My wardrobe has become very limited as of late. This is partly because not much fits me right now and partly because all I want to be is comfortable. Really leaning into “soft clothes” you know? Maybe it was escapism, but I got ahead of the game this year and put together three Christmas outfit ideas! The first one is probably the most “me” but I love them all for different reasons.
3 Christmas Outfit Ideas for 2023
White Bag // Tartan Bow // Mary Jane Flats // Red Sweater // Straight Jeans // Gold Hoops
I love any excuse to pull out my tartan and pops of red, and obviously they’re the perfect additions to Christmas outfit ideas! Bows have practically become my calling card – this one is such an easy way to nod to the holidays without spending too much. This red sweater is both chic and comfortable, which is always a win when you’re faced with a long day and lots of food. The same goes for the patent Mary Jane flats! Neely & Chloe’s Mini Lady Bag is one of my favorite handbags because it’s absolutely classic and surprisingly roomy. Gold hoops add a little extra something while allowing the elements to shine. Finally, the jeans make the whole look feel a little more casual.
Black Dress // Silver Bag // Rhinestone Headband // Ballet Flats
Going all out during the holidays can be so fun, but at this point in my pregnancy, I’d be happy wearing nothing but the cutest Christmas pajamas for the foreseeable future. This dress (currently 30% off with EVERYTHING30) is a close second though!! The Ellie is AMAZING because of the flexible sizing – I’m confident that even with my bump, I’d be able to wear my usual size. Of course I love the bow straps on this one, and the textured jacquard fabric does a great job at elevating the silhouette. I waited for J.Crew to bring back the Edie Bag for a long time and it remains pure perfection. The metallic leather is an unexpected twist! It complements the rhinestone headband perfectly. I can’t round up Christmas outfit ideas without including my trusty ballet flats. The red is *chef’s kiss* holidays!
Skinny Jeans // Plaid Headband // Pearl Studs // Navy Bag // Bow Back Sweater // Knee-High Boots
I didn’t mean to include a bow on every collage, but you like what you like, right?! I know not everyone likes leaning into a theme, so I kept this last option neutral on purpose. Just cute stuff, starting with this bow back sweater (that also comes in a stunning crimson)! I love how the bow is a satin material, plus it’s removable. It’s like getting two for one! These heeled boots are the best excuse to get back into your skinny jeans, ha! I already have this bag in green (it’s one of my all-time favorites!) but I’d honestly make room to buy it in every color. It brings out the navy in the headband perfectly! These studs are super similar to my everyday pair and go with literally everything.
The first option is my favorite!! I love the tartan bow, perfect for the holidays!
