Helping women love what they wear on a budget

5 Holiday Wardrobe Staples

December 13, 2021 by Katie H.

 
This year as I sat down to write about my favorite holiday wardrobe essentials, I realized that I have already written the same exact post.  I went back through my archives and realized that everything I wanted to share this year was the same thing I posted 2 years ago.  So instead of writing the same exact post, I decided to update it and repost.

Every year when the holiday season rolls around I find myself reaching for the same wardrobe items in my closet.  These are what I call my holiday wardrobe staples.  They are the clothes and accessories that I re-wear every year in December.  Many of my holiday staples have been in my closet for years.  I don’t get rid of them because I know that when December rolls around I will want to wear them again.  I have also thrifted many of my holiday wardrobe staples.  It saves me money and they are usually classic pieces that are always in style year after year.
 
Here are my holiday wardrobe staples in my closet.
 
red sweater with green skirt
 

 Red and Green

My wardrobe is filled with red and green pieces that I wear year-round, but in December I love to mix the two colors together to create festive looks.
 

 

Plaid top and black pleated skirt
 

Plaid

Nothing says Christmas to me like plaid.  I love to wear plaid around the holidays.  Any plaid with pops of green and red are perfect to wear in December.
 

 

Plaid scarf
 

Scarves

I’ve been asked recently if scarves are out of style.  My answer is no! Especially around the holidays.  I love a cute plaid scarf in December.  Even better if the scarf has red and green in it!
 
 

 

Sequin skirt with metallic top
 

Sequins

Sequins are everywhere this holiday season.  I have been loving sequins in my holiday wardrobe for years now.  They always make the best New Year’s Even outfit!
 
 
 
 
Metallic skirt with tights and statement necklace
 

Metallics

Just like sequins, I love anything shiny, so metallics are always a must in my holiday wardrobe!

I found some fun pieces on my latest @amazon order I found some fun pieces on my latest @amazon order! Here's how they look! 

T-shirt hoodie- $21.50- I love this top! It feels like a t-shirt so it's perfect for layering under jackets! 

Flare leggings $24.99- aka yoga pants. These pants take me back to the early 2000's. I am loving them! 

Tunic $24.98- Love this tunic! It's a great length. Perfect for layering under sweaters! 

Matte faux leather leggings- These are the best faux leather legging dupe for the Spanx I have found so far! 

Wide leg trousers- I have loved these pants on everyone else, but they weren't my favorites. I still felt that they are a great pair of trousers!

I have another round up of cozy outfits! I have to admit that I have been in a bit of a style rut! The lack of sunshine has made it really hard for me to feel motivated to get creative with my outfits and I've been finding myself repeating the same clothes over and over again. 

That's why this week I built each outfit around one piece in my wardrobe that I haven't worn in a while. I have a lot of clothes and sometimes rediscovering pieces that I love help my outfits feel more fun and creative!
