New Year's Eve Dresses: What Outfits To Wear To Impress This 2016/2017 Holiday

With New Year’s Eve coming Saturday, it’s now offvcially time to get a New Year’s Eve outfit in order.

While prices for a sparkly new dress you will likely only wear once could run you in the hundreds, now is likely the time that end-of-year sales should result in the slashing of prices. The trouble, however, will be finding a truly unique item from a sea of picked-over and picked-through gowns, blazers and suits.

Fortunately, retailers like H&M and Zara always seem to have an assortment of festive garb available for less than $100. Here are some last-minute outfit options to consider for your New Year’s festivities.

Jumpsuits: Ditch the sparkly dress altogether for a slightly more ‘70s-appropirate outfit. A pleated navy jumpsuit will lend itself to a more romantic vibe (and this piece from Zara will only set you back $60). Jumpsuits are a great item for New Year’s Eve because they will likely get more wear – switch up the shoes and eye-catching accessories and this garment will be office-ready.

Men’s Button-Ups And Dress Shirts: Look no further than your local H&M, guys. The store is currently offering up to 80 percent off of select men’s women’s and kid’s apparel. There is even next day shipping if you really want to cut it close. A crisp, white cotton button-up is available for less than $10 – which means there is no excuse to not dress up this NYE.

Festive Dresses: Some might say the sequined dress is overrated, but honestly — when will you actually have the opportunity to wear something so obnoxiously sparkly? If you order by Friday, a dress from Nasty Gal will arrive just in time for any New Year’s bash you might be attending. From the sequined and the shimmery to the lacy and the luxe, Nasty Gal has an enviable array of NYE dresses and gowns, many still available for under $90.

Accessories: Party City. That’s right. Sometimes, all you need are the right party accessories. And Party City (or any other party store, for that matter) will have no shortage of festive items. From tinsel and glitter to sparkly headbands and black felt top hats, go nuts with the accessories and glitter paint instead of springing for an entirely new outfit.
