The Retail Therapy Diaries: Ringing in the New Year

Whether you're going out to a fancy party, a family reunion, or just spending the night out with friends, today's post has you covered for New Years! I'll be spending New Years eve with my best buddies making dinner, enjoying a few drinks, and staying up ridiculously late playing games and laughing till our sides hurt! Then I'll be spending New Years day with my family. We have our annual bingo tournament which is always exciting since it involves prizes! What are some of your New Years plans? Have any favorite family traditions? Share them with me. I'd love to hear what makes your New Years special!

LOOKS FOR ANY NEW YEARS OCCASION

Standout amongst a sea of little black dresses by adding a unique touch to yours with a splash of pastel mint green! Finish off the look with some black peep-toe pumps, gold chain necklace, and a chic studded white clutch! Watch out for spilled drinks and have a blast ringing in the New Year with a pretty outfit!

Dress: Fab Satin Ruffle Dress $13.50 (Forever 21)

Necklace: Spiked and Pearlescent Necklace $9.80 (Forever 21)

Shoes: Patent Leatherette Peep Heels $11.99 (Forever 21)

Bag: Lulu Crisscross Sequin Clutch $11.00 (Nordstrom)

Being reunited with family you haven't seen in a while is always exciting. Add a festive holiday touch with a slouchy feminine burgundy sweater and pair it with some black shorts, and pretty lace tights. This outfit definitely looks put together but isn't cocktail party fancy. Of all the looks this is probably my favorite!

Top: Batwing-Sleeve Pointelle Sweater $45.00 (Yes Style)

Shorts: Sailor Front Piped Shorts $15.80 (Forever 21)

Tights: Betsey Johnson Lacy Tights $9.97 (Nordstrom)

Earrings: Feminine Stud Set $2.80 (Forever 21)

Shoes: Simply Vera Vera Wang Flats $29.97 (Kohl's)

Just hanging out with a group of close friends? Put together an outfit that's equal parts casual and dressy. Add a touch of New Years fun with a sparkly tank and layer a denim jacket to dress down the pretty piece. Finish off the look with some dark wash skinny jeans, riding boots, and a chic satchel. Perfect for a special dinner or just hanging out!

Tank: Floral Sequin Tank $29.00 (Old Navy)

Jacket: Roll Sleeve Crop Jacket $28.50 (Wet Seal)

Jeans: Hollister Jegging $49.50 (Hollister)
