With the holiday season upon us, the invites to all the parties might seem endless. Of course, this also means that your outfit planning process might seem endless as well. Though coming up with outfits is quite fun at first, after a while, your time and creativity start to wear thin, and before you know it, the party you hadn't thought about since the initial invite is already around the corner and you don't know what you're going to wear. We've all been there, but there's no need to panic. Trust us.

Let’s say the situation above happens to you but for New Year's Eve. Before you stress out, look closely at your closet. You likely already have a few items that can be easily put together to create last-minute looks that look anything but. For example, a sheer top can easily be worn with your jeans and a maxi dress but just need one more layer to become a complete look, one-and-done dresses with statement sleeves will do all the talking, and track pants will look 10 times better with a blazer. Each item you have in your wardrobe simply needs to be seen in a new light. What’s more in line with the spirit of a new year than that, really?

So, we’ve rounded up a few of our favorite last-minute New Year’s Eve outfits from Instagram so you can see that there’s no need to be alarmed and that you can put together a truly stunning look in no time.
