If Christmas Eve is characterized as a family night, New Year's Eve becomes a night of partying and fun to celebrate the coming year. The last night of the year is one of those occasions in which we can afford almost everything without falling into error, since it is a party where all subtlety or stridency is allowed.
In this article we will discuss the topic of how to dress at the end of the year so that you start 2020 with a bang.
A cocktail dress is a very versatile garment that you can wear both day and night. It is normally short to or below the knee. If you are a petite woman, we recommend that you always choose a dress that is above the knee. The good thing about this type of dress is that it will give you the required elegance without the discomfort of a long dress.
Black dresses can be a good option, but we recommend that this time, choose a dress with some color or some pattern. Get out of your comfort zone!
If you still want to play it safe, that's fine, choose a dark color but make sure that it includes sequins, fringes or some detail such as "bell sleeves", which is a trend this year. It is also the time to take advantage and show some skin: a good neckline, an open back, shoulders or legs. Obviously, in this aspect we recommend that you only show one thing, so as not to look vulgar.
If you are not convinced by the dress option, don't worry, there are many options: you can go with a jumpsuit, simple wide-leg pants with a tight-fitting sequined blouse, a metallic skirt with a wide top, leggings imitating leather with a long shirt, etc. The idea is to combine different colors and fabrics, but always with a piece that is the star of the outfit and the rest of the clothing is neutral.
For tonight, we recommend that you opt for an "envelope" type handbag. It is a perfect bag for going out to a party, a dinner or for the end of the year celebration.
With regard to costume jewellery, we recommend large pieces such as maxi necklaces (long and striking earrings, bracelets or rings). Combine them with a little black dress and give it the differentiating touch.
First of all, you must choose the makeup that goes with your style and with which you feel comfortable. We leave you some ideas that are trending this year:
The hairstyle par excellence for tonight is the long hair with a wet effect. This type of effect is achieved with hair gel and lacquer. Apply a little hair gel on top and leave your hair loose. Then apply lacquer to hold all night.
If you are one of those who wants to dance all night or party, you can also opt for a low tousled bun, a more casual but elegant style at the same time. You can complete this updo by leaving a few loose locks to give it a more casual touch.
Lastly, and if you are one of those who dare with everything, the root braid is an ideal updo for New Year's Eve. We already talked in another post about how to make root braids in a simple way.
Our last piece of advice is to welcome 2020 with an outfit that reflects your personality and joy. In the end, the protagonist of the night should be the attitude with which you face the coming year.
