My NYE plans changed abruptly – my poor sister was going to host a bash and came down with a horrible stomach bug that has been traveling around our extended family and neighborhood.  We're not sure exactly what we plan to do this evening, we have a babysitter and two bottles of bubbly in the fridge and I plan on picking up sushi on the way back from dropping Emerson off at my mom's house.  There's a few activities going on in town, but we're not against just rining in the new year snuggling together on the couch!

So instead of what I was going to wear to the party, I decided to do something more comfortable and low key, but still with plenty of sparkle and shine! I saw this sequined sweater on eBay many years ago and they sold it as a dress; even when I was a size 10 this baby was NOT long enough to be a dress. I wore it once before with a flippy skirt and tights, but it made my body look a lot like a barrel. With jeggings and heels, my midsection is better balanced, and I don't feel as much like a goth disco ball!

Happy New Year everyone!

  1. How in the name of all that is holy, could that be considered a dress? It’s a nice top, but dress?! Anyway, Happy New Year to you – hope you had a nice night, in spite of your change of plans.

  2. Adorable! What an amazing vintage find. And, I’m all for party on the couch withs sushi and bubbly. Sounds perfect! Happy near year, lady!!
