The Cozy Girl’s Guide to Dressing for New Year's Eve

December 28, 2016 Julien Garman

When it comes to New Year’s Eve, there are many varying opinions. Some say the fancier, the better. Others go all out in a particular theme based on a decade party. Then there’s girls like me - the ones who want to be a little dressy, a little cozy and a LOT of comfy. 

Now one would think that these words don’t typically mix. But I may have found the solution. Thus - I’m sharing the perfect New Year’s Eve outfit combo for the cozy girl:

ITEM 1: SEQUIN DRESS
Besides bachelorette parties, holiday soirées  and New Year’s, when does one even get to don something sparkly? I’m taking full advantage this year in this gorgeous number from South Moon Under. You may remember seeing it in this post - which is another great New Year’s Eve option for the girl who wants to be fancy but also not freeze her butt off. 

ITEM 2: A SUPER COZY SWEATER
Ring in the new year with a comfortable alternative to a jacket - introducing - the super cozy, oversized sweater. The moment I tried this on (another South Moon Under find) I knew it would be a big-time staple this season. And in fact, I’ve worn it once a week since finding it at SMU. 

ITEM 3: OVER-THE-KNEE BOOTS
I am going to run these boots INTO the ground. I got them on major sale last season and I’ve bene living in them ever since. While this trend is on the trickier side, it’s totally transformed the way I dress in the winter. These boots are *basically* pants. And they allow me to forgo wearing tights unless absolutely necessary.
