Today I’m teaming up with the ladies at Take Time for Style to share some New Year’s Eve Outfit Inspiration. Kristin and Megan have a casual look and I’m styling an Eliza J fit and flare dress for a dressier look.
I’m a huge fan of Eliza J dresses. They seem to fit me well and I’m always pleased with the quality.
The fit and flare style is very feminine. Something about this style reminds me of the Scarlett O’Hara era. I just need a corset to tighten my waist. Haha!
The cold-shoulder cutouts bring a contemporary feel which makes it a not-so-boring little black dress.
This dress also has an exposed back-zip closure. Another cute detail!
Since I was styling this for New Year’s Eve, I added some fun black pantyhose to the outfit.
A statement necklace is fun to add to an outfit. This statement necklace is from the Loft but unfortunately it’s sold out online.
My handbag is from TJ Maxx. TJ Maxx has a great selection of dressy handbags and clutches.
A colorful coat would be perfect to add to this New Year’s Eve outfit if the weather is cold. So, do you have New Year’s Eve plans? Or will you be ringing in the New Year in a comfy pair of pajamas?

Beauty For the Heart~~My heart is heavy today for Berlin. It’s hard to understand why anyone would want to hurt innocent people.
Join me as we pray for all the families that have been affected by this senseless tragedy.

Have a blessed day!

I ordered this as soon as I saw it on you. It is GORGEOUS and I love the pockets. I have no plans for NYE as of now, but this adorable dress can’t stay hanging in the closet!

Many blessings to you and your family this Christmas season!
P.S. The dress 👗 looks amazing on you!
You look amazing!! I love the dress!! You need to find a party to go too so you can wear that outfit!!!!
Love it! Thanks so much!!!
I’m with you, Cyndi. After years attending NYE affairs, I now like to stay at home with my hubby. Who better to celebrate with but the person you love the most.
I love the dress! You’ve accessorized with the perfect hose, necklace and high heels. Beautiful!
I LOVE Eliza J fit & flare dresses. This one is my favorite LBD to wear. I feel like Jackie O in it! 🙂
This looks great on you, maybe you need to go to an early dinner somewhere then get in your jammies to watch the ball drop just so you can wear it! LOL!
Whoops – forgot the link

Gorgeous. If your husband sees that picture, he will want to take you out and show you off.
Super cute, Cyndi!!! I love the hose for added interest. They are just the right touch!
I too do not go out for New Year’s Eve, but I have a couple of events in January and loved this dress. It is on sale for $82.80 but they only have a size 8 left. Bummed as I love this dress and it looks great on you. I love the pumps also.
I too feel awful about everything going on in our world. I am putting my faith in God that he will make things good again.
Have a great week. It must have been cold the day you shot these photos as you looked a little cold.
Lovely outfit.Perfect for New Year’s Eve, or to attend an evening holiday performance of the symphony, ballet, etc. I may need to run to Nordstroms before seeing Houston Ballet’s Nutcracker tomorrow night!
We are usually with close friends on New Year’s Eve. We take turns hosting. So, not pj’s, but jeans and a cute sweater are my plan.
I know this is a busy week for your husband, and with Christmas Day being on Sunday, Christmas morning he will be working. Praying for you and all pastor families. I appreciate how you all share them with your congregations, and not just at Christmas.Many blessings to you all.
Love your dress! I too will be in my pajamas with my hubby at home on New Years Eve. It is not worth going out to us. Enjoy your day!
You look so pretty in black and this is beautiful on you! As a blond, now mixed with gray, I have never been able to wear black close to my face. I, too am heavy hearted. A friend who has been waiting for 4 years for the perfect heart now has kidney cancer and he and his family are devastated! He has a 12 year old son and a lovely wife, who is pending back surgery. Would anyone who knows how to pray please pray for this family with me? Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!
I’m so sorry Janice. Praying.
I am joining you in praying for your friend, Janice. <3
Prayers for God’s healing hand in this family situation! Also for comfort and peace as they wait! So sorry!
I will be praying for them too.
Janice praying with you for this family. i am so so sorry.
Blessings,
Cyndi
Perfection
You look great! Love the fit and flare style – and love the patterned tights. Have a great Christmas and New Year. Home for New Year’s and definitely in pj’s! 🙂
This is perfect! I love the fact that it’s not sleeveless – I’ve never understood sleeveless in the dead of winter unless of course you’re very young and plan on a lot of dancing :).
I have no plans except to be home, warm, cozy and safe :).
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
I always stay home with my hubby in my pj’s. Love the dress.
You look SMASHING!!
Gorgeous outfit, Cyndi!! You look stunning. Totally nailed it!! Merry Christmas:)
Beautiful! I love fit & flare too- on petites it works well . It looks perfect on you! No plans here, probably just dinner & a movie.
So pretty! Love the dress and the hose. 🙂 We don’t go out on NYE night, but we do go out for lunch. No one is out at lunchtime on NYE! We go to our favorite special occasion restaurant, order more expensive food than we would usually have, and always order dessert. We’ve done this for the last four years, I think. We talk about our goals and dreams for the new year. It’s one of our favorite holiday traditions.
What a wonderful idea!
Thank you, Sandra!
What a great idea! My husband hates dressing up and staying up till midnight! Your idea is a very good alternative! Thanks!
Thank you, Linda! Enjoy!
I LOVE THIS!!!! Those textured hose and that necklace make it. So so cute. We are flying home from Maine on NYE and if all goes well, we’ll attend a neighborhood party that night. I’m sharing my NYE outfit in a few days. 🙂
You look beautiful. Just perfect. Love it.
