New Years Eve is a fabulous excuse in the calendar year to get inordinately merry on champagne and a chance to wear whatever highly over dressed glamorous outfit you’ve been sitting on all year for the first time ever. I do enjoy a good NYE shin dig, but i’m afraid to say i’m not one for braving the town and nearest discotheque … no no. I am a grandma at heart and so my new years eve is most frequently spent having cocktails with my dearest buddies at whoever’s house is up for grabs that year.
This year we’re having a chinese buffet, cocktails from around the globe and no doubt plenty of wine and dancing. My friend Kat (jemimaandted) is having all us girls over and our boyfriends too and i’m in charge of Mojito’s. But despite the fact it’s a dinner party esque evening, we’ll all still be getting glammed up to the nines and partying the night away in the lounge :)
I can’t say i’m fully decided on an oufit for the evening yet, but this Motel Rocks playsuit is certainly high on my list (that and my gold knee length Topshop midi dress). I got this dress as a gift from the Christmas party Motel hosted this year and I absolutely love how glamorous it is.
I actually have worn this once already, to my work Christmas party as the theme was ‘hot hot hot’ so I styled it as if I was a carnival girl. And yes, it did take me a few glasses of wine to get some dutch courage to parade my buttocks around like this.
What will you be doing and more importantly wearing this new years eve? I’d love to hear your plans & see your outfits.
And on a cheesy little end note, seeing as it is the end of 2012 which has been a very exciting year for me with starting my blog & seeing it grow so much, I wanted to say thank you. To anyone that reads my blog, comments on my posts, likes my outfits or chats to me on twitter. I know everyone probably says it, but I truly am so grateful for all your support & interest :) Here’s to a fantastic 2013 … CHEERS

Awhh this is lovely (sometimes the best NYE’s are the quieter ones), and the playsuit is awesome (I love the back)!
