I’m covering all of my favorite ways to do holiday style this year. Scroll below to shop all the best pieces to make you the most stylish at any holiday function this season!
1. velvet everything
The totally obvious choice for any holiday gathering, but hey there’s nothing wrong with that! Try choosing a fresher silhouette (like a wide leg pant) or an interesting color (like that light burgundy below) and you won’t feel just like everyone else sporting velvet.
2. box clutches
They just look so fancy! Their hard structure feels expensive and really makes a statement.
3. pleated midi skirt
Something about a pleated midi skirt just screams classiness but without looking too old/traditional. Definitely pair this with heels if you’re going to a party to create more height and sex it up a bit since the skirt hits long. I love front-tucking a chunkier sweater into these, but they also look great with a blouse fully tucked.
4. tulle
It’s not a proper party without some tulle! Classic party skirt, everyone will compliment it guaranteed. Pair with simple everything else to balance all the texture.
6. plaid mini skirt
The cutest option for a holiday function, the plaid mini skirt has that girl-next-door factor that never fails. Pair it with a tucked turtleneck sweater, tights, and booties and you will look adorable as ever!
7. jazzy shoes
There are so many fun options for shoes this time of year – you can’t go wrong with any of them! It’s always fun to have a more simple outfit but jazz it up with the accessories.
8. fun tights
Whether you’re trying to save a buck and re-wear a dress you already have or if you just like to keep it simple and dress your ensemble up with unique accessories, a fun pair of tights is a great option. My favorites are the ones with the stars below – so fun!
9. statement earrings
Add glam to ANY look with a pair of earrings that make a statement! This is the cheapest way to wear an entire outfit you already own but still add a dash of fresh glam.
