New Year’s Eve film hits cinemas. What will you be wearing for the last night of the year?

By Andrea Petrou on November 25th, 2011

Christmas parties are an important part of the social calendar but unfortunately they fizzle out as quickly as those champagne bubbles.

However, there’s another huge fashion event that we’re already gearing up for and that’s of course the New Year’s Eve shindig. Whether you’re planning a quiet night in or heading out in search of a kiss at midnight, you’ll need a suitable outfit.

A wardrobe essential, the little black dress, is a great choice as it goes with everything and can be dressed up or down depending on the mood of the party. But if you’re feeling a bit bolder, why not invest in a dazzling dress in on-trend metallics and sequins?

The shops are flowing over with silver, gold and glittering gowns in all shapes and sizes – the ultimate in power-glamour – so why not let the dress do the talking this New Year’s Eve?

Once you’ve got the dress you’ll want to get in the mood for New Year’s Eve too. This week romantic comedy NEW YEAR’S EVE hits cinemas and is a perfect way to get into the New Year’s Eve spirit. The movie, which is a must see for ladies, celebrates love, hope, forgiveness, second chances and fresh starts and is based on a range of in the intertwining stories of couples and singles, told amidst the pulse and promise of New York City on the most dazzling night of the year.

And the best bit about it? It features many of our style and male crushes including: Jessica Biel, Jon Bon Jovi, Abigail Breslin, Chris “Ludacris” Bridges, Robert De Niro, Josh Duhamel, Zac Efron, Hector Elizondo, Katherine Heigl, Ashton Kutcher, Seth Meyers, Lea Michele, Sarah Jessica Parker, Michelle Pfeiffer, Til Schweiger, Ryan Seacrest, Hilary Swank and Sofia Vergara – we know we have quite a few.

Written by the brains behind last year’s hit romantic comedy Valentine’s Day, it is shot entirely on location in and around New York City making it a Christmas must see.

To celebrate the film we want to know what your New Year’s wishes are. Do you want to find love, save money or just simply get in shape? Place your wish here.

And more importantly what are you thinking about wearing to see in the New Year? Will it be that sequined sexy dress or will you be sitting on the sofa in your fluffy slippers and PJs? Tell us by logging onto the official NEW YEAR’S EVE Facebook page.

In the meantime here’s a little trailer of the film to whet your appetite. We’ll see you by the popcorn stand.

NEW YEAR’S EVE is in cinemas Thursday December 8

Style spotlight: Up-and-comer DJ Yasmin

Scottish singer/DJ Yasmin has been flickering on and off my style radar for a while now –  I first read about her in Wonderland a few months ago where the prolific fash-mag gushed about her talents and how she’s destined for big things. Since seeing that piece it seems like the dark-haired beauty has been quietly popping up everywhere, at festivals, parties and events, and I think it’s about time that ShinyStyle shone the spotlight on the DJ’s cool, eclectic dress sense.

Her style is just like her music- fresh, exciting and youthful with more than a nod to 80s and 90s electro. We love how Yasmin crams different influences together for a style that is completely her own, mixing grunge, vintage and modern futuristic styles for the perfect party look. Even if you’re not a DJ club-hopper like Miss Yasmin herself, you can take a leaf from her book and mix your styles together to look like you are.

Yasmin’s tipped to be a big star in the charts, but we have a feeling that it won’t be long before she’s spotted in the front row at Fashion Week, either. Keep an eye out for this girl – I know ShinyStyle will be. Want to know more about her? Check out her site, Yasmin’s World, to check out her remixes, mix-tapes and blog updates (she’s a big fashion lover as well as a hot-shot music gal).

To check out some of Yasmin’s best looks so far, check out the gallery above.
