New Year's Sparkle


As New Year ’s Eve is only a day away, I’m seeing many people, friends included, doing their last minute shopping.  I’m getting calls like, “I want something simple, that won’t cost a fortune and I can reuse.  But something that still looks appropriate for New Year’s Eve.  So what is my solution!?  Well I’ll tell you! Stick to finding a sexy, yet mommy appropriate black dress and grab yourself a pair of these!
  
These glittered heels are immensely popular right now and they are a quick way to jazz up any outfit.  They come from a variety of different designers ranging in varying price points as well as heel heights.  If you’re not a typical heel wearer then I would opt for a cheaper pair just to get you through the occasion.

How to wear them?  Remember, this should be the statement piece so hopefully the dress you have is sleek, sexy, with very little detail.  You want the shoes to be the accent piece.  If you’re going to do a silver glitter or gold, stick to matching accessories, and remember you’re a person not a Christmas tree, less is more.  Stick to one top to bottom.  Meaning: an earring, and bracelet and a cocktail ring, or maybe a necklace, a cuff and some bangles.  The purse can be a neutral or complimentary color, but again, details should be simple and compliment the look with balance, not overwhelm the eye.
Charlotte Russe $35.50


If you’re going to do a colored glitter, stick to crystal jewelry or again gold or silver.  If you match red glitter, with red accessories it gets to matchy matchy.  Instead compliment the color with a matching lipstick or smoky eye with a hint of the color in it.  It’s sure to be a crowd pleaser.  I want all you mom’s to have a safe and fun New Year’s Eve., stay fabulous and see you in 2012!!!
