Ditch the Dress This New Year's Eve: 20 Pairs of Festive Party Pants to Buy Now

By Liz Doupnik, StyleCaster

Okay guys, we've made it through the holiday season with only New Year's Eve to go. While we're pumped to ring in 2013 in style, there's one snag: We've totally exhausted every dress that's in our closets and don't really to buy another one. So, with the last big soiree around the corner, we're looking for smart, stylish alternatives … Enter the supremely chic party pant.
Festive trousers won't only provide some extra warmth (shivering is never chic!), they can easily offset a basic top (we love the idea of a plain T-shirt) to create a stress-free, effortlessly stylish party look.
From beaded, metallic, patterned, leather, sequin and brocade, we've highlighted 20 awesome options for you to check out-just in time for 2013!
