Real Simple's Editorial Guidelines Published on October 30, 2018 Share Tweet Pin Email Photo: Kevin Sweeney Whether you're going to meet your significant other's parents, or you're heading back home to visit your family, the holidays are always an exciting time of year. The only downside is never knowing what to pack. How many day outfits and dressier options should you take? How many pairs of shoes? Can you actually fit it all in one bag? We've come up with a stylish holiday wardrobe that can be mixed and matched to create an array of outfits. These festive (and wallet-friendly) looks will take you from making pumpkin pie to a Friendsgiving dinner in a heartbeat. 01 of 06 Sweater + Jeans + Scarf Kevin Sweeney This is the ideal in-flight outfit: comfy basics with your fluffiest oversized sweater. You'll stay warm on the go and save room in your suitcase for other essentials. 02 of 06 Blouse + Skirt + Boots Kevin Sweeney If you normally wear ankle- or calf-height boots with skirts, consider over-the-knee this season. It's a more modern look, and you can skip tights. When you arrive at your destination, hang silky items (like a flowy blouse) in the bathroom so wrinkles release as you shower. 03 of 06 Top + Leggings + Scarf Kevin Sweeney Mixed textures prevent an all-black look from feeling dull: Here, it's faux leather and feathers. Add color—and stay toasty!—by reusing the oversized scarf from look one. 04 of 06 Dress + Boots Kevin Sweeney The perfect uniform for an indulgent meal? A casual dress with a stretchy waistband, paired with the walkable boots from look two for your post-dinner stroll. Shiny accessories keep things festive. 05 of 06 Dress + Sweater Kevin Sweeney The fancy dress from the last look gets another wear in a less formal outfit when you add your relaxed sweater and comfy laced shoes. Be sure to let the collar and bow peek through. 06 of 06 Top + Jeans + Boots Kevin Sweeney Match up the comfortable jeans you packed with a feathery top for a flattering combo that still looks sharp in family photos. Pair the look with a clutch that converts to a crossbody. Voilà—it's now a daytime bag. Was this page helpful? Thanks for your feedback! Tell us why! Other Submit
