Things To Avoid This Holiday Season
When it comes to holiday party attire, many of us tend to head to that special section in the back of the closet (you know that we’re talking about) to pull out our party pieces year over year over year…. But because style trends do come and go, this practice can leave us looking a bit outdated in our party ware. Today, our stylists are talking about things to avoid this holiday season… And what to wear instead to ensure you are looking chic and modern!
The Color Red
While red is a classic holiday color, it can often feel a bit overdone this time of year. Instead of blending in with the sea of red at every holiday party… Why not stand out with something more unexpected? Neutrals or rich wine or berry tones are stunning alternatives that feel just as festive but far more modern and chic. It’s all about creating a look that feels fresh, stylish, and uniquely you this season!

Cold Shoulder Tops & Sweaters
While trends come and go, some are best left in the past… And cold shoulder tops definitely fall into that category. Once a popular choice, they now feel dated and out of touch with current styles. Instead of opting for this overdone look, we recommend embracing chic alternatives like off-the-shoulder tops or elegant blouses with unique sleeve details that feel more fresh and modern this holiday season. It’s all about keeping your wardrobe elevated and timeless!

Sequin Leggings
While there was a time where sequin leggings were popular for the holidays… They now fall into the “things to avoid this holiday season”. There is a more modern way to incorporate sequin bottoms into your holiday look. Instead, look for a sequin trouser or loose fitting pant. Pair the pant or trouser with a blouse or sweater in the same color.

Exaggerated Bell Sleeves
While bell sleeves haven’t completely lost their time in the limelight, the overly layered and exaggerated version has. If this is your preferred silhouette, there are plenty of options out there with more subtle and modern lines.

Tartan Plaid
While a red and black plaid mini skirt can be a chic look for the holidays, consider instead opting for a silk midi skirt in a deep red and pair with an oversized sweater in the same hue. Finish off your look with some black shoes and accessories. Always keep silhouettes in mind so your look feels fresh and modern.
