The end of the year has a way of sneaking up on you—and that usually means scrambling for New Year’s Eve outfit ideas at the very last minute (and finding out that nearly everything festive and on trend for winter at the nearest store is pretty much sold out, with only a few loose sequins left behind). But no more! This time around we’re getting a head start on our NYE looks with these tried-and-true outfit formulas, all of which are guaranteed to make you the best dressed guest at your party.
Whether you’re planning to light up the dance floor looking like a human disco ball, or you’re planning on staying in with a few friends and good food, there’s a winter outfit here just waiting to turn heads.
Ready to go full glam? These are the best New Year’s outfits to wear anywhere this year.

Care to go classic this New Year’s Eve? Gold and black are your best bet. Like in the refined look above, a gold dress and a matching headband (black-tie messy bun optional) make a festive pair. Top it off with some slouchy black boots and a coordinating bag (with gold hardware, of course), then go dazzle the crowd.

Whether you’re staying in with friends or enjoying a low-key night at your favorite restaurant, there’s nothing quite as nonchalantly elegant as tossing on your fanciest pajama set and a pair of satin heels. You’ll look great and be ready for bed as soon as your social battery runs out—just about the perfect New Year’s Eve setup.
