4. Glam That Glows
For New Year’s Eve, your hair and makeup should be as unforgettable as the countdown. Think glowing skin, a bold red or berry lip, and smoky eyes with a hint of shimmer. For hair, sleek buns, soft waves, or even a daring wet-look style will have you serving celebrity vibes all night long.
5. Don’t Forget the Trends
This season, it’s all about metallics, velvet, and bold jewel tones like emerald, sapphire, and ruby. If you want to step outside the box, a power suit with a corset or embellished blazer will have you shutting it DOWN on the red carpet.

The Essential Black-Tie Guide with the help of Well-Groomed Man
As we approach the holiday season, it's time to elevate your look for New Year’s Eve. Black tie is your key to sophistication—and it has nothing to do with an actual necktie! Here’s how to master the art of formalwear:
The Essentials
Tuxedo Must-Haves: Black tie revolves around tuxedos and black bow ties. A single-breasted or double-breasted jacket is the foundation of a classic black-tie look.
The Lapel Lowdown: Choose from peak, shawl, or notch lapels. Peak lapels are bold and classic, shawl lapels exude elegance, and notch lapels are versatile and modern.
Fabric Play: Velvet, brocade, or jacquard fabrics add texture and luxury. A black tuxedo is timeless, but a colored or velvet jacket can create a standout moment.
Fit Is Everything
A poorly fitting tuxedo can ruin even the best look. Here’s what to check:
Jacket Fit: The shoulders should lay flat, and the jacket should button comfortably without pulling. The sleeves should end just above your wrist bone to show a sliver of shirt cuff.
Trouser Length: Pants should have a slight break at the shoe. Avoid baggy or overly- tight fits to keep the silhouette sharp.
Tailoring Is Key: Even off-the-rack tuxedos can look custom with a good tailor, for the best look go completely custom.
Finishing Touches
Shirt Selection: Opt for a crisp white dress shirt, preferably with a wingtip or spread collar. Pleated fronts add a formal touch, while a simple plain-front shirt is modern and sleek.
Bow Tie Basics: A black bow tie is essential, but don’t hesitate to choose a velvet bow tie for a bit of flair.
Cummerbund or Waistcoat: Both are great options to complete the black-tie look.
Details That Set You Apart
Lapel Pin: A subtle yet striking detail, a lapel pin—such as a sleek metallic design or floral embellishment—adds personality to your outfit.
Pocket Square: A white silk pocket square is classic, but a patterned or colored one can add a modern touch.
Shoes: Patent leather oxfords are a traditional choice, but velvet loafers or polished monk straps can add a unique edge. Make sure they’re well-shined and spotless.
Jewelry: Cufflinks and studs should be understated but elegant. Stick with metals that match the rest of your accessories.
Make the Red Carpet Yours
With your look perfected, all that’s left is to own the moment. Remember, Rock the Clock is your stage, and with the KSLA Red Carpet Party hosted by Tina B and content galore hitting every social media platform, the world will be watching.
Whether you follow Stephen’s bold advice Pink Lucy’s chic guidance, or Well-Groomed Man’s polished pointers, the goal is to walk in with confidence and leave a lasting impression.
