From short skirts to sequins, here are her top tips - and the biggest 'turn off' items.

Alarna (pictured) said that wrap dresses or A-line skirts are always a good idea because they are 'universally flattering shapes for women'
FOR WOMEN - THE DOS
WRAP DRESSES AND A-LINE SKIRTS
When it comes to a successful New Year's Eve outfit for a woman, Alarna said the key things to think about are comfort and confidence.
'Wear something you feel fantastic in,' she told Daily Mail Australia.
'A New Year should be welcomed with something exciting and done wearing clothes you feel fabulous and comfortable in.'
This might be a much-loved wrap dress or a new A-line skirt - both of which are items that are 'universally flattering shapes for women'.
'Wear these high on your waist,' Alarna added - because this is where they will look their best.
COMFORTABLE HEELS OR BOOTS
The stylist and Sydney-based personal shopper also said that comfortable stack heels or boots are your best bet to be having a good time when the clock strikes 12.
'My mantra is: If you can't boogie in it, don't wear it,' she said.

SEQUINS
A good alternative to simple wrap dresses and A-line skirts, Alarna explained you can't go wrong with sequins on December 31.
'Every year, New Year's Eve dressing trends tend to stay the same,' she said.
'It's all about sequins, sparkles and "going out" dresses. In colder countries, this might mean thick tights with sequin skirts and leather jackets.
'While here in Australia, it's all about linen double-breasted blazers, camisoles and matching shorts.'
POWER DRESSING
Alarna also said she loves the idea of 'power dressing for a New Year'.
'I think we should be ditching the trends and putting something on that we feel powerful in.'
While Alarna (pictured) said for the most part, you should wear something you feel comfortable and confident in, she also said that NYE is a good time to 'challenge yourself to wear something you usually wouldn't
BIG PRINTS OR BOLD LIPS
While Alarna said for the most part, you should wear something you feel comfortable and confident in, she also said that NYE is a good time to 'challenge yourself to wear something you usually wouldn't.
'Whether this is a big print, some sparkles, a bold lip or statement earrings, New Year's Eve is a great opportunity to go slightly outside your sartorial comfort zone in order to get noticed.'
The stylist said a bold red lip or some oversized earrings might cause an old friend to look at you in a slightly different way - and could even lead to romance.
She did add, however, that you should think about whatever activity you might be doing in your garments.
'Mini skirts are fun until you find out that you're partying on a balcony and everyone downstairs is seeing more than they need to!'.

FOR WOMEN - THE DON'TS
SKY HIGH HEELS
They might be seen as the ultimate leg lengthener - but sky high heels are not the right choice for New Year's Eve.
'Everyone is over the super tall stilettos and platforms,' Alarna explained.
'You're far better off wearing a comfortable heel, kitten shoe or boot.'
FLASH TOO MUCH FLESH
'Don't show off all your assets at once,' Alarna said.
'Instead, pick a body part that you love and focus on showing that off.'
This, she explained, will help to create an outfit that's 'elegant and sexy' - and ideal for scoring a date on New Year's Eve.

RELY ON NIPPLE TAPE
In a similar vein to flashing too much flesh, Alarna said you should never rely on nipple tape or fabric glue for a new dress, as this might end in tears.
'Get fitted for the right bra for your dress. If you're going backless, you can buy backless bras, or get your hands on silicone nipple covers.
'These are washable and have a better hold on sweat.'
Alarna (pictured) also shared the major dos and don'ts for men and their wardrobes on New Year's Eve
FOR MEN - THE DOS
PICK A DARK COLOUR
Dark colours are a great idea for men because Alarna said they will help to 'eliminate stains from spilt drinks'.
'If you're in a cold climate, a cotton button up and a knit with a wool blazer or overcoat is a classic option and can be worn with jeans and chinos,' she said.
'In summer, a cotton or linen button-up shirt with shorts or chinos will be practical and stylish.'
PRINTED SHIRTS OR FABRIC WOVEN BELTS
In a hot climate, Alarna said it can be good to add a fun and summery twist.
'Opt for a printed shirt or fabric woven belt for a fun twist, and if you're wearing shorts, don't forget to wear low cut or no-show socks,' she said.
'A pocket square will also lift your outfit and make it feel special.'
FOR MEN - THE DON'TS
WEAR A TIE
Unless you're heading to a formal event, Alarna said you should never wear a tie.
'Also avoid headwear unless you're outside,' Alarna said.
ALL WHITE
The stylist said you should avoid all white as it's a 'magnet for stains and can look too put together'.
'You should also avoid wearing something that will watermark if it gets wet, like suede or silk.'

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
