Almost everyone wants to ring in the New Year with a little do. And what’s the fun of it without much ado? So, while midnight is still distant, let’s run a quick check on what we need to do for a fun party.

Keep it colourful : More often than not, everyone wants a break from the routine on the first day of the year. No one likes the idea of a heap of dishes waiting to be done, so go disposable and opt for colourful pint glasses, shot tubes, shooters and even Martini glasses. While at it, look for a dip platter and dinner plates that are unbreakable. Want to look fantastically upbeat with the décor? Then go for the glow glasses.

Dress right : House parties are the coolest because one need not worry much the dress code. Just be dressed for the occasion. Keep it fun, keep it whacky. Get the Afro wigs; they may not be new but they are still going strong on the trendsetting charts. The coloured Afros are the most popular, but plain ones also add to a new look.

Hair bands : You can be Minnie Mouse, Rudolph, an angel or a stylish devil. LED-lit hair bands are the easiest party gear to grab to make a style statement. The battery-operated LED light glows and makes a pretty picture in the dark. With the boomerang app you sure can earn a few hundred likes with these. Bunny ears are also never out of fashion to look silly and fun.

Glow jewellery: Want to look like a glow worm? Forget make-up and make-up glitter. Instead, opt for glow jewellery like ear rings, rings and necklaces. You are sure to make heads turn with them.

LED frames: Wear the hearts that glow or frames that have LED straws through the frame. The streaming light makes a party fashion statement without disturbing the view. Some frames also come with faces of cartoon characters, but they are probably best suited for a Halloween party.

LED straws : Keep them scattered around the place of party. The coloured sticks will glow and add decent light around the area without having to think of altering the lights around the house. When the night is meant to be danced away, no one wants to be under bright lights.

Whistle it in: Finally when the clock strikes 12, no one complains of the noise. So go ahead, keep the horns and whistles ready and ring in 2017 with a bang.
