New Year's Eve: the perfect party

Christmas has been celebrated! I hope everything has been wonderful!

Thus, it is time to think about the next celebration towards a new decade! 2010!!! Ready for it???

Parties have always been one of my favourite pasttimes. Even though I have not been to that many parties anymore, the idea of dressing up, socializing and dancing has always been a true event. It must have something to do with my horoscope...Leo's love to party!!!

I am sure that most of my readers have some wonderful NYE-parties to attend, or spend their time with their loved ones. I am also positive that most of you have already thought up what to wear and what makeup to put on for the celebration. Still, I would like to show you some gorgeous items I found (which is probably too late to buy for New Years Eve, but hey, they make a gorgeous set for the next party)

I love originality...and still feeling confortable. This picture looks like such a cool party outfit: the fedora is a bit masculine, and she teams it up with curly locks, a poofy striped dress, some sexy fishnet tights and some gorgeous boots...It is a cheeky and feminine way of party dressing portrayed by Misty.

So I searched a bit on etsy for some cool fedora's...Glowstoes (what's in a name) has this sophisticated variety with flapper-esque lace.

Or this one has a bright orange and red feather....

And how to stand out in a sea of Little Black Dresses?..simply wear white!

But be careful for those drunk people spilling their drinks on everybody.

Or adorn yourself in a delicate and eyecatching soft aqua colour. This hollystalder dress would look wonderful with a light complexion.

Team up with your aqua eyeshadow and accessorise with this gorgeously matching fascinator:

This is one of my favourites...a vintage flapper dress from the 20s:

And I would probably team up the dress with a hairpiece such as this one from annashoub

Whatever your partyplans and your outfit will be, I hope it will be a wonderful New Year's Eve and a gorgeous new year.

Hats off: my first party since ...1999!

Ok ok, I have been going to a party after 1999, but I liked the title...he he. On the other hand, I haven't been going to a theme party/rave since 1999, which makes the title appropriate again.

BBB's plans:

I convinced my dear boyfriend, or he convinced me, to attend a last party/rave/dancefest before I am really old and expelled from coolness and youth (if glowchaser already considers herself being an 'old cow', what does that make me, a dinosaur???) That means, we are going to Sensation (click): that is a dancefest which you have to/must dress in white, white, white. The theme for this year is Wicked Wonderland, so there is a bit of naughty Alice in Wonderland going on as well. EEEEkkkk.

Ingredients:

We have a theme, we have a dresscode...So I thought to go in complete MAD HATTER style and purchased a white mini hat.



It is so cute....I love it so much...It will make a fab partyhat. I purchased this cutie at mini-top-hat-fascinator on ebay. It arrived in a huge box, so this baby stayed safe during the journey.

Question to readers:

Ha ha, this is only the beginning of the preparation for the party. I need a lot more to look totally OTT...I am planning to buy some extravagant false eyelashes (think the feather-shu uemura variety) and I am thinking about going for a Gothic Lolita look. My questions: what webshops sell the best false eyelashes? and, what makeup-look should I pick?

Sooooo, ADVICE ME for looking my absolute best and completely ridiculously original....
