Inspiration Boards: New Year's Eve

4 comments:
 
Now, we all know I am on the smaller side of plus sizes. However, I tend to cater to styling for plus size women because it's so much harder to find the right looks in our sizes. So, I decided to create some inspiration boards featuring outfits perfect for this New Year's Holiday celebration. Hopefully all of my plus size fashionistas, as well as standard size fashion fiends enjoy the styling choices I made. Feel inspired and get glam ladies!


LOOK 1


A great blazer in a shimmery fabric works like magic with a sequin skirt. By adding a floral top and flirty accessories (flower detail heels, croc clutch, bow headband, and elegant black jewelry), it's a great alternative to the party dress that still has a great wow factor with each element.

LOOK 2


Color is definitely a great way to ring in the New Year. By mixing purple, mauve pink, and turquoise, you get the perfect color mixing without looking like a crazy person. By keeping the rest of the elements neutral (silver, grey, and black), it keeps the look classy. Patterned tights and tweed make a sexy splash for the look. The hat can keep you warm and works as a great way to hide wild hair after leaving the party.

Lame is a very vibrant fabric. It's instantly give you the party girl vibe no matter how it's worn. This dress is no exception. The purple lame is both elegant and fun. A belt at the waist creates curves and also enhances them. Adding a faux leather jacket keeps the look cool. Patterned tights, platform pumps, and edgy/classy jewelry add the perfect touches to this "party all night" look.

LOOK 4


An alternative to matchy matchy is to wear colors that compliment each other. The only matching should be with jewelry, in order to keep the look from going to mismatched. A cream trench coat keeps you warm while adding edgy elegance to the look. A leopard print dress is perfect for a night out, giving you a wild factor. By pairing it with a bold colored pump and a softer colored clutch, the look is unique, eclectic, and still sexy.

LOOK 5


Another fun party dress and this time, we are doing matchy matchy. Something about the dress screams for a matching colored shoe, and with floral details, who can resist? Adding a motorcycle jacket adds some toughness to the look, while elegant jewelry give you the night glam every girl wants.

LOOK 6


An alternative to dresses and skirts is a sparkly top and leggings. You still get the going out factor without restricting your dance moves. By pairing it with ankle boots and a faux leather trench coat, it keeps you warm while in between clubs, as well as adds a rocker feel. The purse and jewelry are girly, yet the color of the bag, along with a feather headband, add extra color, also coordinating with the sparkly top.
