Well, another year is upon us...time to cast off the doldrums, kick up the heels, step lively, and ring in 2008 with style and enthusiasm!
Of course, New Year's Eve is the perfect occasion to dress up, turn heads, and party hearty into the wee hours of dawn. Some, will be spiffing it up with beautiful outfits, like those expertly crafted by Lola Faturoti (pictured above)
But there are many other options to choose from...
How about design whiz Max Azria's courtly, poor little rich-girl look?
It's sure to be a stand out when the ball drops at midnight. (pictured left)
The stunning, knock-out outfit by Aurelio Castarella is sure to land the fashion savvy woman in a celebrated spot in the limelight at the stroke of twelve, too. (pictured below)
And what looks good on such an elegant arm? Why a handsome young man in a designer tuxedo, of course! Go traditional fellas, or add an eye-catching vest and matching bow tie to add some pizazz to the ensemble!
But, where to go?
On short notice...try the Abbey.
West Hollywood's trendy watering hole does not have a cover and will be one of the chicest parties to be noticed at tonight.
If you have a few bucks to splurge for a live performance - featuring the entertaining "Spazmatics" & "Mouth to Mouth", for instance - try the Dollhouse New Year's Eve celebration at 1718 N. Vine Street (Hollywood) $80
Then, saunter over to the official "After party" at Tokio's hot Ultra, a hop-and-a-skip away.
(1640 N. Cahuenga Boulevard, Hollywood)
And, Happy New Year!
