I hope Christmas was a happy and joyfull ocassion for everyone! And here’s hoping that the New Year brings more of that happy spirit!

I propose - to make that a reality - that on the night when the world changes from 2011 to 2012 we all get a little crazy and go outside of our comfort zones (at least regarding what we wear!).

I want to offer a few suggestions for how to think a little differently about your New Year’s outfit - and any outfit afterwards. Like I did on the previous post, I’ll separate my suggestions into categories: casual, in between and fancy.

Casual looks

Grey Sweater Dress by Torrid

I love this outfit because it’s casual with a twist of glam.

Iman Wrap Dress by Igigi

I’m in love with the shape, the pattern and the color of this dress, especially paired up with these gorgeous boots.

In Between

Try bold prints, like this gorgeous Stone Smudge Animal Tunic.

Ice Blossom Lace Insert Dress by Evans

I wish you tons of fun on New Year’s Eve and throughout the year as well! See you in 2012!
