Lets kickstart this with what I think will be the trend of the season. A plaid skirt paired with long sleeves. That could be a jumper, sweatshirt or just a cute long sleeved top.

This holiday season, elevate your festive fashion with the perfect pairing of plaid skirts and cozy jumpers. Embracing the timeless charm of plaid, these cute Christmas outfits effortlessly blend comfort and style. The classic combination of a plaid skirt and a snug jumper creates a look that is both festive and chic, ensuring you stand out at any holiday gathering.

Whether you opt for a traditional red and green plaid or experiment with a more contemporary color palette, this versatile ensemble allows you to showcase your personal style while staying cozy and cute throughout the Christmas festivities. So, dive into the season with a dash of plaid and a sprinkle of holiday joy, creating the perfect cute Christmas outfits that will have you radiating warmth and style all season long.

The combination of those 2 items of clothing create such an adorable look. Truth be told it works well in any season, so to keep it winter chic, I’d stick to clothing that have winter tones, blue and white or reds.

The Skirts

for the skirts, I find mini high waisted to be the most stylish for this adorable look.

Nothing quite screams Christmas outfit like wool. I recommend checking this one out, the photo is “coffee” but it also comes in “red wine” which looks amazing for Christmas and green.

If you’re going for a more vibrant top such as red or green, I’d recommend an earthy tone for the skirt.

You’ll notice a lot of these looks that work well, pair the outfit with tights and over the knee boots.

It’s a small detail but really turns this from tennis chic, to cute Christmas. So try it out with the tights and boots.

The Tops

Baggy or body hugging it’s completely up to you. For a strong winter look I’d recommend a high neck such as a turtleneck. Here are a few of my favourite recommendations.

All of which come in multiple colors including black, white, green, and red. So whatever look you want, you have options with these.

For that cosy “I’m staying in to get some photos next to the Christmas tree” look, you can’t go wrong with a leather look legging (which is very in at the moment) and festive jumper look.

This is also the first time we’re actually mentioning Christmas jumpers. No they are not tacky, yes they are cute.

So dust of your Christmas jumper, throw on some leather look leggings and get ready for a cuteness overload.

Bonus points if you pair this outfit with a Christmas beanie hat and socks.

#4 Christmas Dungarees

Remember in the first section when we were talking about pleated skirts and long sleeves? Well this is very similar but instead of the mini skirt we’re going with dungarees skirts.

The look encapsulates cuteness and when paired with neck covering tops and the colors of Christmas, what you get is the ultimate cute Christmas outfit you can wear all winter long.

I would shop this look very similar to the first look on this list. Over the knee boots, tights, the same long sleeve tops then instead of the recommended skirts, go for one of these…

That’s also a great look to pair with some thick over the knee socks and boots.
