It’s officially the holiday season, which means it’s time we share some of our FAVORITE outfit ideas for office parties, get-togethers with friends and heartwarming family occasions! As the world is still recovering from an era of sweatpants and relaxed at-home style, the key to party-ready pieces this year is flexibility.
We’ve found that the easiest way to navigate this unique moment in fashion is to keep a relaxed element in your ensemble while utilizing texture, accessories and shoes to elevate your look!
Some people love festive textures like velvet, feathers, sequins and sparkle – others love the classic coziness of sweaters and chic winter looks in leather. We’ve incorporated it all for you in five versatile, easy-to-master holiday outfit ideas. Check out our favorites below and let us know which looks YOU love best!

The Holiday Blazer

A velvet, leather or sequin blazer looks great paired with trousers for an upscale office event, or paired with jeans for a festive party! Finish the look with heels or ankle boots.

The Party Blouse

A chic look for a festive party! Wear this piece with trousers or leather pants and heels.

The Slip Dress

Pull a sweater over a slip dress with ankle boots for a picture-perfect dinner party. Keep it cozy with a cardigan and sneakers for an ultra-casual outing with friends. Dress it up with a blazer and heels for a work party!

The Sweater and Leather

We love this look for casual parties with friends and family and nights out. Looks great with ankle boots for wide-leg pants and lug sole boots with legging-style pants! For a more elevated look, wear it with heels!

The Versatile Little Black Dress

The ideal little black dress for this year is a versatile piece you can dress up and down with accessories, outer layers and shoes! We’ve gathered our favorite LBDs in a variety of party-ready textures and styles that you can dress up and down throughout the holiday season.
For an evening event? Pair your dress with heels, a clutch and your favorite sparkling accessories.
For a casual affair? Dress it down with ankle boots or lug sole boots! Top your dress with a blazer, sweater or cool trench coat to give it a modern edge and layer chain necklaces for an on-trend ensemble.
