I still have a ton of holiday parties (including New Year's Eve) to hit this season and I'm already running out of dresses. But that doesn't mean I don't plan on keeping my look stylish. In fact, to save myself a few bucks, I'm making use of some of my favorite jeans. Who says you can't wear denim to a party?

Once upon a time I used to live in my jeans. That is, until I picked up the silly idea that jeans weren't dressy enough for cocktail hour, parties, or any other event that isn't super casual. But believe it or not, that's actually the furthest thing from the truth. A good pair of jeans dressed up can work for any occasion–even that fancy New Year's Eve party you're planning to go to. It's all about being creative. Here are six ways to fancy up any pair of jeans–all inspired by celebs!

Try a strong shouldered jacket
If there’s one chica that knows how to spice up her denims, it’s Zoe Saldana. A feminine strong-shouldered blazer paired with pointy pumps makes even boyfriend jeans look fancy.
Wear statement heels
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, shoes can make an outfit. Look for a statement pair (like the spiked up peep-toe booties Jennifer Lopez is wearing here) for instant edge.
Add a statement jacket
A statement jacket worn with dark skinny jeans can make all the difference. You can even wear a plain white blouse underneath. Jessica Alba uses this trick every time!
Rock a peplum top
A pretty peplum top can easily dress up any pair of skinny jeans. I’d also accessorize it with some statement jewelry and sexy pumps, like Julissa Bermudez did.
Wear a dressy top
When it comes to holiday parties you can never go wrong with a metallic blouse and black jeans. Check out how glamorous Eva Longoria looks. It can’t get any easier (or festive) than that!
Consider glazed jeans
A pair of glazed jeans looks great with anything. I love the way Camila Alves wore hers with a red frilly top. So cute!
