10 Holiday Outfit Ideas Using What’s Already In My Closet

It’s always a struggle to figure out what to wear when it’s freezing but I still want to feel a little dressed up—holiday parties, Christmas concerts, date nights, NYE, girls’ nights, Christmas Eve, candlelight services, all of it🙌🏽 here are a few outfits I tried on recently when trying to figure out what to wear to a holiday party♥️🌲

Everything I’m wearing is linked under each photo (and I added similar pieces if something is older!). These links are affiliate links, which means I may earn a small commission. Thank you so much for being here and supporting me!

1. A sheer top + black jeans + heels

I love a sheer top and I have a tank under this one, but just a bra would be cute too! bra if it’s colder or snowy you can trade the heels out for black boots!

    2. A black midi (or maxi) dress + tall boots + scarf

    This is such a good combo and so easy! It’s definitely worth it to have a black dress you love.

    This satin top has been one of my favorites for 3 years now. Love the green and the flattering neckline!

    5. A black cardigan + black skirt + black boots

    Never underestimate how good a monochromatic look is! I love all black but any color you love works.

    6. A top + duster cardigan + jeans + tall boots

    Any top you love and a long cardigan always looks elevated! As for the jeans, it can be wide leg, straight leg, skinny or whatever you like.

    I love the black and green combo, but any color skit you have would work well for this look.

    A Holiday Outfit (that isn’t full on red or green)

    Personally, I love to deck myself out in holiday colors during the Christmas season, but I know not everyone does! This post is for my neutral lovers who want to add just a *touch* of festive flair to their neutral outfit this holiday season.

    This otherwise neutral outfit is made slightly festive with a green or red piece of jewelry from Sela Designs (see close-ups below!)

    Outfit linked HERE!

    Sela Designs is a jewelry brand that donates 100% of their profits to charity—they help stop human trafficking, help provide homes for orphans, & help break the cycle of generational poverty. This alone is a wonderful reason to support them, but another great reason is their jewelry is beautifully made and high quality.

    I am sharing two pieces from their holiday collection, but I own a few more pieces as well that I’ll link at the end of the post. You can use MARISSA10 to save a little bit of money on your order.

    This is the Restore Necklace—it’s made from a green garnet stone and has a 14k gold filled beaded chain. I love the beautiful jade green color and how unique it is!

    This is the Mini Red Garnet Necklace. I love it because garnet is my birthstone, and the gems are the most beautiful deep red. You can get matching earrings too!

    Other pieces I own and love from Sela Designs:
