Creating a Look to Impress
It can be hard to pick out stylish holiday apparel in the winter. Trying to stay warm and elegant on chilly nights is no easy task. You have to pick out layers that will keep you warm but not look sloppy or ill-fitting. You need to choose accessories that look cute but won’t clash with your outfit. And the list goes on. It’s no wonder that procrastinating on holiday dressing is so tempting. This guide is to help you pick out outfits for multiple holiday occasions, including both casual and formal outfits. No matter what your plans are this holiday season, there are always options to stay festive and comfortable.
Top Recommendations
Tops often take center stage in an outfit. You can choose to go with a sleek, understated look by choosing neutral colors and simple designs. Or draw attention with eye-catching colors, like green or red, to show your festive mood. When choosing a top, think about the rest of your outfit, particularly your bottoms. You should strategically choose colors to create a complementing look. Whatever style you are going for, you can put together a look that is appropriate for a lot of different holiday occasions.

Wear it with a colorful pair of trousers or skirt for a festive yet work-appropriate look.
Don’t forget about all the fun outdoor activities that accompany the holidays. Finding the right outfit for picking out a tree or walking through the neighborhood looking at the lights on the houses require cute pieces that can be layered if necessary. Especially when caught in some candid family photos, you want to look chic and cozy. This off-the-shoulder long-sleeve top is perfect for walking around.

Opt for a minimalist look when it comes to accessories to keep the focus on your top.
Bottom Recommendations
It’s easy to overlook your bottoms when picking out an outfit. It’s important to have several options on hand in case you decide to go super dressy, casual, or sleek. Picking bottoms that blend well with the rest of your outfit is key to a good combination. Though, if you’re up to a stylish trend, trying out flashy bottoms could work well for you to create a holiday look you love.
Will you need a sleek look this holiday season? Perhaps you’re having dinner at a hip restaurant or off to a party at a friend’s house. Sometimes you need a formal outfit that borders on the casual cool side. This pair of faux leather pants is perfect for elevating your entire look. Though it’s a unique and striking material to use as pants, its neutral dark color allows you to pair it with seasonal colors. You could pair it with a silky jewel-tone blouse or a sweater with holiday colors for a cheery yet glamorous contemporary look.

Picking out what to wear for dressy events is hard if you love to be comfortable and casual most of the time. This pleated pair of pants is super dressy yet comfortable. The pants give the illusion of being a skirt, in part due to its wide leg hem. The pants are a bit of a head-turner, so you can pair them with a simple plain shirt for an outfit that’s still formal. Jewelry always pairs well with this outfit; you could try a long necklace or dangling earrings for a put-together look.
Outerwear Recommendations
When the weather gets cold, you need to find the right layers to make a cute outfit. Picking out jackets, sweaters, and coats isn’t easy. You should take into consideration materials, style, and color to ensure none of your outerwear will clash with the rest of your outfit. It’s helpful to think about the rest of your wardrobe to ensure you pick outerwear that is going to look good when layered with at least a few different outfits. If you have a lot of bright colors, then choosing a neutral coat will work best. If you have mostly neutral-colored clothes, then going with a colorful jacket might be exactly what you need. Also, if you wear tops with patterns a lot of the time, then sticking with a simple design ensures that you’ll be able to wear your jacket with most of your clothes.
Are you excited now that the temperatures have dropped to be outside? Just because the weather is cooler doesn’t mean you won’t be spending a fair amount of time outside. Whether you enjoy being outside in the cold or dislike anything other than July weather, you’ll need proper outerwear.

It’s versatile and attractive, so you can wear out to lunch with friends as you catch up and talk about upcoming plans.
Accessories Recommendations
Accessories can make or break your outfit. The right cold-weather accessories will accentuate your holiday apparel and add to the overall look. Accessories that don’t work with your outfit will look out of place and clunky. Going with the same neutral colors for things like your hat, scarf, and gloves will help you to look put together.

Our Best Tips
Not sure where to get started with your fashion plans? Here are some of our best tips.
Packing for Travel
If you’re doing a lot of traveling in the car or by airplane this holiday season, we recommend packing clothes that don’t wrinkle or crease for easy suitcase-to-party situations. This way, you won’t be scrambling around looking for an iron at the last minute.
Materials Matter
Materials matter, especially in the winter season. Choose materials that will keep you warm, like flannel, sherpa, velvet, leather, or wool.
Treat Yourself
Indulge in your favorite holiday colors. Go for the classic red and green. Alternatively, pick out lovely jewel tones or eye-grabbing metallics.
Be Comfortable
Comfort is key. It’s hard to strike a perfect balance between snug and glamorous, but try to pick pieces that are soft on your skin, layer well, and provide warmth from any cold winds coming your way.
Strategize
Be strategic with your accessories. Choose scarves, gloves, and hats that will keep you warm and won’t clash with your outfit. Neutral colors for these items work great to complement other brighter colors in your outfit.
