As far as New Year’s Eve is concerned, Style.com has got you covered. See: our step-by-step instructions for glitter eyeliner, radiant skin, and smoky shadow; 12 outfit-making party shoes; and vintage nightlife pics that would make even the NYE-averse want to get up and dance. But if you’re in the market for a beauty move that will last long after the ball drops, we present you with a flashback from Chanel’s underwater-themed Spring ’12 show. Backstage, Sam McKnight slid pearl bobbies into models’ wet strands to complement the larger-than-life coral and clam shells ornamenting the Grand Palais, and getting the look is as easy as picking up this set of River Island spiral pins (below) online. They’re ideal for an easy and chic party ’do. Post-shower, twist damp strands into a low chignon, secure tightly with matte bobby pins, and weave in a few pearls.
