Happy Wednesday!
I know the blog has been overflowing with a bunch of holiday gift guides lately (for her, him, coworkers, and even options under $50) because Christmas is quickly approaching, so I’m pretty sure gift shopping has not only been one of my top priorities, but also yours as well 😉
But today, I’m finally back with an outfit post! 😀 After all, fashion’s not only one of my favorite topics to write about, it’s also the reason I started this blog in the first place! So without further ado, let’s take a look at this holiday-inspired outfit!
For the beautiful holiday season, you can never go wrong with plaid, and I put my outfit together with Christmas’s most-loved pattern in mind. There are so many different variations of plaid, but the holiday theme largely revolves around reds. But rather than choosing the traditional red-and-green combo, I decided to opt for a red-and-navy skirt that has very subtle pops of green to make the overall look a little softer (and more wearable).
To complete the whole Winter Wonderland look, I opted for one of my newest eyelash sweaters in ivory. Not only are they super warm and comfy, they also look so cute and chic! The best part is that they can be dressed down with jeans, but likewise, they can be dressed up with skirts too. They’re really perfect for the holiday season since the top’s so fashionable, but at the same time, it’s still a sweater, so you won’t have to sacrifice style for comfort (or vice versa because, let’s be real, no one wants to look like a rockstar but be freezing their butts off at the Christmas or New Years party).
To combat the chilly weather, I have on a super thick pair of tights. They’re so comfortable and cozy, so they’re perfect for the holiday season when you want to wear a pretty skirt or dress for parties or a night out. And of course, I topped off the whole ensemble with a statement gold necklace and my favorite dark brown suede ankle booties for a sleeker and more put-together vibe.

You look so beautiful, Elizabeth! I would never have thought to pair a plaid skirt with that fuzzy top, but it looks great! You look cozy, but really stylish at the same time 😉 That’s a hard combo to hit! I always end up looking baggy and homeless when I’m “cozy” hahaha I hope you’re having a great week! Thanks for a refreshing outfit pic in a sea of gift guides 😉
