With that said, Let’s get into some Wicked looks! (get it? Because of the green??)
Green Velvet Dresses
My favourite Christmas green velvet dress choices;
Velvet is the ultimate holiday fabric, it’s luxurious, warm, and perfect for winter. A green velvet dress combines both elegance and coziness, making it a stunning choice for Christmas events.
Here’s a few other ideas for you to rock this look…
Mini Dress: A green velvet mini dress with puffed sleeves or a wrap style is playful yet chic. Pair it with black tights, heeled ankle boots, or even knee-high boots for a glamorous look.
Maxi Dress: For a formal event, a green velvet maxi dress in a deep emerald shade exudes elegance. Add gold jewelry and nude or black heels to complete the look.
Top tip: Balance out the richness of velvet with simple accessories. Velvet already makes a statement, so a minimal necklace or earrings will keep the focus on the dress.
Cozy Green Sweaters
My favourite Christmas green sweater choices;
For a more casual gathering, a green sweater is cozy, cute, and perfect for a relaxed holiday vibe. Here are a few ideas for you to get started;
Chunky Knit Sweater: Pair a chunky green sweater with high-waisted jeans or a plaid skirt for a comfortable but stylish outfit. Opt for rich green shades like forest green for a warm and earthy look.
Turtleneck: A green turtleneck with tailored pants or an A-line skirt is both chic and comfortable. Add boots or loafers for a touch of sophistication.
Top tip: For added holiday cheer, go for a sweater with a bit of shimmer or sequins, or even choose one with subtle holiday patterns like snowflakes or fair isle designs.
Green Plaid Outfits
My favourite green plaid Christmas choices;
Plaid is practically synonymous with Christmas, and adding green to the mix keeps things festive and timeless.
It gives that kind of hallmark movie moment which I’m all about. Think;
Plaid Skirts: A green plaid skirt paired with a white or red top (or even a cozy turtleneck) makes a classic holiday look. Knee-high boots add warmth and style.
Plaid Blazers: Layer a green plaid blazer over a simple dress or jeans and a turtleneck for a polished yet festive look.
Top tip: Pair green plaid with solid colors to avoid clashing prints. Black, white, and red make great base colors for a balanced look.
Green Jumpsuits
If you’re looking for something different than the usual dress, a green jumpsuit is a trendy and versatile option.
Formal Jumpsuit: Choose a green jumpsuit with tailored lines or one with a cinched waist to create a sleek silhouette. Heels and a statement belt make this a perfect outfit for a dressier occasion.
Casual Jumpsuit: A more relaxed green jumpsuit in a soft fabric can be paired with a cardigan or cropped jacket. Add sneakers or ankle boots for a laid-back but stylish holiday outfit.
The best sparkly green pieces ever;
Nothing says holiday celebration like a bit of sparkle! Green sequins are perfect for adding glam to your Christmas outfit. To boil down my above recommendations, think;
Sequin Dresses: A green sequin dress in a mini or midi length is ideal for a Christmas party.
It catches the light and keeps the holiday spirit high. Pair with neutral or metallic heels to let the dress shine.
Sequin Tops: Pair a green sequin top with black skinny jeans or leather pants for a fun party look. A simple clutch and subtle jewelry keep the look sophisticated.
Top tip: If the sequin top is very bold, opt for understated bottoms to keep the look balanced. Black, white, or denim works well.
Green Skirt with Holiday Accessories
A green skirt is a versatile piece that can be styled in so many ways to create festive outfits.
Pencil Skirt: A green pencil skirt with a tucked-in blouse or fitted sweater gives a polished look perfect for family dinners or work holiday parties. Pair with heels for a chic finish.
Tulle or Pleated Skirt: For a more whimsical look, a green tulle or pleated skirt creates a charming, romantic outfit. Wear it with a fitted top or knit sweater and ballet flats for an adorable look.
Top tip: Accessorize with holiday-themed jewelry like sparkly earrings or even a headband with festive embellishments.
Best Skirt options;
Green and Gold Combinations
Green and gold are a classic pairing for the holiday season, bringing elegance to any outfit.
Green Dress with Gold Accessories: A green dress paired with gold heels, jewelry, and a gold clutch creates a rich, festive look. Gold accents add warmth and luxury.
Gold Sweater with Green Pants: Reverse the look with a gold top and green pants or skirt for a unique twist. Finish with neutral or metallic shoes.
Top tip: Gold-toned makeup (like shimmery eyeshadow) can enhance this outfit combination beautifully, tying in the color scheme from head to toe.
Green and White Outfits
For a softer, wintery look, green and white together give off a crisp, fresh holiday vibe.
Green Sweater and White Jeans: A cozy green sweater with white jeans or leggings makes a festive yet casual outfit for relaxed gatherings.
Green Dress with White Accessories: A green dress paired with a white scarf, white shoes, or a white coat feels sophisticated and fresh.
Top tip: Consider adding small touches like pearl earrings or a white clutch to keep the outfit light and wintery.
Green Outerwear
If you want to keep your holiday style simple, let your coat or jacket be the statement piece with green outerwear.
Green Peacoat: A green peacoat is classic and stylish, perfect for layering over any outfit. It works beautifully with winter neutrals, red, and white.
Puffer Jacket: A green puffer jacket is a cozy yet chic choice, especially for outdoor gatherings. Pair it with black leggings or jeans for a stylish and comfortable look.
Top tip: For an extra festive touch, add a scarf or gloves in red or plaid to balance out the green coat.
Accessorize with Green
If you prefer subtle holiday vibes, try adding green accessories to your outfit.
Green Scarf: A green scarf over a neutral outfit gives a pop of color while keeping you warm and cozy.
Green Shoes: Opt for green heels or flats to add a festive touch to any outfit.
Green Jewelry: Emerald earrings or a green statement necklace can bring a touch of holiday spirit to a simpler outfit.
Top tip: When adding green accessories, keep the rest of the outfit neutral to let the green pop.
