Hands down, one of the easiest ways to elevate any holiday look is with a statement necklace. Your New Year's Eve party outfit is no exception. If there is one accessory you should reach for this season, this would be the one. Basically, the beauty of a great necklace is that it can take even the simplest of black dresses to the next level, which is a godsend for those short on time to find a look and to those that really just love an easy dressing tip. With so many styles available at a variety of price points you are guaranteed to find one that works perfectly with your outfit and your budget.
Interested in what It girls will be wearing this year? Our guess is a layered coin or medallion necklace or two or three—The look is effortless and goes great with a plunging or open neckline. Bonus points if you have something personalized. If your approach to style is more on the classic side, try a pearl or solo tassel option. For the all-out party girl, we recommend exploring some sort of crystal-encrusted piece. You could go with either a standout crystal fringe design or go more '90s-inspired with a sparkly crystal choker.
