Everybody wants to rock a wonderful look for New Year’s Eve and that makes some of us spend hours looking for the perfect outfit, makeup, and hairstyle. But when it comes to those shiny statement pieces full of glitter, sequins, metallics many fear they might be too much.
How are we supposed to combine them? Leave all those fears aside and get ready to incorporate these sparkly elements into your holiday look with these infallible tips.
Stick to one color
Either gold, silver, rose gold, or any shiny colored version; stick to just one of those options and let that piece be the center of your whole look. It can be a blouse, a dress, your eyeshadow, or your shoes; pick that one thing that represents your style and makes you feel confident, then start combining it.
Complement the shine
Ideally, you can pair this statement piece with some neutrals for the perfect combo. You can never go wrong with solid black or white clothing but if you want to go a little bit further on color, try earthy tones. Pick accent pieces that not only you can combine together but also work perfectly with your body shape and style.
Accessorize accordingly
Don´t go overboard with accessories. These little details can either complement your look and make it a complete fashion statement or just ruin it and make it look too extravagant.
Remember that you already picked your main piece and the rest should just work around it. You can go for more discrete jewelry like thin, small necklaces, little earrings, and a couple of classic rings to amp up your outfit.
Final touches
We’ve talked all about the right outfit but now, we are just missing hair and makeup. This is one of the easiest and fun parts of getting ready but not the least important. Identify what works better for your face structure and take full advantage of those elements. Try working with classic hairstyles like a straight high ponytail or natural curled waves that will make you look amazing along with a matte or slightly shimmery makeup look.
The fear to shine is now definitely over and these upcoming holidays are the perfect time to put this guide to the test!
