When it comes to finding the perfect outfit for your New Year’s Eve party, it all comes down to two major decisions:

The first one has an obvious impact on your clothing choices. Being outdoors enjoying a front row view of the Space Needle requires a couple more layers than a game night at your friends house.

The second one simply needs to fit your comfort level. Is this more or a relaxed setting or a formal get together? Are you going to be curled up on a couch playing games or dancing the night away with a drink in your hand? However, if you are outdoors…I think the glam may need to take a backseat to comfort. Simple decision there! 😉

For me, the decision was pretty simple. I will be indoors at a friends house this year enjoying games and plenty of wine (kinda our thing). I want to be comfy…but I need to add at least a little of the glam. I mean, this is New Years after all!

I decided on a pleated maxi skirt (with warm cozy tights underneath, of course) and this black blouse. I love that it is sleeveless because after a drink or two (and lots of laughter) I can get pretty warm.

The fur felt like the perfect holiday touch, though. What do you think? I know most people would go with the glitz and glam (which I LOVE)…but I wasn’t about to go buy a new outfit for one night so I decided to make work with what was in my closet. I love black and gold for holiday parties and New Years is no exception. I might wind up replacing the jacket with a sweater though, depending on my mood.

I hope that wherever you find yourself this New Years, you find hope for this new year to come through our Lord and Savior. Happy Holidays, friends!!!
