A New Year’s Outfit You Already Have

Casual new years eve outfit idea by To Vogue or BustCan you believe NYE is only a few days away? I’ve said it a billion times over this holiday season but the fact is, I feel like time is flying by faster than ever and I honestly can’t believe we’re about to say goodbye to one year and hello to another! In classic “me” form, I never really plan out my outfit ahead of time for NYE—part of the reason is because I’m just not a good enough planner, and part of it is because the older we get, the less concrete our plans usually are!

New years eve outfit ideas nordstrom silver dress by To Vogue or BustI love a good party, but I can’t say I’m that sad that NYE seems to be less and less of a huge blow-out night for us—I love going for our traditional 5K run on the 1st and doing the Penguin Plunge, and trust me, it’s pretty painful with a hangover. So needless to say, as all of us are slowing down with the big blow-out parties, it’s more casual get-togethers and so naturally, more casual looks!

Think sequins, feathers, a cheery tone, etc.

Cashmere or wool are always great options because as natural fibres, they’re actually breathable and luxe enough to not take the outfit down a notch. Worst case, if it gets too hot, you can just ditch it!

Add in a nude clutch, nude heels and lots of sparkle thanks to some statement earrings and layered jewelry and you’re set!

This Mackage trench is the perfect topper to this whole neutral, breezy-toned look.

new years eve outfit inspiration by To Vogue or BustSo to recap, all you need for this is a slinky dress (bonus points if it’s a NYE dress you’ve formerly worn, breathing new life into it!), a luxe sweater, coordinating heels and some sparkle and you’re good to go! The layered dress look is one I love year round but this is such a great option for more casual NYE parties when you still want to give a nod to the holiday without going full-tilt.
