Unless you're invited to a red carpet event, New Year's Eve is the best excuse to dress to the nines. Tacky noisemakers, hats and silly year-blaring sunglasses notwithstanding. Now you can go the easy route and simply slip on some kind of sparkling dress and embellished heels and call it 2025. But where's the fun and challenge in that? No. This year we're turning to street style for some New Year's Eve outfit inspiration.
There's plenty of inspo to be had, too. Street style stars frequently push the sartorial envelope and that's what we're looking for this time of year. Like styling silver and gold so neither come across as too one-note. Or making a suit ready for primetime. Or styling a brocade or embroidered skirt suit or a midi dress and matching blazer with statement earrings and subtle shoes (see above). Now's the time to embrace see-through fabric and all those bra tops you've been stocking up on.
Street stylists are also experts at staying toasty without sacrificing style. Which is vital if you plan on going out to watch a ball drop. Or even stepping outside for a second to get into a car.
We've already supplied makeup and hairstyle ideas for the big night. Keep reading for help deciding on your New Year's Eve outfit.
Sparkling tweed separates are a great addition to any wardrobe. If you can't afford a Chanel pairing, then just incorporate a Chanel belt and layered necklaces to get the vibe.
Instead of going with gold, opt for a mustard or goldenrod pant set instead. Round things out with a white bag and stark pumps.
Turn up the texture with a chunky red cardigan, a rosette miniskirt and lace tights. Work in ankle-strap sandals to wrap up the look.
Common New Year's Eve colors include silver, gold, red, green, white and black. Looking to stand out from the crowd? Style a blue crop top with a blue pleated maxi skirt and a blue draped jacket. Stick with neutral pumps, though.
Take a fancy red midi skirt and flaunt it with a red sweater along with a coordinating wrap. Black tights and heels plus a red clutch signal you're ready to party.
Own an embellished midi skirt? If you answered "yes," then slip on a cozy, dark-colored sweater up top. Black heels or even booties FTW.
A deep purple maxi sweater dress can read festive when teamed with a velvety black coat and black platform sandals. The gold clutch enhances the look.
A gold paillette skirt of any length is always a winner. Top it off with a white button-down and a cozy cardigan boasting gold buttons. Slip on knee-highs and pumps to wrap things up.
A red and black striped cardigan is the perfect partner for black leather pants and black boots. Feel free to add a little hair bling to polish off the look.
You'd be shocked how many fancy knit sets exist. Style one with shiny black boots and you'll be ready to ring in 2025.
A clingy, liquid silver minidress calls for black wool tights and ankle-strap heels.
Suit up for the big night. Nothing jazzes up a double-breasted suit like a red rose accent. Work in flashy footwear FTW.
Prada's skirt has reached It product status. (If you haven't already grabbed yours, look for something similiar.) Combine the must-have with a white tee, a black sweater and a belted black blazer. Patterned pumps up the ante.
Don't underestimate the value of an attention-grabbing vest. Pair a colorfully embroidered version with dark pants and a matching blazer. Dazzling drop earrings and black pumps round out the luxe look.
If you were wondering why so many brands are selling sparkling bra tops, here's your answer. It's so you can use one to spice up a basic long-sleeve shirt and skirt combo. Just incorporate a black coat and black boots and you're good to party.
Take a lace-accented top and team it with dark leggings. Then slip on a see-through maxi skirt over said leggings. An embellished bag and pumps perfectly punctuate the ensemble.
You can still rock one of your flirty short-sleeve dresses. Leather opera gloves and skin-tight boots will keep you warm.
A chic furry sweater skirt set is equal parts cool and warm. Wrap up the look with strappy sandals.
Yes, denim is an option. Go with a festive red pairing.
Gold pants and a flashy sleeveless top will have you shining brighter than the ball drop. Just make sure you take a coat with you and wear boots instead of pumps if you plan on being outside.
A tuxedo-cut blazer makes any outfit extraordinary. Like elevating a crisp white shirtdress styled with black ankle boots with white socks peeking out the top.
Fringe is fantastic. Full stop. Wear a long-sleeve knit dress with a fringed skirt. Or team a sweater with a separate yet coordinating fringed skirt. Finish things off with pumps and bold earrings.
Nothing says New Year's Eve like a matching gold crop top and maxi skirt. You can never have too much bling on this night so go for the gold sequin bag.
Crush your outfit by sporting a velvet suit in any color. Amp up the look with gold jewelry.
Balance a bold blazer dress with a pair of thigh-high black boots.
Style a little gray cardigan with a silver sequin skirt. A long necklace and glitzy footwear enhance the ensemble.
Sometimes all you need is a satin or silk shirt with interesting sleeves. Partner yours with black jeans and studded boots.
