Tartans and sequins and tweeds, oh my! With the holiday season here, the stores are buzzing with new festive pieces for your next winter soiree. Most likely, they will be tucked back into your closet after the New Year celebrations. So, I have the mindset that I don’t want to break the bank to dress in holiday cheer. Since under $100 is always the sweet spot for buying statement purchases, here are some of my favorite festive fashions for under $100.
Black Watch Boho Dress
First thing first, I absolutely love my festive boho dress. Year after year, black watch tartan is always a favorite and is subtle to wear all winter long. It doesn’t scream Christmas-y. This particular style is made even better because it looks similar to the ever-popular Hill House Nap Dress but is about half the price. For those in colder weather than sunny St. Pete, I recommend layering with a black or navy tissue turtleneck and cozy tights.
Red Tartan Midi Dress
Nothing beats the holiday season in New York! Next week, we’ll be popping up to NYC for the weekend, and I was able to snag a dinner reservation at the Polo Bar. I thought this bright red tartan dress was perfect for the occasion. While this particular plaid is a peak choice for the holiday season, I want to wear it as often as possible. This dress will be perfect with black suede heels and a black wool topcoat. I’ve never been more excited to wear an outfit!
Turtleneck Sweater Dress
Sweater dresses seem so wildly impractical while living in Florida, but I already ordered one for our Christmas in Vermont this year. This green turtleneck dress is the perfect hue and would look adorable with a pair of black equestrian boots. It’s the kind of look that you could also wear on a beautiful fall day or for a Thanksgiving get-together. Although the color may be just right for the holiday season, the possibilities are endless!
Sweater and Plaid Mini Skirt Combo
There’s something about the sweater and mini skirt combo that I will forever associate with Gossip Girl. Blair Waldorf would love this tartan skirt for the season, as she ice skates in Central Park. The rhinestone details on the black crewneck sweater give it enough character for a holiday party or dinner at Rolf’s. Wear with a pair of black tights and Chelsea boots for a look that is equal parts feminine and practical.
As you begin shopping for your Naughty and Nice list, don’t forget to treat yourself. Finding the perfect holiday attire feels like such an accomplishment and makes the holiday season even brighter. Happy shopping!
