Your First Outfit of 2017 – Better Make it a Good’un!
Picture the scene – the clock is ticking down to the New Year, you have a drink in your hand and are getting ready to sing Auld Lang Syne and bid farwell to 2016. But are you at a fabulous party with your nearest and dearest, getting ready for a Champagne toast? Or are you welcoming 2017 with a cosy shindig at home, eliminating the worry of the dreaded taxi race post-12pm?
No matter what your plans are, what better way to say hello to a new year and a new start, than with a fabulous outfit. We have an impressive array of shops to choose from at Elephant Yard, and we’ve picked our favourite party pieces to help you make that first outfit one to remember.
You can channel your inner flapper girl with this 1920s inspired fringed skirt from Next (£48).
If you’re out and about as the clock strikes midnight and have to face the challenge of finding a taxi at 2am, do it in style with this gorgeous belted coat, also from Next (£115).
Want to REALLY make an impression this New Year? We have the perfect dress for you – this showstopping number by Monsoon is sure to make heads turn, and looks much more expensive than its £119 price tag.
We’ve also fallen a little bit in love with this Sofia sequin dress from Monsoon (£109), because we all know New Year’s Eve isn’t New Year’s Eve without a bit of sparkle!
Block heels are much comfier than stilettos, so you’ll be grateful for these pretty sandals from Next (£38) after hours on the dancefloor.
We hope you all have a wonderful New Year’s Eve and a happy 2017, from all the team at Elephant Yard.
