Turn Heads This Year: The Perfect Dresses for Ringing in 2013

Blog· Entertainment

Sexy young woman in tight-fitting olive dress. IsolatedEvery girl wants to ring in the New Year in the perfect party dress, but with so many cute fashion trends this year, what style should you choose? Don’t take too long to decide – wait until the last minute, and you’ll likely get stuck with all the fashion rejects. Here’s a guide to this season’s hottest New Year’s Eve dresses:

Shine in Metallic Tones

One of this season’s hottest trends is all about gold, gunmetal and silver. For a fun and flirty look, try any of the sparkly tube dresses that are cut above the knee; for added flair, find one with pockets (this makes stashing a lip gloss or phone easy, too).

Put a Spin on the Little Black Dress

You can never go wrong with the classic little black dress. Sass it up this year and go low-cut and floor-length; add extra sassy points for black sequins, which are in this year.

Love Your Curves in Fishtail Hems

Accentuate every curve of your body with the glamorous fishtail hem. This style has been spotted on celebs Cat Deeley, Allison Williams and Sofia Vergara, and they look amazing with any skin tone, body type and dress material. For a glitzy glam look, go with one decked out with sequins; if you’re shooting for simple and elegant, you can find a variety of styles from strapless to capped sleeves in satin finishes.

Go Geometric With Color Blocking

Another curve-loving trend is contrasting dark and light paneling designs, aka “color blocking.” This look first became trendy a few decades ago and is gaining popularity now, too. Keep it simple with black, gray and white color blocking shades.

Try the Next Big Thing: Peplum

Maybe you haven’t heard the term, but you’ve seen the style: When a short, fitted skirt is attached to the waist of the dress, that’s peplum. Not only is this look slimming and flattering for every body type, it comes in bold colors and striking prints. Try pairing it with a suede ankle boot that compliments the color of your dress.

Don’t Forget Accessories

Be warned, though; you can’t just grab any old necklace from your collection and pair it with one of these stunning dresses. Watch out for clashing and mismatching, such as pairing a gold necklace with a silver metallic dress. A rhinestone collar necklace is a classy, safe bet.

Don’t be afraid of belts, either. Experiment with a variety of widths and details – they can bring your dress to the next level while accentuating your waist line.

When it comes to shoes, make sure you find the right heel to compliment your dress. Obviously, you don’t want a suede heel boot with a fishtail hem dress. When all else fails, stick with a simple nude heel or a black, strappy number.

Happy New Year!

One of my favorite things about 2020.... businesse One of my favorite things about 2020.... businesses adapting and making things work! I was recently introduced to @savageburritos and I'm in love.  Savage Burritos is the love child of Uncle Julios so it you like UJ, you'll love Savage.  They are a delivery only service offering burritos and bowls from select Uncle Julio kitchens in DFW.

I know this year has dragged on and on for many pe I know this year has dragged on and on for many people but it has flown by to me. I'm 100% sure it has something to do with welcoming Myles into this world during the height of a pandemic and keeping a toddler alive at the same time.  I can't wait for Christmas morning to make memories with my little family (even though Christmas shopping isn't complete and I haven't even thought about wrapping presents). It will all fall in to place, it always does. We didn't attend our favorite Christmas events this year or get pictures with Santa so this random Santa picture will do and I'm 100% happy with it.  If this year has taught you anything,  let it be finding the joy in the little things ❤
The holidays are quickly approaching! 🎄 Althoug The holidays are quickly approaching! 🎄 Although things might be a bit different this season, we're still enjoying some of our favorite foods and traditions. This year we're incorporating ordering family meal kits from @chuysrestaurant for not only my family but extended family that we might not be able to hang with this holiday.  It's a simple way to spread the joy with loved ones, eat delicious food and not forget the reason for the season.  #ad #nachoaverageholiday
Family pictures are always so much fun.... this ye Family pictures are always so much fun.... this year we got to attempt it twice thanks to sweet Bryce.  Thankfully the second time around he cooperated. As painful as they may be,  I'm so glad we get these done every year. I love looking back at them and see how much we've all changed and how much the kids have grown!
Can y'all believe the end of the year is here? We Can y'all believe the end of the year is here? We got our family pictures back and they look great other than the fact that Bryce decided not to participate. We got one shot with my entire family and Bryce is off to the side playing in poison ivy. 🤦‍♀️

I wanted to send a quick thank you for all the birthday love yesterday! Birthdays are not my favorite day but it was nice to hear from so many people. Here's to another year around the sun ❤
This weekend we ventured to @kidzaniausa, a city r This weekend we ventured to @kidzaniausa, a city ran completely by kids. Your child gets to fully immerse themselves into role playing any job they can imagine. From checking animals at the veterinarian, putting out fires as a firefighter,  flying planes in an simulator, creating their own personal logo with Bic, or being a weatherman at WFAA - the options are endless! Kidzania activities are for ages 4 and up.

We felt very comfortable inside with their safety protocols. Temperatures were checked before entering.  Everybody ages 4 and up must wear a mask.  Hand sanitizer was readily available throughout the entire space.  If you're looking for a fun outlet for your child to explore, check it out!
