I'm taking notes from Sienna Miller and wearing a luxurious silver sequin dress this New Year's Eve
If you're stuck on what to wear this New Year's Eve, a silver sequin dress is the ultimate solution.


New Year's Eve dressing is always a challenge because by this point you've probably exhausted your Christmas party wardrobe! However a classic sequin dress never fails to make a statement. Sienna Miller's 2015 Cannes look is the perfect example of how stylish and effective sequins can be.
Of course, figuring out what to wear on New Year's Eve will depend on where and what you are doing to celebrate. But I think a sequin dress can work for both a dinner with friends, or a full-on party. For me, it's always going to be big - the best way to ring the year in is to go all out, even if that means wearings sequins in your living room! Plus there are plenty of options when it comes to length, cut and silhouette, so it's certain that there is sequin dress that will suit everyone.
