While Christmas tends to be a time of tradition, New Year is a time to make resolutions, try something different, be more daring and stand out.

Style and comfort dont have to be mutually exclusive.

As you will be celebrating until at least midnight, you wont want heels you cant walk in at the end of the night.

If you find stilettos uncomfortable, opt for block or kitten heels instead.

NYE outfit: A sequin suit

While sequin dresses will be seen aplenty on the dance floor on New Years Eve, how about taking the sequin trend and going for something different.

A sequin suit will make an even bigger impact. Plus, you can always wear your jacket and pants as separates throughout the rest of the year.
