Be a rule breaker. even when all you're really doing is taking that sequin-covered mini dress and pulling it out on January 2 and beyond. Consider pairing it with more casual footwear to keep it more everyday whimsy and less night out at a party.

Some of our most favourite NYE finds aren't dresses or skirts at all. The outerwear is what makes the difference, but don't let that make you think it's closet-bound post-holiday. In fact, we love wearing our most head-turning outerwear with pants and dresses alike, come January 2.

A sheer black dress and sequin jacket geet the post-holiday treatment with the addition of a pair of flats—especially when you style them with retro-looking mid-calf socks for added detail.

Layer, layer, layer. A trick we love whether NYE or not, it's widely proven in the fashion-loving world that the addition of a bodysuit or shirt underneath an otherwise party dress-styled piece will instantly transform your whole look.

Denim is a huge wardrobe saver for all those times you're trying to re-purpose an evening look for daytime. We particularly love pairing our leather minis with graphic tees and oversized jean jackets to create a go-to look for day or night.
