Step out in style this holiday season! Style expert, Antonia Fifi shares the staples you need to create an outfit for any holiday occasion. From luxurious textures like sequins and glitter to cozy faux fur, scroll on to shop the looks to look and feel festive this season.

Faux Fur

Add elegance to any outfit with faux fur. We love injecting faux fur into our accessories to make this trend wearable and practical. Think of things like chats, purses, vests, and more. We love this faux fur vest to add more versatility, plus the oversized cut adds to the glam of the outfit. It also doubles as an accessory, so don’t worry about checking your coat or taking it off.

Sequins and Glitters

Sparkle is a holiday staple, but many of us can be intimidated to wear it. If a full sequin dress feels too busy, invest in a skirt, pants or top as an alternative. Pair sequins and glitter patterns with your basics and neutrals, like a white shirt to give the casual look a pop of sparkle. And remember: mixing metallic tones is allowed. The key is to balance the textures with visually softer, cozier textures like knits and wools.

Satin

Satin dresses never go out of style for the holidays. It’s a classic look that you’ll wear for many years with the right pieces. When shopping, look for a casual, loose shape and features like rouching in satin pieces for functionality and comfort.
