Ready to enter 2015 with a bang? Even if you don’t have a show-stopping outfit, you can still shine when you add the right accessories. The best part? It won’t cost you much to look fabulous. Here are the greatest accessories you can find for under $25 dollars, so you can start the new year with some cash left in your pocket—or perhaps your fabulous NYE clutch—on January 1.
Headbands
Pretty Metal Leaf Headband, Bebe, $24 Bring out your inner goddess!
Braid Beaded Headband, Forever 21, $4.90
The beaded detail keeps this headband simple—without forgoing that shine!
Metallic Hair Bandeau, Topshop, $18 If you’re going for a voluminous hairdo this year, this headband will keep your locks under control. Not to mention, it’s an extra layer of protection against cold winter weather.
Other Hair Accessories
Beaded Hair Elastic, Forever 21, $1.80
A fun hair tie elevates a ponytail from a casual to party-ready.
Mini Flower Faux Pearl Hair Slides, ASOS, $11.37
Didn’t bother doing your hair? Slip in a few fun barrettes and you’re good to go!
Machara Barrette and Bobby Set, Anthropologie, $24
These are both sophisticated and festive—a combination that can be hard to come by. Consider adding them to any hair style you rock for NYE.
‘Poppy’ Hair Pin, Nordstrom, $25
Buns are super convenient, but they can feel a bit drab. This beautiful detail can take your knot to the next level.
Bags/Clutches
Metalic Gold-Tipped Wrist Wallet, Charlotte Russe, $11.99 This shimmery clutch is the perfect compliment to other gold accessories. We love the hint of warm blush coloring. Slip this around your wrist so you don’t have to worry about losing it!
Chain Metal Clutch Handbag, Target, $24.99
This purse is super convenient because it can be used as a clutch or as a cross-body bag. The transformation is as easy as taking the chain out of the bag.
Sequin Abstract Print Clutch, Forever 21, $22.90
This artsy envelope clutch does shine in a whole new way! Most NYE accessories are made in a small range of colors, but this one will pop next to the sea of monochromatic gold and silver bags. There’s no way around it—this clutch is pure fun.
Earrings
Purple Medium Stud Earrings, Betsey Johnson, $25
Designer earrings at a reasonable price? Yes, please. We love the deep purple color!
Rhinestone Bow Stud Earrings, Charlotte Russe, $6 Bows have been everywhere this year—wear them in a new way for the new year!
Window Filigree Drop Earrings, A’gaci, $3.90
The intricate design is the perfect compliment for hair left down or pulled back. They’ll be noticeable but never overbearing.
Rings
Oversize Statement Ring, Nordstrom, $10
This warm topaz-like color adds a pretty pop to any outfit.
Rhinestone Row Ring Pack, Topshop, $18
Change it up for the new year, and ditch classic ring shapes for sharp corners.
Roman Around Ring, ModCloth, $9.99 What could be more appropriate for NYE? Not to mention, it’s adorable.
Alchemist Midi Ring Set, Urban Outfitters, $20
Not into statement rings, but still want to make a statement? Consider rocking multiple smaller rings. It’s a simple way to add a little oomph.
Hinged Faux Gem Knuckle Ring, Forever 21, $5.90
It’s New Year’s Eve—why not go all out? Even though this ring is large, its flat design means it won’t get in your way.
Bracelets
Metal Watch + Seadbead Stackable Arm Candy, A’gaci, $24.50
Don’t miss the midnight countdown! The beaded additions make this watch feel like a bracelet as much as a timepiece.
Two Tone Cuff Bracelet, Topshop, $25 Who says you can’t wear gold and silver simultaneously? The inclusion of both colors makes this much more interesting than it would be if it were only one color.
Arm Cuff Set, Forever 21, $5.90
If you’re already rocking rings, a bracelet may feel like overkill. In that case, add something further up your arm. It’s a creative way to fit in that extra accessory!
Glitter Accented Irregular Hinge Cuff, A’gaci, $9.50
The asymmetry makes this cuff interesting, while the glitter makes it perfect NYE.
Necklaces
You Make a Good Point Necklace, ModCloth, $14.99
We like the way the geometric cut gives this necklace a unique shape. Its length also makes it the perfect addition to a top or dress with either a high or low neckline.
Metal Plate Chain Fringe Chain Necklace, A’gaci, $13.90
Rocking a simple little black dress? A long, full-bodied necklace like this one can transform a simple look into one that’s totally ready for a night out.
Garden Route Tie Necklace, PacSun, $12.47 This subtlety of this three-dimensional necklace creates white space that is as interesting as the metal itself. Consider adding this to a colorful top to make it really pop!
Whatever you’re doing this New Years Eve, throw on some of these accessories, and you’re guaranteed to be the life of the party.
