Holiday Party Outfit Ideas

Find a festive look for your next holiday celebration.
If you’re wondering what to wear to a holiday party without going full-on tinsel, the secret is blending festive sparkle with your own signature style. From floor-sweeping gowns to chic sweater-and-skirt combos, the best holiday outfits are equal parts comfort and confidence. Here’s your inspiration guide to women’s holiday party outfits that shine at everything from black-tie soirées to cozy nights in with some cocoa.

Holiday Party Outfits

Ready to turn heads and own the room? Whether you’re rocking a sleek cocktail dress, a sharply tailored jumpsuit, or a sumptuous velvet number, the key to a standout holiday look is playing with texture – think sequins that catch the light or satin that drapes like a dream. Amp it up with sparkling holiday party shoes and accessories – glittering heels, a beaded purse that’s basically wearable art, and statement jewelry.

Work Holiday Party Outfits

For a work holiday party, think sleek trousers paired with a shimmery blouse, so you can celebrate while still looking professional. A midi dress in a rich, festive hue is another win, especially when topped with a structured blazer for instant polish. Finish the look with subtle sparkle, like a delicate necklace, and classic heels that add just enough lift to your confidence (and your outfit).

Casual Holiday Party Outfits

For those laid-back holiday gatherings, cozy-chic is the name of the game. Slip into a sweater dress with tall boots for effortless charm, rock an oversized knit with faux-leather pants for a cool-meets-comfy twist, or throw a velvet blazer over boyfriend jeans for instant casual glam. Top it off with ankle boots, a crossbody bag, and a layered necklace that makes even your “just popped over” look feel intentionally fabulous.
