Casual Christmas Outfit Inspiration

December 23, 2019

Are you looking for a casual Christmas outfit this year? Although the holiday season can give you an excuse to put on a super sparkly dress or sequin mini skirt, there are also times when you desire feeling comfortable and casual. Today I am sharing casual Christmas outfit inspiration for those laid back get-togethers. My version of a casual Christmas outfit includes a red plaid mini, over the knee boots, and a soft long sleeve top. This outfit looks super cute for any upcoming Christmas plans this week that you may have on your busy schedule. Do you have a night out with friends planned to drive by Christmas lights? Are you preparing a dinner meal for your family on Christmas Eve? I think this outfit looks fashionable and on theme for both of those Christmas occasions!

Keep reading to find out where you can snag this adorable and festive plaid mini for under $30.

While browsing through Hollister looking for some outerwear pieces for the winter, I came across this plaid mini skort in my size! Luckily I grabbed the last medium and took it home with me to style for a future Christmas blog post. The skort rang up under $30 to my surprise, too. There’s nothing I love more than finding out something I want to buy is on sale or marked down! If the weather was colder, I would have swapped out my smocked blouse for a white eyelash sweater for this Christmas outfit inspiration look. If the weather where you live will be cold for Christmas you can also add a couple of necessary layers to this look and put on some black opaque tights and a trendy coat to warm up. My Christmas Eve and Christmas Day plans will include a bit of casual attire (think sweaters + jeans + boots) with a pop of silver sequins depending on what tops I find today while out shopping some last-minute deals. I am on the hunt for the right sequin top or sequin skirt to wear myself if I feel up to wearing a more glam outfit this year. If I do not find the right sequin top or skirt, I am definitely reaching back for this red plaid mini! The plaid mini is “high rise” so I suggest keeping that in mind when figuring out the correct sizing if you have a long torso. I was able to pull off a medium which is my usual skirt size. I wore this look with a pair of gray over-the-knee boots and I found so many affordable Amazon versions of my expensive pair for you to shop! I seriously can’t believe how many OTK boots are available on Amazon ($28.00) when I ended up spending nearly $170 on mine. Yikes!
