Holiday Style Made Easy: Restyle Your Closet Like a Pro

Hey fashionistas,

With the holidays in full swing, it’s worth having a few outfit options on hand, even if your plans are still coming together.

Before you head out shopping, I’d like for you to take a moment to appreciate what’s already hanging in your wardrobe. Remember those fabulous pieces you’ve only worn once or twice? It’s time to restyle them in ways that are fresh and unexpected.

Here are five holiday styling tips to make your closet work overtime this season:

1. Break up the set

You don’t have to wear that fancy two-piece the way you bought it. Pair a dressy skirt with a simple, fitted sweater or a fun graphic tee. Or take that sequined blazer and team it up with dark jeans, a crisp white shirt, and loafers. You’ll look stylish and cool without trying too hard.

2. Play with textures

The holidays are a great time to mix it up. Think corduroy with satin, velvet with denim, or even leather with soft knits. For example, dress down a velvet dress with a denim jacket and boots, or dress up a corduroy blazer with tailored pants and a silky top. Mixing textures keeps your look interesting and unique.

3. Rethink holiday colors

Forget sticking to red and green. Jewel tones like amethyst and emerald, metallics like bronze and pewter, or even frosty pastels can make just as big a statement. Want to stand out even more? Mix these shades with unexpected neutrals like navy or camel for a sophisticated holiday vibe.

4. Elevate the everyday

Your casual pieces can have a holiday moment too. Pair tailored joggers or sleek black leggings with a satin blouse and heels. Or wear a tulle skirt with a cozy knit sweater and ankle boots. Combining casual and dressy is an effortless way to feel stylish and comfortable all night.

5. The easiest outfit formula ever

A statement blazer, tailored jeans, and stylish loafers or block heels. Done. This combo works for almost anything—office parties, happy hours, or family dinners. Add a statement necklace, a brooch, or even a red lip to make it festive without going over the top.

Make your wardrobe work for you
