As a girl who loves to get dressed up just for a coffee date, the holiday’s are even more of an excuse to step it up a notch when it comes to my style.
There are so many events during the holiday season from parties, gift exchanges, dinners and nights in with friends.
Most have a different dress code from casual to formal, so I put together some of my favourite looks for the holidays to give you a few ideas on what to wear.
My first and most formal outfit is this black lace dress.
I bought this dress from Winnners, and at only $29.99 it was a steal! Although I only bought it last week, it may be hard to find now so I have linked to similar ones below.
Lace dresses are so pretty and have a more formal feel, and the fit and flare style is one of the more flattering looks for all shapes and sizes.

Next up, something still dressy but more cozy and slightly more casual. If you know me, you know I have an obsession with leather skirts! I love the style of this one, and it pairs great with a chunky white sweater! Normally I keep my legs bare, but a chunky sweater looks great with a pair of cable-knit stockings with heels. The whole look is really simple, but I love the look of a pleated skirt toned down with a sweater.

Finally, my most casual holiday look obviously involves sequins. Although it pains me not to wear a skirt or dress (have you noticed I avoid pants at all costs?), this oversized sequinned DKNY sweater looked best with faux leather leggings. I bought the sweater in XL for two reasons – it’s all they had left in stock, and because I wanted to have the oversized look with leggings. I thought it looked great (more like a tunic because it’s so thin and long), and for some reason a clutch always make things look a little more chic.
