Metallics, sequins, and glitter — they're fun and all, but you run the risk of looking chintzy and cheap. Here are some new ideas for glitzing up, from casual and tomboy-ish to all-out “glam.”
Easy but Cool:
With slouchy pants and matte gold accessories, this is the outfit you wear if you're not really doing anything on New Year's Eve but going out to dinner.
Effortless but Glitzy:
Here's a similar idea but in silver instead. The importance of staying comfy is not something to underestimate! You can wear a slouchy shirt and slouchy pants and still look like you tried just enough.
Keeping it Disheveled:
Even if you can't bother with an updo or heels, you'll still get noticed in that shiny metallic motorcycle jacket.
Shiny Dress, Bold Accessories:
Keeping it simple, clean and geometric guarantees that you won't come anywhere close to crossing the "tacky party girl" line.
