Are you hosting an NYE party or heading off to one? With the Boxing Day sales kicking off, today is the perfect opportunity to pick up your partywear and save some pennies
If you’re anything like me, you’ve probably left your New Year’s Eve outfit to the last minute. With all the effort and prep that goes into Christmas Day, it’s no surprise to forget about the New Year. If this sounds like you, don’t fret, as the Boxing Day sales are the perfect opportunity to get your hands on pieces at a discounted price.
With major brands such as Nobody’s Child, H&M, Debenhams, and more participating in the sales this year, now is the perfect time to get party prepped.
We’re not saying you have to buy something new for the celebrations; however, if you do want to treat yourself to a new party dress or top, check out our top New Year’s Eve picks from the sales below…
DEBENHAMS
Debenhams has some amazing discounts on right now on a whole range of brands from Warehouse to Oasis and Coast. Our favourite from the sale has to be this deep green sequin mini dress from Warehouse. The dress is better than half price, reduced down from £69 to £30.
Style with gold platform heels and hoop earrings for the ultimate ’70s NYE outfit!
Other pieces we’re loving in the sale include: Warehouse Burnout Jacquard Tie Neck Plunge Maxi Dress (WAS £85, NOW £51) and Coast Party Satin Swing Dress With Sequin Trim (WAS £99, NOW £45).
NOBODY’S CHILD
If you’re ever stuck with outfit ideas, a co-ord is always a great option. A pre-made outfit that you can chuck on and go. And this floral midi skirt and blouse combo from Nobody’s Child is perfect if you’re not a fan of fuss and sequins. Both items have been reduced from £69 each down to £48 each.
And the best part about this set is that because it’s not overly glam, you can rewear it over and over again depending on the occasion. Simply switch out shoes and accessories to style it up or down.
A few extra of our favourites from the Nobody’s Child sale include: Black Longline Waistcoat (WAS £69, NOW £41); Red Velvet Vicky Midi Dress (WAS £120, NOW £42); and Black Embroidered Cord Jacket (WAS £110, NOW £72).
H&M
Sequin trousers, in my opinion, are a party season essential. Style them up with more sequins and platform heels for a showstopping NYE look, or equally dress them down with a cosy knit and fluffy slippers for the perfect stay-at-home New Year’s outfit.
We love these silver sequin trousers from H&M, reduced from £34.99 to £27.99 in its Christmas sale.
Other standouts from the sale that would make great NYE party pieces include: Sequined A-Line Mini Dress ( WAS £37.99, NOW £30 ); Bow Detail Satin Blazer ( WAS £42.99, NOW £23 ); Glittery Shirt ( WAS £19.99, NOW £12 ); Rhinestone-Embellished Heeled Boots ( WAS £109.99, NOW £55 ); and Mesh Mary Jane Ballet Pumps ( WAS £37.99, NOW £28 ).
MONSOON
Monsoon has an amazing partywear selection this year, and today is the day to take advantage of the sales and pick something up, either for the New Year or for next year.
This Kate Middleton-inspired velvet midi dress is one of our favourites. Made from a luxe navy velvet fabric featuring bow details on the sleeves, this dress is completely glam and sophisticated. The silhouette is reminiscent of the Vampire’s Wife (no longer in business, but one of Kate’s favourites) at a fraction of the price. With 50% off, you won’t want to miss getting your hands on this dress.
A few more of our favourites include: Riley Ruffle Midi Skirt ( WAS £110, NOW £55 ); Moira Embroidered Bow Dress ( WAS £125, NOW £62.50 ); Greta Feather Sleeve Blouse ( WAS £75, NOW £37.50 ); and Pia Pearl Cardigan ( WAS £69, NOW £48.30 ).
DAMSON MADDER
One of my favourite brands of 2024, Damson Madder, has launched its Christmas sale featuring some of its most popular pieces at huge discounts. The Bel Tuck Pin Shirt, reduced from £65 to £32.50, is ideal if you’re hosting or heading to a more low-key New Year’s Eve celebration.
The sheer black shirt features an on-trend corsage collar that can be removed depending on the vibe you’re going for. This versatile piece can be toned down with some horseshoe jeans and boots or dressed up with sequin trousers and heels.
Other pieces we’re also loving include: Lauren Mini Dress ( WAS £95, NOW £47.50 ); Penelope Mini Dress ( WAS £85, NOW £59.50 ); and 90s Frill Shoulder Bag ( WAS £50, NOW £35 ).
