I always feel a little blue right after Christmas, packing away the decorations until next December and marveling at how quickly the season passed by. But then I remember: New Year’s Eve! And all the sparkle, glitz, fun and decadence that awaits on this one last chance of the year to party! I’ll never forget my favorite NYE… Adam and I had gotten engaged just a few days before and taken off on a whirlwind trip to London. We rang in the new year with plenty of champagne and a breathtaking view of fireworks over the Thames. Just because we’re home for the holidays this year doesn’t mean our night should be any less magical, and I teamed up with kate spade new york to create a glitzy soirée brimming with steal-worthy inspiration. Click through for all the details shot by Buff Strickland, and be sure to pop on over and check out the rest of our Style in Spades celebration series if you haven’t already. Cheers to a brand new year… hope it’s the best yet!


















Lovely lovely party ideas!!!! My family and I will be celebrating New Years Eve on a beach trip and this gives me the idea to make the 2013 numbers and take pictures on the beach! Love it! My nieces will have a blast doing a fun crafty project on our trip! Thank you my dear! XOXO
Oh my gosh, that will be SO darling Desiree! Please send us pics – I’d love to see what you do. And New Years Eve on the beach sounds heavenly. Hope you have a wonderful trip! xo
Beautiful, beautiful styling. I always love your features like this! Hope you have a wonderful remainder of your holiday.
Cheers, Elizabeth of The Corner Apartment
Thank you Elizabeth, so sweet! Thrilled that you are enjoying the features! xo
Camille, this party may be my favorite ever! You brought together SO many of my favorite things effortlessly–from sparkly shoes to coral peonies to my dream china pattern (Kate Spade Larabee Road), and it looks so beautiful and fun!
Isn’t the Larabee Road stunning? The perfect blend of elegance and playfulness. So glad that you loved this party! xx
Very beautiful! I may have missed it, but I’d love to know where the outfits came from! I’m coming up short on the NYE attire!
Thanks Amberly! Lots of the outfits and accessories came from kate spade new york – they are brimming with sparkly, fun pieces that would be perfect for NYE! http://www.katespade.com/designer-clothing/clothing,default,sc.html
Thank goodness for New Years Eve ~ b/c I too get the “after Christmas blues”
Love te necklace! Where is it from?
I LOVE your wine stoppers! So posh =)
Aren’t they gorgeous? We included the link where they can be purchased on the slide… adds such a festive touch to any liquor bottle!
Gorgeous as always! Love the rock candy stirs. So fun! The white russian shots look so yummy!
Hi! Realized I wasn’t specific earlier! I was wondering where the necklace is from in the picture with the black dress and kate spade bangles. I love it!!! All is gorgeous.
Not sure… I’ll let Jenn answer that one for us since she’s modeling in that photo!
Hi, Marcela! Those necklaces are actually from Francesca’s in Austin. All of the other jewelry featured is from kate spade new york. Sometimes I like to mix in a a few trendy pieces of costume jewelry with my nicer investment pieces… don’t tell!
Nice. Where’s the skirt/top from?
So fun! Just pinned to my party board. Happy New Year!!!
Love your version of the twister game…how festive & fun!

Love. Is there a note about where the champagne bucket is from? (Fingers crossed that it’s not 2 years old and impossible to find)
The smaller kate spade “two of a kind” ice bucket will be in stores February. The larger champagne bucket is my own, from Z Gallerie. Thanks Sarah! xo
