What to Wear for Christmas on a Budget

The Holiday season is fast approaching. I have my first Christmas party in a few weeks and I am trying to figure out what I want to wear.

I am a traditionalist when it comes to the Holidays. Red, Green and White. These are the colours of Christmas and I am a stickler about sticking to this colour pallet and playing up the Christmas theme. All of the items in this roundup, save the shoes with the sparkly toes, are under $100. They work perfectly for Christmas on a Budget shoppers.

What to wear for Christmas on a Budget:

What I love about this round up is you can mix and match almost any piece to create different Christmas looks. Find something similar in your closet or pick up one of the affordable finds to finish off the look.

Because it is the Holidays and it is likely to be cold I wouldn’t suffer through bare legged. Try something with some sparkle and shimmer to play up the fun that is the Christmas season.

If you skew a bit more casual on Christmas or want to remix your Party look for Christmas Day, switch out a skirt for a pair of dark denim and you are good to go for spending some time eating turkey and hanging with family opening gifts.

I find for these more casual Christmas events a plaid shirt layered under a contrasting coloured sweater and some cheesy Christmas socks works like a charm. Think red plaid with a green sweater or green plaid with a red sweater. Or white you can always pair the coloured plaids with white.
