The £12 Accessory That Will Make Any Outfit a New Year's Eve Outfit

If you haven't thought about your New Year's Eve outfit until this morning (we're with you), then we recommend taking note of Alexa Chung's recent party move. Alexa has long been a fan of a pretty hair slide, and this month she showed that they are the easiest way to transform any outfit into a party outfit. At a fashion dinner, she wore her hair in a centre parting with two embellished, twinkly barrettes, one on each side. But they don't just look amazing with a party dress, as Alexa also Instagrammed a picture of her wearing her rose-tinted slides with a chunky green roll neck. These make the perfect accessory to make you feel a little more glam at your local pub this evening. Keep scrolling to see how Alexa Chung has been wearing her party hair clips.
