Three! Two! One! Happy new year!
Ok, we’re not quote there yet, but two weeks from now, we will all be celebrating New Year’s Eve—hopefully, in our best sequins and metallics. After all, the unofficial dress code for the night always calls for dazzling and shimmering glamour. It’s the one time a year where you are encouraged to dress like a high-fashion disco ball; the problem is, that approach does not always lend itself to wearing something that is already in your closet.
In need of some new pieces to bid 2025 adieu in? Consider forgoing buying something brand new, and instead, shopping secondhand this holiday season. For one, shopping used or vintage is a less-wasteful approach to buying something you may only wear for one night. And better yet, a quick peruse on secondhand retailers like eBay proves that there are also plenty of fabulous options to uncover.
Whether it is a perfect Altuzarra paillette dress, or a statement Paco Rabanne going-out bag, going the secondhand route is a great option for infusing your existing closet with some pizzazz. Would you not rather ring in the new year with a special, one-of-a-kind find, versus something plastered in sequins that five other party guests may be wearing? 2026 is all about embracing individuality, folks!
