This alone can be stressful, and particularly so if you have plans for the holiday and you’re on the hunt for something special to wear.
Don’t panic just yet; I get where you’re coming from! That’s why I decided to put together three gorgeous and glam outfits that are sure to stun for New Year’s Eve 2019!
The best part? They all cost less than $200 total. Therefore, you can kick off the new year without budget woes.
Ready to see these fab looks? Just keep reading!
New Year’s Eve Outfit #1: Cost – $143.89
Products: Dress – ASOS ($33.00, on sale from $60.00), Earrings – J.Crew ($11.50, on sale from $29.50), Bracelet – J.Crew ($39.50), Bag – Zara ($19.99, on sale from $29.90), Heels – Zara ($39.90)
If this New Year’s has you headed to a formal affair, you’ll definitely want to wear something that turns heads. What better way to do so than with this beautiful, embellished burgundy dress?
Since the dress’s neckline already makes quite a statement on its own, you don’t really need many other accessories. However, because it’s New Year’s Eve, you could definitely turn up the sparkle with pavé circle studs and an Art Deco-inspired bracelet.
For shoes, I decided to go with a pair of bow-accented slingback kitten heels, which, like the dress’s neckline, intentionally clash with the garment’s fabric in an elegant way.
Finally, because every New Year’s Eve outfit in 2019 needs a fun party bag, I chose this cute mini gold bucket bag. (PS: It’s totally versatile enough to be worn with more casual outfits after the holiday!)
New Year’s Eve Outfit #2: Cost – $197.69
Products: Bodysuit – Zara ($29.90), Earrings – Frasier Sterling ($38.00), Skirt – Zara ($49.90), Bag – Zara ($39.90), Heeled Sandals – H&M ($39.99)
Cocktail attire can be difficult to get right. Wear something too formal, and you run the risk of looking over-the-top; wear something too casual, and you wind up looking like you didn’t get the dress code memo at all.
Luckily, this chic, party-ready outfit strikes the perfect balance.
Speaking of balance, this sequined bodysuit is the perfect blend of formal and fun – which side you choose to play up is your call!
Personally, I decided to lean into the fun side by styling it with a voluminous mini skirt and stiletto sandals.
Furthermore, I chose to add a pair of pavé heart-shaped hoops for an extra dose of lightheartedness.
Again, I thought that it would be best to opt for a bold, textured metallic bag, which can be carried by its top handle or worn crossbody as you tear up the dance floor.
New Year’s Eve Outfit #3: Cost – $128.98
Products: Jumpsuit – ASOS ($60.00), Necklace – J.Crew Factory ($33.99, on sale from $53.50), Clutch – H&M ($34.99), Heeled Sandals – Zara ($49.90)
To send off 2019, I created this New Year’s Eve outfit with a cool, fashion-forward vibe in mind. Although this look is a bit less formal than the previous two, it still manages to pack a punch, thanks to a trendy silhouette and strategic pops of color.
This darling jumpsuit – the star of the ensemble – is pretty much the equivalent of a classic black dress. Because of this, there are so many different accent colors you could pair it with.
Personally, I like the idea of accessories that match in color. That’s why I chose this chic statement necklace and modern clutch, both of which are a loud, bright shade of red.
Lastly, I decided to go for gold strappy sandals, which contrast perfectly with both the jumpsuit and the accessories.
