.
It merely means: spice things up!!
There are plenty of tricks in the book that you can do in order to get a glam look without spending hours at the beauty parlor!

So let's break it down, shall we?

While the outfit itself is an important factor-- everything else can make or break your look.
Think: Hair, make up, nails, accessories.

When doing your hair make sure you're veering away from your everyday look and trying something bold.

One of my favorite looks is a top knot.
Viola!

The top knot is one of the easiest hairstyles to accomplish yet provides a chic and sophisticated look that will be sure to catch some eyes!



If you're feeling like getting extra glam- try adding a statement hairpiece to your top knot! It's pure beauty and perfect for NYE!

Next- it's all about your eyes! Your eyes are always an important part of your make-up and NYE is no exception.
Eyes and lips are the focal points of your face.
So, glam up your eyes.

How?
1. Glitter, baby!
Add some glitter to your color pallet! Whether it's glitter eyeshadow or a soft shimmer to highlight the corner of your eyes and under your brow glitter is perfect for the NYE look.

2. Lashes!
Yes, that's right! False eyelashes are the perfect way to make your eyes say "Va Va Voom!"
You can pick them up at your local beauty store, Target, or Walgreen's! They come in all different sizes. They are a minor investment in order to make a huge statement with your eyes. I promise- after you wear them once, you'll never want to take them off!

As for the rest of your make up- well, keep it bold & pretty.
New Years Eve is no time to hide in the shadows! This is your time to stand out and as shine bright.
Another one of my favorite tricks to brighten up the eyes is to use white shadow or a highlighter in the corner of your eyes in order to bring them to life! It makes the world of difference.

As for your cheeks - keep them pretty and rose-y!
Use a soft pink pallet and add some color to your pallet.

Lips! Lips! Lips!
One of the most important parts of your make up canvas!
My personal favorite is a bright red lip.
A girl can never go wrong with a bright red lip- it's absolutely stunning.
People always notice a girl who walks confidently in a room with a bright red lip- it's undeniable.



Last but not least-- your nails.
Whether you think people are looking at your nails or not- they are.
Keep your manicure fresh for NYE, ladies!

A simple way to add some glitz and glam for the NYE is to add a statement sparkle nail.
It's my personal favorite and a trend that you can implement into your everyday life.

Lovely, right?

Whether you have big party plans or are planning a small house get together, get bold and creative with your NYE outfit!
It's a day of celebration & another reason to get dressed up. One of the best parts of being a girl is being able to get creative with our attire.
The options for NYE outfits are endless. Remember: Say farewell to your everyday office look and say hello to glitz and glam. Don't be afraid to try something new and go outside of your comfort zone. Without fail, every time I've tried something new and gone outside of my comfort zone I've fallen in love with my outfit. Whatever you wear- wear it with confidence! That's the key to pulling off any style or outfit.

Well, darlings! I can't wait to see and hear about how your NYE outfits went! I'm sure all of you will look absolutely brilliant!
