For most of us, this is a tricky one to dress for because on one hand, you want to maintain an air of professionalism in front of your co-workers. While on the other hand, you don’t want to dress like you would on any other workday. Where does that leave you? Somewhere between formal and festive, which can be hard to pinpoint—and that’s where we come in. Try our Lisa 2.0 tried-and-true faux wrap dress! She is already a workwear staple, however this season she is in a fun and festive red floral print perfect for that Holiday party!

A look is never complete without a little extra coverage during the cold winter season. Go for a cool and cozy layered look by adding a shrug or cardigan on top of your outfit for the Holidays! Contrary to popular belief, a cardigan does not have to be an outfit ruiner, just pick one that has unique features that will ultimately add to your Holiday look. The CAxLZ Bianca cardigan in metallic bronze is a good option with its slinky, soft material and extra length and coverage. She will keep you warm all night while also adding a little shimmer and shine to your look! 

When the occasion calls for formal attire, polished glamour and feminine charm is the key for your holiday outfits. Add that extra flair to your look with sequin lace fabric like the all new Grace dress in black or a holiday print like the Sara 2.0 dress in red floral. Catch the light at every turn and steal the spotlight in photos with sparkling sequins, or a bold colored gown. No matter how you celebrate the Holidays, when figuring out what to wear for the Holidays, keep in mind the nature of the event. Show up feeling confident in your look by being prepared and dressing for the right dress code. Learn more on our Dress Codes Decoded blog!

Family photos for the Holidays are always a mother’s favorite! Granted, there is a level of stress that comes with dragging your family to a photo shoot. However, the end result is always worth the hassle! Book a great photographer and let us help you with what to wear! Go color coordinated with a bold holiday color, or go neutral. The CAxLZ Tracey top is a good piece to add that subtle sparkle to the photos and the tie front neckline will be great for those close ups! Whether your Holiday outfits for family photos are going to skew casual or fancy, we have a style for you.

Nothing says cocktail hour quite like a sequin lace dress. Our Isabelle Dress is perfect for a holiday cocktail hour. The chiffon flounce sleeves add a sophisticated and modern twist to a classic sheath silhouette. While the fabric hugs your body in all the right places without being constricting. Pair with strappy black heels and your favorite silver jewelry for a stand out holiday outfit your girlfriends won’t be able to stop talking about.

Here’s a holiday tradition that’s a seasonal staple! Put on your favorite holiday playlist, slip into the Nora wine plaid dress, and go for a drive around town to see all the fun holiday lights. Our Michele long sleeve dress is guaranteed to keep you comfortable whether you’re walking around or sitting down. Not to mention the plaid design and red accents will be the perfect holiday outfit choice for all your pictures. 

Can you imagine ringing in the New Year without the sparkle of lights? There'd be no magic! So shouldn't your New Year holiday outfit shine just as bright? We think so, which is why we turned up the razzle and dazzle on our favorite holiday fashions for women with gorgeous details that celebrate shimmer, glimmer and glamour. The Stevie sequin dress is a glitzy knee length sheath dress that will elevate any special occasion. No matter if the moment has you watching the ball drop at home with family, out with friends or celebrating at a glitzy event, these holiday outfits will have you looking spectacular.
