Last week, I stopped into LOFT to make a return. Of course, I had to film a quick try-on while I was there (check out that reel HERE!). Out of all the cute holiday pieces I found in the store, this present-themed holiday sweater was my favorite. I thought the bow detail was absolutely adorable. I decided to buy it, knowing I’d want to wear it on repeat this month. Plus, I knew it would be perfect for a great blog post!
Today, I’m excited to share with you six outfits you can style with this cute festive holiday sweater.
How to wear a holiday sweater
Outfit 1: Holiday Sweater + Pleated skirt
I love pleated skirts! Around the holidays, I usually style them with a sweater, and I felt this sweater would look adorable paired with a burgundy-colored skirt from Gap Factory. It’s a perfect outfit for a work party or brunch.
For shoes, I chose my favorite black pumps, which I thrifted, but the brand is A New Day from Target—one of my favorite brands for affordable pumps! They’re so comfortable. To make them a bit more festive, I added these cute little shoe clips from Amazon. They’re such an easy way to dress up your everyday shoes and add a holiday touch.

Outfit 2: Holiday Sweater + Faux Leather Skirt
This faux leather skirt is one of my favorite pieces to wear this time of year. I thrifted it years ago from ThredUP, but you can find the exact skirt available on Amazon. It pairs beautifully with my holiday sweater, creating a chic and festive look.
I styled it with tights and my tall stiletto-heeled boots for a sleek finish. To add a pop of red, I included my red purse from Macy’s. I love how red accessories instantly elevate any holiday outfit!

Outfit 3: Holiday sweater + Leggings + Red Coat + Boots
I love that this sweater is the perfect length to pair with various styles of pants—even leggings. For this outfit, I styled it with my faux leather leggings (Code: THRIFTYWIFEXSPANX for 20% off) for a sleek and modern look. To add a pop of red, I threw on my red coat from maurices, which adds a festive touch.
For shoes, I chose block-heel boots, which are both stylish and comfortable—perfect for any holiday outing!

Outfit 4: Holiday sweater + Flare Jeans + Red Purse + Booties
I’m loving my flare jeans from LOFT right now! It’s always fun to switch up the silhouettes of my jeans, and these pair perfectly with this sweater. This outfit has a more casual vibe compared to the other looks, so I dressed it up a bit with block-heeled black booties.
To add a festive touch, I accessorized with my red purse. This outfit would be perfect for a kid’s party at school or a family holiday get-together!

Outfit 5: Holiday sweater + Coated jeans + Heels
I love black jeans with a shiny finish. Whether they’re faux leather, sequins, or a coated finish, they can really elevate your look. This pair of coated black jeans is from maurices last year, and they pair beautifully with the sweater and a pair of heels. (See how I styled Black Coated Jeans HERE!!)
I think this is another fantastic casual holiday party look—perfect for work, a school holiday concert, or even a date night out.

Outfit 6: Holiday sweater + Straight-leg jeans + Plaid coat
For the final look, I’m styling straight-leg jeans from LOFT. I paired them with my plaid coat from maurices and block-heel neutral booties I bought last year at Target.
I think this is a fantastic outfit for lunch with friends. It’s the perfect elevated casual look—effortless yet polished.
