Candy Canes. Father Christmas. Classic Carols – it’s that time of the year again! However, between last-minute shopping, decorating the tree, and baking the treats, you may forget what is truly important – you! Gingerbread houses and spiced cider are fabulous, but this festive season, you should prioritize yourself; getting the perfect Christmas outfits is a step towards that!
Loose coat-fitted top combo – Always in Style!
While the classic winter dressing is often limited to bundled-up coats and mufflers, this is the year to switch it up with your clothing. Instead of limiting yourself to the basic trench-pant cordi, go for a trendier look. For example, you try the loose coat-fitted top combo – a style that we are sure you have liked more than a few times on your feeds.
Go for wool-blend tops
Since it’s going to be cold, it’s best to choose wool-blend tops when styling your look. A turtleneck sweater is a winter classic that you cannot absolutely go wrong with. If you want to give your outfit a more premium look, you can get a ribbed, knitted option on your high necks; opt for a color you normally wouldn’t choose. Ribbed styles give your top more structure and emphasize your shape, while a knitted design is simply cozier. Meanwhile, a more unusual color can help you break out of styling yourself in the same boring monotone look.
Explore different top styles
Since coats and jackets are a winter staple, you can try to switch up your top styles instead. Whether you are heading to the Castle Howard Into the Woods Fairytale Show with your family or hitting the Winter Wonderland Skates at Nottingham with friends, a great Christmas outfit can make you feel like a million bucks.
Even if turtlenecks are not your preferred style, there are plenty of options.
For example, you can wear a structured, long sleeve wrap top under your coat to give yourself a little holiday pick-me-up. These styles are amazing as they combine femininity with comfort. If you are feeling bold, you can even opt for a bright, colorful option – vibrant shades like Fuschia or lime can add drama to your Christmas look. These shades are the way to go if you want to liven up your look and add a little fun to the monochrome winter clothing palette.
You Don’t Always Have to Go Bold
However, if you are hesitant about trying such bold colors, there is another way to incorporate Christmas fever into your outfits, and there’s only one word for it – glitter! Add a sparkle to your closet by getting a tinsel-inspired glitter top to go with your outfit. These are the perfect additions even for the most conservative dressers; muted grey/black glitter tops pair fabulously well with classic black coats.
For a little extra pizzazz, you should opt for a long wool skirt instead of a pair of pants (don’t forget the stockings, though!). To finish your look, get a low-heel winter boot that is comfortable to walk in yet glamorous enough to be fashionable. And voila! Your Christmas outfit is complete!
