5 Last-Minute New Year's Eve Outfits to Copy

by Matthew T. Murray in Steal Their Style


You have T-minus 30 hours until that big ass ball drops and I'm not talking about your ex-boyfriend's set of cajones. With one of the biggest nights of the year on the horizon, you're feelin' a little farklempt with what to wear tomorrow night.

Relax. Breathe. And have a glass of wine. Make that two glasses of wine. Okay three. I have all the sartorial solutions you need for New Year's Eve right here. So what if you didn't get a brand spankin' new outfit - you didn't need that gaudy sequin mini-dress anyways. The best looks to wear are the ones already floating around your closet - you just have to know how to put them together. 

And lucky for us, these six stylish celebrities show how a few minor tweaks here and there - adding a Chanel brooch to a chambray shirt or pairing a casual little black dress with Adidas - make wonderful style statements out of what you already own. Copy these looks!

WHITE JACKET + ALL BLACK EVERYTHING

Kate Moss proves she is an unstoppable force of fashion time and time again (and the girl just refuses to age!) Here, she pairs a sharp white tuxedo jacket with a black slinky tank, satin pants, simple pumps and a clutch. This is the perfect look to wear to a fancy-schmancy dinner party.

BROWN JACKET + BLACK DRESS

Candace Swanepoel's shearling is officially at the top of my need-it-or-I-might-die-a-slow-painful-death list (this J.W. Anderson jacket is also on said list). Funny how you never thought pairing a brown jacket and black dress would work and then BAM! a supermodel wears it and suddenly you want their entire look - their cheekbone structure and rock-hard abs would be nice too!

TURTLENECK + MINI-SKIRT + STRAPPY HEELS

Let's be honest - Joan Smalls could make a garbage bag look fabulous. But this outfit is particularly pretty. A floral mini-skirt is so unexpected for New Year's Eve - most chicks will be wearing some type of flimsy Forever21 dress. Pair it with a cozy turtleneck so your breasts don't get frostbitten and strappy heels so your gams look miles long and you're good to go!

LBD + SNEAKERS

Hear me out on this one! Look how amazeballs Lily Aldridge looks in this slinky black number paired with Adidas Superstars (the pitch-perfect Veronica Lake blowout is the cherry on top of a delicious sundae). Also, you can dance the night away without the fear of breaking your ankles in this look so it's a win-win, especially if you plan on clubbing with your girl gang tomorrow night.

DENIM ON DENIM

Denim for New Year's Eve?! YES! YES! YES! Rihanna shows us how it's done - as always! Give a little pizazz to a chambray shirt and distressed denim skirt with Chanel brooches and nude pumps. If you don't have a brooch, swap in a statement necklace or gold shoulder-duster earrings for a punch of style. This look is perfect to wear to your friend's house party - it's casual and cool!

P.S. Because most of these looks would induce hyperthermia, check out my round-up of the best jackets to wear on top of your New Year's Eve look!

31 Days of December, 31 Perfect Looks to Steal

by Matthew T. Murray in $hop, Steal Their Style


Let's just blame it on Gossip Girl. Since that snooty chick started stalking the pretty princesses of the Upper East Side detailing their trials and tribulations, we have grown into a generation twith no qualms with stalking. We can then place blame for this cyber-stalking phenomenon on Instagram and social media as a whole. We follow people and shamelessly stalk their lives. We've all become voyeurs finding an almost-erotic pleasure in observing people's daily rituals, outstanding outfits, and toned bodies and we've come to identify them as #goals. We want to be them. We want to look like them. We want to learn how the f@$% they get that contour. 

And while this could be a cause for concern I'll likely explore later in my RAMBLINGS sector, I'm thankful that it has become not only socially acceptable but celebrated for us to stalk. How else would we find outfit inspo for the chilly temps ahead that might freeze the tits off (let's not forget that excruciating Polar Vortex that vaguely resembled a death trap from Saw III)? These street style stars in the slideshow below serve up MAJOR style inspiration that reminds you getting dressed should be fun, even when it's as cold as 12 igloos outside.  Looking cute in winter is no easy feat - but these fashionistas prove that you can look stylish and not catch hyperthermia.
