"As hard as it is to believe, 2025 is just around the corner, so it’s already time to start planning our New Year’s Eve outfits. I love that people go all out for New Year’s—wearing sequins, sparkles, shiny things, and everything in between. However, sometimes it can be hard to decide on an outfit that is festive enough to ring in another year, but also cute and functional.
New Year’s Eve can really vary when it comes to what you’re doing: Some years consist of staying at home and cozying up on the couch with family and a few games or movies, while some are spent out and about for a special date night or event. Wherever you fall on the scale of NYE festivities, there’s no reason not to bring out the glitz and glam.
So no matter what your plans are to ring in 2025, we’ve put together eight mom-friendly NYE looks that include everything from matching lounge sets and slippers to sparkly dresses and heels. Keep scrolling to check out these New Year’s Eve outfits—there’s something for every plan!
