New Years Eve - Some celebrate it a home with a few friends, some down the local, some a big house party, a cocktail bar, special events, or Black Tie Ball. Whatever you have planned, you'll want to find the perfect party outfit.

What is the perfect New Years Eve Party outfit? Well of course with any outfit the perfect attire depends in large on the venue. A full length evening gown with a zillion beads will guarantee you the belle of the ball at a Hollywood Glamour Ball, but a little over dressed for a House Party. And would you go to a Ball wearing skinny jeans?

There isn't one perfect outfit for New Years Eve. It doesn’t even have to be a Dress, there are dozens of Jumpsuits or Tuexdos for women available to, that are equally as on point today as an evening dress. One thing almost certain to feature in your outfits though, house party or once in a lifetime ball, is Sequins, Diamontee, Jewels or Beads. If they aren’t on the dress / jumpsuit / tuxedo, then they’ll be on your Clutch, or Shoes. New Year’s Eve is the best excuse you have all year to really go all out on the Bling. House Party, Cocktail Bar, or Ball, Bling fits the brief.

Also in abundance will be Velvet, Faux Fur and Feathers. All rich textures that are so glam in Winter. Don't construct your New Years Eve outfits to feature all of these though. Pick your favourite and let it show off, and maybe add touches of one of the others to compliment. There can only be one lead singer in a band.

I've now managed to hunt out some of the best New Year's Eve party Dresses, Jumpsuits and other ideas currently out there, on the internet, for this years parties.
