The Post-New Year Bash!

“Post New Year! The very word brings joy to our hearts. No matter how we may dread the rush, the long lists for gifts and cards to be bought and given--when the day comes there is still the same warm feeling we had as children, the same warmth that enfolds our hearts and our homes.”

The post-New Year season is here, and beckons for an elevated level of dressing.  Though it’s tricky to find something that is not-so-festive and at the same time appropriate, one of the best ways to achieve a dazzling look is combining sequins with a bow tie.  

Why a bow tie? Well, a bow tie will add a level of sophistication that sometimes even a sparkly outfit lacks. Opt for a dress or a skirt but pay attention to the length when putting the ensemble together. A knee length pencil skirt in a shimmering fabric will look elegant and chic.  Perk up your look with a metallic clutch and a big and beautiful cocktail ring.

A sequin dress is also a great idea because of the sparkling sensation it arises. There’s nothing sexier than showing just enough. Add some sparkly little studs and a cocktail ring to complete the look!  On the flip side, you can even wear this dress with a blazer. Pull your hair back into a sleek bun and you are ready to pour some Salsa on the floor.

If you a fan of Denim, then pick your favorite coloured sequin top (Black, off white, silver, gold) and synch it with a pair of denims which you are most comfortable in. Blow-dry those tresses, pull off a red lipstick and enjoy being brighter than the crackers in the sky. Complete the look with a pair of pencil heels or block heels.

And if none of this works, I still have something from my personal closet, which you just can’t afford to ignore. A lacy black dress will make sure that you have a brilliant opportunity to stand out in the crowd. Grace this dress with black heels and diamond studs to complete the look. And last but not the least, carry a lot of joy and forgiveness in your heart ‘Because it’s love in the heart which puts love in the air’.
