How to Create Festive Christmas Looks Using Clothes You Already Own

You don’t need to buy a whole new wardrobe to look festive this holiday season. With a little creativity, you can put together Christmas-inspired outfits using pieces you already have. I have put together 11 ways to style your everyday clothes for a cheerful, holiday-ready look!

If you ARE looking to fill some holes in your wardrobe or add something to your outfit rotation, I will link each outfit below each photo (if pieces are older or unavailable, I will link similar styles. This will be noted in the LTK description).

As always, I use affiliate links. This just means I earn a small commission if you shop using these links, at no additional cost to you. I appreciate you shopping my links as it helps me to continue putting together these posts. Thank you!

A pop of red: to make almost any outfit feel more Christmasy, throw on a red accessory (a beanie like this one, or a red scarf, red mittens, red bag, red shoes etc)

Try burgundy: if you don’t love red, try burgundy! It’s a trending color right now & it works for all sorts of occasions (Thanksgiving/ Valentines & Christmas!). Make it extra cute by matching your socks!

Wear satin or go for a monochromatic outfit: a satin slip skirt (in any color!) is always a winner for the holidays. I went ahead & made a green monochromatic look & love how festive it feels!

Throw on a holiday scarf: the plaid colors in this scarf make it perfect for Christmas, but a solid scarf in green, red, white, or cream would work too!

Wear festive jewelry: stick with a neutral outfit and add red or green jewelry! These two pieces are from Sela Designs and you can use MARISSA10 for $$ off.
