These days, we have so many ways to ring in the new year: casual house get-togethers, themed parties, and good old-fashioned black tie affairs. Below are some ideas for any kind of fete you’ll be attending for 2012. (Click the image to learn more about this Max Studio gown.)
Casual get-together
Make your new year’s a little more memorable than any other night in a simple sequined top or statement jewelry that will dress up your fave jeans.

Themed party
A simple dress paired with a few simple accessories according to the theme will work great for a last-minute party look. A slim black, strappy dress, pearls knotted low, a feather boa and a simple feather headband (try any costume shop) is great for a Roaring 20s theme. Masquerade looks are complete with a whimsical bubble dress, statement jewels, and a decadent mask.
