The Top 10 Swimsuits to Buy for New Year's on the Beach
There are many ways to ring in the new year, whether you’re at home with family and friends, paying the premiums for a glitzy party in the city or relaxing by the cabin fire after a long day of skiing. But while any plan is sure to be a blast, one of our favorite ways to celebrate the new year is on the beach. Whether you head to Tulum, Trancoso, Miami, or another warm locale, nothing beats dancing in the sand until the sunrise while you get excited for the year ahead.
However, don't get it twisted: just because you’ll be in a swimsuit rather than a party dress doesn’t mean you shouldn’t go all out. But how do you embody that glittering energy when you're not resorting to some maximalist cocktail attire? Think swimsuits that shine. From metallics to lurex to sequins to latex, we’ve picked out the 10 best swimsuits that sparkle for your party under the palms.
Oséree’s lurex swimsuits have attracted an it-girl fanbase including Kourtney Kardashian and Rita Ora for a few seasons now. While in our own lives, we may not necessarily be yacht hopping in the South of France on any given Tuesday (though we sure can dream), New Year's Eve is the perfect excuse to take the plunge and sport one of these sparkly styles.
