Lauren Conrad: If it's a more formal affair you're attending, follow Conrad's lead with a timeless metallic gown. (Photo via Axelle/Getty)
Anthropologie Savannah Dress ($298): The sheer detail makes this gold gown feel even more special.
Lupita Nyong'o: A dress always works, but if you're more of a pants gal, test out a jumpsuit. You still get that one-and-done feel that will turn heads all night long. (Photo via James Devaney/Getty)
H&M Off-the-Shoulder Jumpsuit ($50): A white jumpsuit in winter? Yes, it's actually so stylish.
Adwoa Aboah: A floral knee-length dress works for just about any party, but particularly for NYE with fun accessories like a textured bag and heels. (Photo via David M. Benett/Getty)
Mango Floral Print Dress ($80): The best thing about this floral frock is that you can wear it way past NYE and beyond.
Whitney Port: Get ready to party with this short, hot pink number in a shiny, festive fabric. Colorful heels and a patterned bag finish off the ensemble. (Photo via Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty)
Amanda Uprichard Opal Dress ($194): Throw on this hot pink stunner and you'll make an instant statement when you enter the room.
Kendall Jenner: A fan of the LBD? We're right there with you. For NYE, have a little fun with a unique style featuring feathers. (Photo via Gabe Ginsberg/Getty)
Forest Lily Feather Halter Dress ($175): Give your standard LBD a break in favor of this fun frock.
Tracee Ellis Ross: A brightly hued suit is so impactful and eye-catching to ring in the new year, especially in a beautiful blue shade like Ross is donning here. (Photo via Ryan Miller/Getty)
Zara Basic Blazer ($50) and Trousers ($36): Step out in this luscious suit on NYE, and then pull it out again when you have to go back to work later in the week.
Miranda Kerr: What fabric screams, "'Tis the season" more than velvet? We're loving Kerr's velvet floral shift for a more formal NYE event. (Photo via Donato Sardella/Getty)
Yumi Kim Floral Dress ($248): Wear this blooming dress as is, or add a jacket and tights for a layered (warmer!) look.
