PRET-A-PARTY | 3 Rocking NYE Outfits

Originally posted in The Fashion Scoop

New Year's Eve always turns out to be a toss-up. Do you brave the crowds to party in public, risking over-priced everything for the possibility of an epic night, or just keep it cozy at home with your favourites? Do you ring in the New Year with reams of ambitious resolutions or just chalk it up to another day like all the rest? I'm the last-minute type when it comes to NYE decisions. Right now, I'm debating between an 11th hour trip to the LCBO for bubbly or begging my mom to watch our kids so we can hit up our favourite restaurant (if we can get in...not likely, I know...), but no matter what we end up doing tonight, there will be sequins. Oh yes, there will be sequins. Because whether you make it maje or opt to keep it low-key, a brand new year deserves a seriously memorable outfit.

No matter how routiney or predictable we become, there's something about the end of the year that inspires us to believe; We believe we can get out of that massive rut, that we can tranform into that person we've always wanted to become, that we can change for the better. After a week-long binge-fest, I've already made some mental resolutions that I hope to keep, though I know that every year, sometime around January 13th, I'll likely slip back into at least a few old habits.

Regardless, a girl can always dream - and in my laid-back holiday state, as I lie here happily ensonced on my couch, watching piles of movies with my kids and trying to muster up the effort to hit the toboggan hill, I've already dreamt up some stellar New Year's Eve outfits. I figure by the time the 31st rolls around, I'll be very ready to toss aside my well-worn pajama pants and get back into my heels to kick in the brand new year. Here's to wishing and hoping and for all of us, a truly wonderful 2013.
