NYE calls for festivity, for sure. But, this year, we're challenging ourselves to think beyond the red-lip-smoky-eye combo we've been known to sport for the big ball drop. On the agenda this year? Fresh, bright, bold looks that will — hopefully — turn us into the girl at the party that everyone wants to be. How's that for a resolution, y'all?

If you're looking to join us on our quest to bring our party looks into totally new territory, click through for the step-by-step on four hair and makeup pairings that are anything but expected. Best part? These high-impact looks are actually totally achievable, even for beauty novices. Trust, you'll love them.

Now, all we need is the perfect outfit to pair with our radder-than-ever beauty game — any suggestions, girls?
