Name a more exciting season to get dressed than the holidays. There isn’t one — mostly because you finally have an excuse to pile on the metallics and sequins and ultra-luxe textures without anyone batting an eye. It’s the best time of the year to let your personality shine through, and with the busy end-of-year social calendar creeping up on all of us, now’s the time to round out your wardrobe with pieces that are accessible, easy to style, and don’t break the bank.
Enter festive pieces from Old Navy that are fit for any holiday get-together. From metallic minis to romantic statement blouses, the seasonal assortment of style essentials features an array of must-haves for building the ultimate holiday party look. Best of all, the latest Old Navy collection is festive and is rooted in versatile denim — both unexpected (hello, embellished) and classic — so you can prioritize comfort without compromising on feeling fancy.
Below, find three outfit formulas that’ll take you all the way through New Year’s, and shop the on-trend pieces that bring them together. With everything here under $60, there’s no reason not to stock up on clothing for yourself, plus wrap up a few for all the style-minded people on your list, too.
Pair Dressed-Up Bottoms With Classic Tops
If you’re a jeans girl but the occasion calls for something more special (think drinks with your significant other’s parents or a work happy hour), try a silver-coated mini skirt or ankle jeans embellished with rhinestones. Since the skirt packs a punch, keep the rest of the look simple with a festive, casual sweater or classic button-up. It’s a type of sartorial balance that you, and frankly anyone you know, will love.
Elevate Jeans & Skirts With Party-Ready Blouses
Velvet blouses and festive puff-sleeved tops are must-haves for the winter months and will take you well beyond the holiday season. For a friend’s potluck or a visit to your local holiday market, they can dress up a simple pair of skinny or mom jeans, but they can also be worn later on with silky skirts, flowy trousers, and leather minis. Think of these as the gift that keeps on giving.
Lean Into The All-Over Fancy Vibe
When the occasion calls for going all out, lean on the attention-grabbing power of a bold, red velvet dress complemented by hints of sparkle in your jewelry or shoes. You also can’t go wrong with an ombre-sequined mini dress or an elevated satin black suit for the holidays. No matter which look you land on, don’t cover it up with a bulky coat; instead, reach for a glamorous faux-fur scarf (and don’t forget to buy an extra to gift to your most fashion-forward bestie).
