What are you doing New Year’s Eve? It should definitely involve this blue velvet dress. There are so many things I love about it, from the puff sleeves to body hugging cut, to the beautiful velvet, it’s such a great piece and under $20.

It’s perfect for winter parties (including New Year’s Eve!), or Valentine’s day – or even work when paired with a blazer. It’s not too short, and the right length for fun booties. The best part is it’s warm, so if you live somewhere with *fun* winter weather, this dress will not make you shiver at the thought of going out.

My faux fur vest is such a good basic. It makes any outfit a little fancy, and comes in four colors. At under $40, I’m thinking of getting a second color. I’ve been wearing it all week with jeans and a tee, but it also looks awesome with any dress.

I am loving sock booties. Pair them with skinny jeans, leggings, and dresses long or short. I’ve been wearing my pair all season making them one of my favorite purchases. If you need something dressy, but do not want to freeze at your event, this is your perfect option. I’ve linked everything below – with express shipping you may be able to get this dress in time for December 31.
