The Holiday Cookies and Wine Date

Picture this: Cookies are in the oven, it’s cold outside and you have a full evening ahead of cozy-lounging on the couch watching Netflix’s best holiday movies! Keep it casual-cool with a long-sleeve polo and a chunky sweater or cardigan. Looks great with jeans or casual pants and sneakers!

Holiday Photos and Dinner

A patterned or corduroy chore jacket in festive colors is perfect for holiday photos in front of the tree, or holiday get-togethers with family and friends!

The Semi-Casual Celebration

A suede or leather statement jacket paired with oxford or chelsea boots is a great way to elevate a mock-neck sweater and jeans. This look is great for celebrations at restaurants and bars, or for semi-casual work parties!
The 2021 take? Try your statement jacket in the trending color Mallard Blue!
We LOVE this color – It’s foolproof. You can pair it back to browns, blacks AND neutrals, while also looking great on any skin tone.

The Upscale Holiday Party

Some sharpness is in order! We love the look of a festive velvet, corduroy or pattern blazer, paired with a mock-neck shirt, trousers/chinos and boots or loafers. This look is great for an upscale office party or special event.
