Auld Lang Syne.

 {outfit info}

It's never too early to plan an outfit, right?  If I had an unlimited budget this is what I would wear for New Year's Eve.  I love any excuse to wear anything that sparkles and New Year's Eve is certainly the best of all excuses for unadulterated bling.  

I just want to say that I am obsessed with this cocktail ring.  Isn't it amazing?!  I thought it went so perfectly with this dress.  I die.  

And, you know me -- I'm always dying to throw in some color and, better yet, an interesting color combination.  I know it's not for everyone, and it would be so simple to use a black clutch instead.  However, I think that the pairing of the two colors stands up to the flashiness of the dress yet doesn't compete with it.  And that is exactly what this dress needs, otherwise it might look like the dress is wearing you.
