How to Style Holiday Fashion

The holidays, big and small, are a great opportunity for styling cute, festive outfits! Unfortunately, so many people in today's world have let their holiday outfits become cheap looking or sloppy, especially around holidays like St. Patrick's Day. Here at COL, we have created the ultimate guide to styling adorable St. Patrick's Day outfits that help to increase the holiday spirit without decreasing your fashion. 

GREEN GREEN GREEN: When attempting to style greens, there are so many possibilities! Balance their freshness with complementary colors like neutrals (beige, white, or black) for a classic look or earthy tones (browns and tans) for a natural feel. To really get into the St. Patrick's Day spirit, mix different shades of green for a monochrome, layered effect.

WINTER OR SPRING STYLE?: The beginning of March always begs the question, "do I wear spring or winter styles?". While it all ultimately depends on the climate in which you live, it is a general rule that we move toward spring colored and textured clothing towards the end of march. So, when considering what to wear during the St. Patty's Day season, opt for pairing greens with black or dark neutrals rather than white or other summer colors. 

GRAPHIC TEES: Graphic tees can be the CUTEST and most festive during the Holidays! Styling them can be a little more difficult in order to stay more trendy than sloppy. Pair your graphic tee with a pair of mom jeans and a belt or with a skirt for a fancier feel. If it's colder, style your graphic tee by tucking it into your bottoms and layering a black cardigan. 

SPARKLE BABY: Want to have a little fun? Finish your outfit with a sparkly pair of green earrings or fun boots! Even add a green colored belt or hairpiece to coordinate your outfit.

When styling outfits for the Holidays, it's important to remember to have fun while also keeping it classy and stylish.
