How to Make the most out of your Holiday Favorites
Looking for that one special piece that will make your outfit feel “holiday” but you’ll be able to wear again and again? You’re not alone! Don’t ever buy anything you can only wear once (unless it’s your wedding dress). Come on ladies, buying something you can only wear once is a waste of money, even if it’s an inexpensive piece. We’ve picked a few pieces; including metallics, jacquard, lace and flirty ruffles, perfect for the holidays. And YES of course, you can restyle them all for the New Year. Holiday outfits to wear.

Shimmer + Lace Layers
We love lace for the holidays. We’re especially loving this sheer, long sleeve lace detailed body suit. This is one of our top picks for so many reasons. First, let’s admit it ladies we all love a good black top, am I right? Second, the lace + sheer details give the top a romantic quality we’re loving. And last but definitely not least, it’s restyling capabilities.
Let’s talk restyling shall we….. A “statement” blouse doesn’t always have to take center stage. Think of ways for the blouse to simply be part of a look. We just layered it with a chunky sweater and pants for a more laid back look. Rethink your wardrobe daily!

Sweater + Denim Jacket
One of the easiest holiday outfits for any party is a dress. Flirty dresses are always a good idea any time of year. But what to do with that flirty dress after the holiday party is over? Layer it! Transform your sexy, flirty holiday dress into a cozy outfit by adding layers. A simple chunky sweater, denim jacket and boots will give your dress a casual vibe instantly.

Tee + Metallic Dress
Layers, layers and more layers. I sound like a broken record but layering is truly EVERYTHING when it comes to styling. This fitted metallic midi dress is the perfect example of how changing up layers can have a huge impact on a piece that at first glance doesn’t look very versatile.
By adding a cropped, fitted sweater over the dress and pairing the look with metallic mules makes this dress perfect for any holiday party. And by laying a simple tee under the dress and adding an edgy oxford style shoe, this midi tank dress takes on a whole new vibe.

Patent Moto + Tee
Found the ultimate holiday texture? We did too, Metallic Jacquard! Think it’s too difficult to restyle or dress down? Think again! Almost any time you need to dress down novelty or statement bottoms a great “go-to” is a graphic tee and moto jacket combo. These two pieces will instantly give you a low key, cool girl vibe.
