Are you getting ready to welcome a new year? Here are Brahmin's top tips on what to wear on New Year's Eve, including everything from handbags to accessories.

Your Guide to New Year’s Eve Accessories

You’ll want to celebrate January 1 in a New Year’s Eve outfit that rings in good cheer. The accessories you choose will make your look truly shine. Here are Brahmin’s top tips on the perfect ones to help you ring in a bright and bold New Year:

No matter how you celebrate, a stylish bag should be an essential component of your New Year’s Eve outfit. We’re all for counting down to a new year with a new handbag from one of our holiday collections!



What to Wear to a Friend’s NYE Party

It’s so much fun to spend the New Year at your best pal’s place, and so thoughtful to bring a bubbly bottle of Prosecco and dark chocolate to the festivities. Your New Year’s Eve looks can range from casual in boot-cut jeans and a boxy blazer to something more elegant, like an off-the-shoulder knit maxi dress, and our oversized tote will work with both. Roomy enough to carry all your NYE goodies, try one from our signature Melbourne collections.

What to Wear to New Year’s Eve Dinner 

One of the nicest ways to ring in the New Year is with an elegant dinner out. This perfect opportunity to get dressed up in your favorite LBD or a sharp-looking pantsuit needs to be paired with one of your favorite evening handbags. A small but mighty satchel handbag complements either look, offering a spacious interior and multiple compartments for your last-day-of-the-year essentials. Try a stylish shoulder bag in a bright, bold hue. Or you could opt for a sleek leather zip-around clutch or wristlet that offers a minimal footprint with maximum impact. 

What to Wear to an NYE Special Event

You’re one who likes going all out for New Year’s. There will be party horns and noisemakers, and yes, an evening filled with dancing. Complement your cocktail attire, from a strapless long-line dress to a fitted pair of trousers and a shimmery top, with the ultimate New Year’s Eve purse: the crossbody bag. You’ll be hands-free to enjoy the midnight toast with all the other gatherers. Consider a mini-crossbody purse, which will allow you to easily sway to the evening’s beats.

Colorful Leather Handbag

Getting gussied up in an all-white ensemble? Those winter whites would look amazing with a bold pop of color. Keep the ensemble festive with bags in holiday-friendly hues. Or slip a pastel print bag over your shoulder as an ode to upcoming spring tones.

What To Keep In Your Purse On New Year's Eve 

There are a few things you should have in your bag on New Year’s Eve to help the night go without a hitch:  

  • Lipstick for easy gloss-ups 
  • Portable phone charger so you won’t miss one message at midnight 
  • Mints for fresh breath (just in case you give a New Year’s kiss!) 

Your New Year’s Eve outfit will stun from head to toe with Brahmin’s extensive collection of purses and accessories. Start the New Year off right with our fashionable and functional handbags that you’ll cherish all year long.
