Fun Ways To Add A Festive Touch To Your Wardrobe
The battle happens every year. Christmas enthusiasts begin decorating for Christmas as early as the first signs of fall, dodging the holiday purists’ counterattacks who strongly protest this hasty Yuletide advent and declare instead that we should let the other holidays have their turn first. But whatever side of the fence you are on, with Thanksgiving officially behind us it’s finally acceptable for all camps to start getting excited about Christmas.
Christmas is one of the most popular holidays of the year, so there are always lots of options for spreading some Christmas cheer. One of our favorites is all the fun ways to add a festive touch to your wardrobe. And with a few suggestions and tips, we are here to help you do just that.
Here are some fun ways to add a festive touch to your wardrobe this Christmas season.
1. Hats
2. Scarves
3. Earrings
4. Socks/Slippers
5. Aprons
6. Sweaters/Shirts
7. Pajamas
1. Hats
Pardon the pun, but hats are one of the top ways to add a festive touch to your wardrobe this Christmas season.
Depending on the climate you live in, you probably only begin to bring out the hats during the holiday season as it turns chillier. So this is an excellent excuse to get to wear them and make them expressive. So if you’re up for wearing hats this season, why not mix a couple of festive hats into your outfits to help spread some holiday cheer!
If your personal style is more understated, even something as simple as a hat in the characteristic red or green or color combo with an extra touch of sparkle will be enough to suggest the holiday while remaining stylish.
But if you’re a bit more daring and don’t mind being a little cheeky with your wardrobe, find a hat with a seasonal phrase printed on it. Or even better yet, there are some very silly hats of all shapes and sizes, with bells and other noisemakers, and attachments that wobble and wiggle and light up that won’t fail to bring a smile to any face that sees it.
2. Scarves
Another fun way to add a festive touch to your wardrobe involves another seasonal accessory: scarves. Scarves are a great way to add a layered look to your outfit. This simple piece of fabric can be styled in various colors and materials, so it’s pretty easy to find some scarves that suggest more festive themes. Get a scarf that suggests the warmth of the holidays, and wrap that extra layer of coziness and cheer around you this season.
3. Earrings
Earrings are a great way to add a festive touch to your wardrobe this holiday season.
Seasonal holiday-themed earrings can come in all shapes and sizes to fit your personal style. Even if you have a minimalistic style, a small present, candy cane, snowflake, or any other Christmas-themed shaped stud can add a little holiday fun to your look. There are also various more expensive and sparkly takes on holiday earrings to keep you looking elegant, but still ready for the holidays.
Christmas-themed earrings are also a super fun way to just get ridiculous and silly with your outfit, and if that’s what you’re looking for you will find plenty of very humorous options.
4. Socks/Slippers
Nothing is cozier than fuzzy socks and slippers. And they are one of our favorite ways to add a festive touch to your wardrobe this season.
Socks are versatile because they can be worn exposed or hidden. So even if you have an important business meeting, you can still wear a pair of fun Christmas socks without them showing so you still remain professional in appearance, but they add a little cheer to your day just knowing they’re there.
But if professionalism isn’t an issue, you can also have tons of fun with Christmas socks! They can be a great way to show a little personality at work without going too far. Christmas-themed knee-highs can add some fun to a more neutral dress or outfit if you’re going out.
And best of all, fuzzy socks and slippers can be worn around the home for a layer of warmth and cheer while you cozy up with some hot chocolate to watch The Grinch for the millionth time.
5. Aprons
If you’re usually the host at holiday festivities, or maybe you’re just spending more time at home trying out new recipes, a fun way to add a festive touch to your wardrobe is with aprons.
There are tons of fun Christmas-themed aprons out there in stores or even more unique ones to be found online that you can really have fun with! Be playful and express yourself with an apron that is fun, festive, and functional.
6. Sweaters/Shirts
“Ugly” Christmas sweaters have become a tradition all their own, and are definitely a fun way to add a festive touch to your wardrobe. There are plenty of great Christmas shirts that work here, too.
While there certainly are more subdued sweaters out there that merely suggest a Christmas theme, the best Christmas sweaters are those that are over-the-top. And the more over-the-top and unique the better! It’s all part of the fun.
7. Pajamas
Last but certainly not least in our list of fun ways to add a festive touch to your wardrobe this Christmas season is to get a few good pairs of Christmas pajamas.
Whether you prefer a onesie, a comfy loungewear set, flannels, festive pajama bottoms, or an oversized nightshirt, Christmas-themed pajamas are the snuggliest way to keep Christmas alive throughout the whole holiday season.
So snuggle up next to the fireplace with the ones you love in your festive pj’s with some hot apple cider while you re-read The Night Before Christmas. Then all go to sleep soundly with dreams of sugar plums dancing in your heads.
