Ring in 2018 in Style!

Happy New Year, everyone!

Still searching for the perfect outfit with only a few hours to go? Search for anything black in your closet and add all the sparkles and baubles you can! That’s always been my trick since no one will really be able see straight come 11:30 anyway ;).

Desperate for something new to ring in the new year though? I hear ya. We only have a few hours left in 2017 but you still have time! We’re laying low this year but if we were going out, I’d definitely rock something velvet & cozy (it’s like 0 degrees in NYC today) like the navy velvet dress below that I wore this a few weeks ago to Mike’s company holiday party).  Again, you can always nab something sparkly like this Top Shop dress from Nordstrom (I searched for in-store availability in a few zip codes and it’s still around!) or any navy or black dress or (my preference) jumpsuit like this one from Banana Republic and pair it with anything sparkly you can (such as this gorgeous clutch from Banana that has a BUILT-IN PHONE CHARGER – pictured below in navy) and you’ll be good to go.  BTW, that clutch is now HALF OFF, plus 2% cash back on Ebates!

Whatever you wear and however you celebrate, just be sure to have fun & don’t forget to swing by the store to pick up some champs!

Wishing all of you a very happy & healthy new year – see you in 2018!
