Red Pleated Skirt + Black Off Shoulder Top + Black Suede Pumps
A red pleated skirt is a total showstopper, and when paired with an off shoulder black top, it brings elegance and holiday cheer to the next level. This look gives chic and flirty; I love that the off shoulder black top just shows the right amount of skin without going overboard. A black and red pairing is always an interesting combo because it is not only bold, but looks sophisticated. This Christmas outfit for ladies works because of the color and texture of the two pieces. The bright red pleated skirt is the base for the holiday look and adds vintage flair. The black off shoulder top creates a great contrast to the red pleated skirt, balancing out the colors so the bright red is not too much.
Guys, this combo works for whatever Christmas holiday party you are planning on going. It is a dressed up outfit but its not over-the top. I paired this look with my holiday suede pumps in black ,and for jewelry, I added this gold tone chain link necklace and drop earrings. Since we are going for a festive look, we want some sparkle in the outfit.
You can also pair this outfit with ankle boots in neutral colors like black , white or beige. The weather this Fall has been great, and I hope to have a mild winter but nevertheless, you need a shawl to wrap yourself as you walk in and out of the party. A leather jacket will do wonders for this outfit.
Red Bow Skirt + Striped Turtleneck + Chelsea Boots
Another pairing that is quite festive and fun is combining a red bow skirt with a striped turtleneck top. As you can see, I love red! Seriously, the red bow skirt is giving holiday and whimsical vibes, while the striped top keeps things casual and stylish. There is something about stripes that makes an outfit pop but also gives off relatable vibes, which means you can stand out at the party but still not be over the top.
You can throw on ankle boots, pumps or even knee high boots for this look. I wear a of pumps and so I decided to give heels a break and got these Chelsea boots , that are super comfortable.
It was a warm day when I took these pictures, but since the holidays happen in frigid weather, you can pair this outfit with a sleek leather jacket to complete the look. The contrast of the striped top and red skirt against a moto jacket is very cool. Stay away from cardigans when going for chic outfits, as they can make you look slouchy and wider. For jewelry, I had on simple huggies earrings in silver. Since the striped top is doing a lot of “talking” and the bow on the red skirt is center stage, minimal jewelry like stud earrings are a great idea. A black purse or clutch completes the look!
Satin Blouse + Black Leather Pants +Animal Print Pumps
If you want to turn things up at your next Christmas holiday party, then consider a satin red blouse paired with black leather pants! This is the look that says you came to slay and party.
The red satin blouse is all about the holidays and is the main piece for this outfit. Pairing with black leather pants gives the outfit a cool twist. It is like you are chic but also bad ass!. Tucking the blouse gives it a more put together look that is classy and chic.
Complete the look with some animal print pumps heels to add attitude to the outfit. I also added a gold tone necklace for a little sparkle. Add a black or red leather clutch or go for an animal print purse. This is an easy and professional look that can work for an office holiday party!
Purple Maxi Dress+Black Pumps
Did you know that purple is another holiday color that makes a great choice for Christmas holiday outfits for women! It’s rich, elegant, and a little unexpected, which makes it stand out in all the best ways. The deep long sleeved purple dress feels festive, and is a good break from reds and greens so you can stand out. Purple and gold work well together which is why I added this gold tone collar necklace that adds a touch of sparkle and makes the outfit feel even more special.
I finished it off with some sleek black suede pumps to keep it chic and sophisticated, without taking away from the dress. The pumps are classic, so they balance out the boldness of the purple while keeping everything looking polished and put-together. It’s the perfect mix of festive and stylish—just right for celebrating the holiday season!
To complete the look, I added a quilted gold chain handle bag. The gold chain gives it a bit of glam, while the quilted texture adds some sophistication. It’s the perfect match for the gold necklace and really ties everything together.
Red Dress + Gold Pumps + Gold Purse
If you want to go for a show-stopping look this holiday season, then you should pair a red dress with gold pumps and a gold purse!. Red and gold are glamorous colors that are perfect for any celebration. I love red and so any chance I get to wear it especially as a Christmas holiday outfit for women you know I will take it! Red screams celebration and gold accents just add a spin to the outfit!
Why red and gold you may ask! First red symbolizes passion and energy, then gold adds warmth and glamour and when these two colors come together, they create a striking contrast which will be have you standing out at the holiday party. It’s a look that stands out without being over-the-top. Red draws the eye, and gold adds that subtle sparkle we all crave this time of year, so get ready to shine with this pairing
Now, let’s talk about these shoes. Gold pumps? Yes, please. Gold pumps deserve their own blog post because they are a statement all on their own. They work with pretty much any red dress, whether it’s something simple or a bit more elaborate. Plus, they add that extra sparkle and shine that’s perfect for the holiday season.
And for the cherry on top for this outfit – the gold purse! I chose this to march with the gold shoes and to add sparkle and depth to the look. The purse is essential for phones, lip gloss and hand sanitizer. You can go for a metallic clutch or a structured gold bag but it depends on the design of the dress, and and as long as it makes your outfit feel polished.
To complete the look, you’ll want to keep the rest of your accessories simple but elegant. I went for a black collar necklace which I felt wouldn’t mess with the gold and red vibe. If the weather calls for it, then you can add a neutral shawl or my favorite, a black leather jacket to the outfit.
Silver Pleated Skirt + Black Sweater + Black Boots
Ok so maybe you don’t want all the spotlight that bright colors give, and are going for an elegant and comfy look at the same time! Consider pairing a silver pleated skirt with a black long-sleeved sweater and black heeled boots for a chic and cozy look.
This metallic pleated skirt adds a touch of sparkle and whimsy to the outfit, while the black sweater keeps the look grounded and comfy. Black boots add elegance to the outfit as they contrast well with the silver skirt while also keeping me warm. This look works for any occasion from family gatherings to holiday parties. Accessorize with simple silver necklace , earrings, and a sleek black clutch to complete the look or if you want to go for a semi bold look, you can add a red purse to the outfit and combine bold and mystery at the same time!
Striped Black and White Mini Skirt + Red Sweater + Studded Thigh High Boots
For this holiday look, I paired a striped black and white mini skirt with a red sweater, then threw in these studded thigh high boots and a sequin clutch. You guys know that I am obsessed with stripes and so I took the opportunity to try this out. The red sweater is giving a holiday vibe while the striped mini skirt is playful and not too serious. The red sweater has studs on the wrists which give the outfit an edge and takes it to the next level.
The studded thigh-high boots in my opinion are the MVP of this look. They are bold, fun sexy, fierce and dramatic and give this outfit another dimension. On top of that, they keep me warm. To add some holiday sparkle, I couldn’t resist pairing this outfit with a sequin clutch. It’s just the right amount of glitz without looking like I’m trying too hard.
For accessories, I decided to add this pearl head band and gold studded earrings. I also had an inspiration bracelet that I like to wear but wasn’t really needed for this outfit.
Red Mini Dress + Black Turtleneck + Ivory Boots
I love this look! This red mini dress is all about holiday cheer. Rich and vibrant color that is perfect for holiday gatherings and Christmas parties. It is very cold out there so I layered with a black turtleneck underneath, which added warmth and the contrast created is amazing, it makes the red pop louder!
I chose this pair of ivory knee high boots to soften the look and add personality to the outfit. Plus I feel that this outfit is about the red and white boots and the black turtleneck is for layering.
For accessories, I went with this quilted bag , the texture of the quilted fabric adds some depth to the outfit. And of course, I couldn’t resist a pearl headband to top it all off. The pearls give it just the right amount of elegance, while still feeling playful and fun. This outfit is seriously cozy, and ready for the holidays. Where would I wear this? Christmas dinner with family and friends, Christmas brunch but probably not a good idea for an office party
Sparkly Black Dress + Red Pumps + Pearl Heart Bag
Did you know that you can wear black for a Christmas holiday outfit! Like this sparkly black long-sleeved dress. It’s got that perfect amount of shimmer that catches the light just right. It’s elegant, but not too stuffy, which I really love for the holidays. Plus, the long sleeves make it perfect for winter, no need to worry about freezing! I love how it feels so classic but still festive enough to make you feel like you’re celebrating. Whether you’re at a Christmas dinner, a holiday party, or just out for a night of fun, this dress gives off all the glam vibes.
Let’s talk about my choice of shoes. I paired the dress with a pair of bold red pumps. I was going for a holiday look and so I thought , why not inject red in to the outfit! They’re the perfect way to add a little color to an otherwise neutral outfit. The heels give me that extra confidence boost, and honestly, they’re just so fun to wear. Plus, they totally make the outfit feel more festive, after all , what’s a Christmas outfit without a little red!
And then there’s the bag. I couldn’t resist this pearl heart-shaped bag—it’s just too cute! Pearls always give off this elegant, timeless vibe, and the heart shape adds a super sweet, romantic touch. I love how it contrasts with the sparkly dress and red shoes—it’s a little bit girly, a little bit classic, and just the right accessory to bring it all together. If it’s cold, throw on a cute faux fur stole or a sleek coat to keep warm without losing any style points.
Red Sequin Pants + White Turtleneck Sweater +Black Suede Pumps
Is there anything more Christmassy than red sequin pants! Sparkly, bold and so much fun for the holidays. These pants add a little extra magic to any outfit. Because the red sequin pants are extra, I toned the look down by pairing a white turtleneck sweater which is quite cozy and gives the outfit a nice balance without taking away from the pants
Then I threw on black suede pumps to add sophistication to the outfit and oomph to a special time of the year! I finished off the look with a black shoulder bag , a black necklace to create a nice contrast that allows the red and white to pop. This pearl headband give the outfit a sweet and elegant touch. Details matter people! This is one of my favorite holiday party outfits that gets me into a festive mood, thanks to the sparkles !
White Skirt + Red Sweater + Green Pumps
You can call me the little black elf because I am working this look:) This is a very festive outfit that is not too over the top, so let me explain why this works! Is it possible to have Christmas without red?, No way! This red holiday sweater screams holiday vibes and you know how festive this bold color is. It is also warm which is perfect for winter weather.
A white skirt in winter! Yes, its perfect for the season. The color is the perfect contrast to balance the bolder tones of the red and green. It’s all about finding that clean, elegant look and this simple, flare skirt does the trick.
I know going with these green shoes is a bit much but I think they give the outfit that extra holiday magic while looking sophisticated. It is paying homage to Christmas without trying too hard. The cool green complements the red perfectly, which is why I said I am an elf.
For accessories, I went with this sleek black purse that has tiny pearl accents that upgrades the look. It is a nice contrast against the red, green and white. Black is a universal color that grounds the look without taking away from the festive vibes of the other colors. The gold tone bracelet matches the metal color of the holiday. It is understated but still oozing of a sparkle which compliments the other colors well.
