8 Ways to Stay Comfortable Yet Elegant At Christmas Dinner
By: Abby Fulmar
No matter who you are with or how you are spending Christmas day, it always helps to feel elegant and comfortable. It can sometimes seem difficult to put together an outfit that will help you feel confident but also provide some comfort as you indulge on Christmas day. Here are a few beauty and fashion tips that could help you enjoy the holiday a bit more.
1. Midi Skirts
Midi skirts are a perfect way to feel elegant and comfortable at the same time. Unlike short skirts that ride up when you sit down, midi skirts provide enough coverage for you to move around and sit comfortably without worrying about a wardrobe malfunction. They can be dressed up or down and are perfect for colder weather. No matter how you style a midi skirt, it is guaranteed to elevate your outfit.
2. A Bold Lip
A bold lip is a classic for the holiday season. It takes minimal effort but can completely change how you look and feel. A red lip can be paired with both natural makeup and full glam. It is a great, simple way to feel festive and classy for your Christmas get-together.
3. Leg Warmers
While they might take a little more time to style, leg warmers can conform to many different styles and add a little something extra to any outfit. They can be paired with anything from mini skirts to leggings and can give a normal outfit a cozy, winter vibe.
4. Layering
Layering is very popular in every season, but it is especially useful during the winter months. It is hard to go wrong with layering and there are many different combinations of outfits you can make even if you have a limited amount of items. Pop a puffer vest over a turtleneck or hoodie or elevate your mini skirt with stockings and leg warmers. Prioritizing layering makes it easy to feel comfortable and cozy while also looking fashionable and unique.
5. Gold Jewelry
Nothing says chic more than gold jewelry. No matter what the rest of your outfit looks like, putting on a pair of gold hoops immediately creates a sophisticated, put-together aura.
6. Ear Muffs
Much like the leg warmer trend, ear muffs have recently become a fashion staple due to the rise of Scandi style. Just like scarves and beanies, ear muffs can keep you warm while also being a fashion statement. You can wear them on your head or around your neck; either way they will definitely add a layer of comfort and elegance to your Christmas dinner outfit.
7. Claw Clips
If you do not feel like doing an extravagant hairdo for Christmas day, a claw clip is an ideal solution. A claw clip brings a minimalistic but classy vibe to any outfit. There are many different types, but the best for the holiday season is a delicate gold clip. It takes little to no time to twist your hair into a claw clip so it is a perfect way to achieve a cute hairstyle even during the chaos of Christmas day.
8. A Statement Belt
Tired of feeling uncomfortable in your holiday outfit after having a tasty Christmas meal? An accessory such as an adjustable belt can tie an outfit together and make a statement, but also give you a way to stay comfy.
