A Fashion Guide to Winter Holidays

While you will be spending a lot of time at parties and in your favorite sweats, it’s important to keep a few sweaters in your winter closet’s arsenal. A cute, cozy sweater can make you look cute and sweet, all while keeping you toasty. What’s great about many of them is that you can easily dress them up or down. Pair them with black jeans and black block heeled booties and some dangling earrings if you’re feeling dressy. This outfit idea is best for those Christmas parties where the line between dressy and casual is super thin. Or throw this sweater on with leggings and over-the-knee boots while you’re running around town doing your shopping for all of your favorite people.

Trendy boutique clothing includes some of the cutest cardigans you’ve ever laid your eyes on. Affordable boutiques are always stocked with these staples, which means your closet should be too. Instead of worrying about what to wear to a Christmas party, get yourself a cardigan and live your holiday season more stress-free. These, like regular pullover sweaters, can be worn dressed up or down. Pair them with cute booties, heeled or flat, plus solid-colored leggings and a tank. Cardigans come in a wide variety of colors, so don’t be afraid to grab some in a few different shades, including red and green.

The temps have dropped, but there are tons of winter and seasonally appropriate dresses. Trendy boutique clothing, like a velvet crushed long sleeve dress or the traditional sweater dress, is the perfect winter party attire. These are great for your friends’ holiday parties or your family’s formal Christmas dinner. Those in a rich chocolate or ivory are universal colors that look great on everyone. The material and long sleeves mean you won’t get cold, but even short-sleeved dresses can be appropriate with the right cardigan or jacket. Pair them with heels to complete the look. If you’re really worried about getting cold, you can wear stockings even with open-toed shoes.

Almost as essential as the strappy heel, ankle boots are a must-have for every season, but especially in fall and winter. They look great with skinnies, leggings, and dresses. They effortlessly dress up any outfit without making you look like you’re trying too hard. Grab them in black, tan, and even navy to complete your closet. Besides, with all that holiday shopping, you deserve to get a little something for yourself.

Even though it’s cooler out, wearing bralettes is a year-round thing. Because a lot of trendy boutique clothing, like sweaters, can be sheer or knitted, having a cute bralette to wear underneath is essential. While this might not be the first item you’re considering when deciding what to wear to a Christmas party, the right undergarments are essential. You’ll feel much more confident, happy, and secure if you’re wearing an undergarment that makes you feel covered and appropriate. Additionally, some sweaters have cute cutout backs that can make you feel beautiful, and a bralette can help you cover up some skin.

A moto jacket falls under the “must-have” category. Whether you’re dressing for a Christmas party or just a simple holiday gathering with friends, they can give your otherwise plain outfit that oomph it needs. Thanks to the thick material, these can easily keep you warm, even during those cold nights. Moto jackets perfectly walk that line of being trendy and cool as well as being functional.
