I'm typically not a big New Year's Eve girl—sequins and glitter are pretty scarce in my closet. But after the past few years of lockdowns and pajamas, the idea of glamming it up for a night actually sounds refreshing. Whether you're planning to close out 2022 at a big event or a low-key get-together with friends, there's something surprisingly exciting about going all out in the wardrobe department this NYE.
Since I don't own too many options that fit the bill, I scoured the internet for the best sequin, shimmer, and metallic outfit options to ensure I'm adequately prepared for New Year's Eve. From statement shoes to beaded bags to sequin-adorned dresses, there are endless glamorous options to choose from this year. And since we're all collectively prepping for the same night, I figured I'd share my findings here. So whether you want to go head-to-toe sparkle or simply add a festive accessory to your favorite black dress, there's something here for everyone. Keep scrolling to see and shop the best NYE glitter outfits so we can—as Taylor Swift says—make the whole place shimmer.
