For the one who loves tradition

A cheery red knit is synonymous with holiday dressing and a go-to for when you want to look festive without going over the top. For a modern spin on a Christmas classic, opt for trendy details like a sculptural neckline of puff sleeves. Feeling nostalgic? Pair it with wool trousers, tartan socks and gold hoops.

For the holiday Hallmark movie lover

For the romantic at heart, a structured yet feminine dress with metallic fleck detail will make you swoon. Delicate puffed shoulders and midi length will look great with ballet flats or square-toed heel boots. Add some sparkly festive accessories and be on the lookout for mistletoe!

For the fitness enthusiast

You know some of the best parts of the holiday season can be found outdoors — tobogganing, ice skating, festive markets and more. And with the athleisure trend still going strong, it’s easy to dressy warmly, comfortably, and fashion-forward. Pair a fuzzy fleece or sherpa jacket with high-waisted leggings and hiking boots to keep you cozy on the slopes or try it open with a knit bra top for a cute apres-ski look.

For the small gathering goer

You prefer a casual hang with friends over a big party, but that doesn’t mean you’re slacking on your holiday outfit picks. A polo sweater dress feels relaxed but still cool. Opt for a fitted silhouette with slouchy over the knee boots in monochrome black for a look thats timelessly chic

For the one who can’t say no to a party

The leather dress has emerged this season as the “it” piece for those looking to make a fashion statement. A modern silhouette in a cool, neutral is trendy without being try-hard and sure to make you stand out. Style it with sneakers for a casual daytime get together or minimalist kitten heels for nighttime party hopping.

For those who feel cutest when cozy

This might not work at your annual ugly Christmas sweater party, but if you buy one staple this season make it a knit cardigan. It’s simple, versatile and cozy. Layer it over a silk slip dress and knee-high boots for a laid-back party look, or with matching knit shorts for family movie nights in.

For the luxe lover

When planning your Christmas outfits you stick to chic, simple silhouettes with all of the polish and none of the fuss. A classic slip skirt pairs well with just about anything and we love it in this season’s unexpectedly trending bubblegum pink hue. Pull your look together with a blush knit sweater and delicately heeled white ankle boots.

For the rule breaker

Holiday dressing should be fun, festive, and true to your personal style. Never one to get lost in a family photo, you choose unique and creative pieces to elevate your outfit. A removable collar, like this one from Bronze Age, is an easy way to upgrade any outfit. We love to see it mixed and matched layered over a silky print blouse or brightly coloured sweater.

For the one who always makes an entrance

“When it doubt, overdress” are words you swear by and what better time to add a little glamour than a Christmas cocktail or dinner party! Think dramatic textures like sheer organza or sparkling silk for added allure, like this puff sleeve crop top. Pair it with fitted cigarette trousers or a satin skirt for added drama.

For the one with a unique sparkle

You’ve got festive spirit all year round and always wear what makes you feel good over what is expected. Grab a statement piece from your close and maximize your look with equally bold accessories, like a brightly hued heel or sating padded headband.
