Three Stellar Outfits
to Wear for the Holidays

There are a lot of social gatherings ahead. Office parties, family get-togethers and hanging out with friends (both your current friends and the ones you see when you head back to your hometown). What are you going to wear? You should aim to look festive but not goofy. That means no ugly sweaters, no antlers and maybe we should all agree to just forget about mistletoe this year. Here are a few suggestions. Consider it your holiday packing list.

Get Dressed Up

For fancy affairs or Moms who casually mention, "no jeans, honey." A luxe, textural sweater and maybe a jacket with a subtle but seasonal check. Rugged lug-soled boots keep it all from looking too perfectly polished.

In Warmer Climates

The holidays can be uncomfortable enough. Look festive without overheating. A not-too-heavy flannel shirt adds some wintery style you can wear even if it's sunny and 65 out. Roll the sleeves and layer it over an easy T-shirt. Don't forget some smart looking shades.
