What To Wear To Every Holiday Party — No Matter The Dress Code

You want to know how I know the holidays are right around the corner? My calendar is suddenly packed solid. Between White Elephant gift exchanges, office parties, happy hours, and family get-togethers, I’m lucky if I get a night free to myself until February. There are just too many people to see, and way too many parties to get dressed for. My closet? She’s worn out, babes.

But Abercrombie is here to save you from your holiday party outfit fatigue. Their site and stores are stocked with so much sparkling goodness, it might *actually* get you excited for your full slate of parties this season. So whether you’re trying to figure out what to wear to your stuffy office party or planning to make your situationship remember exactly what they’re missing on New Year’s Eve, Abercrombie’s got you covered. Scroll on to see what to wear to every kind of party — no matter the dress code.

The Holiday Party At Your Stuffy Corporate Office

Just because you need to be HR-appropriate doesn’t mean you can’t still slay while chatting up the office hottie in accounts. A sleek sweater dress with a little peek-a-book detail will do the trick. Pair it with some boots and a show-stopping white fur coat, and you’ll be office-appropriate while still looking sick enough for the off-site after-party.

The White Elephant Party At Your BFF’s Place

I live for a cozy party at home, because it’s the perfect time to break out a coordinating set. This satin slip feels like pjs, but paired with a lacy top, it’s perfect for partying. A cardigan tied around your shoulders keeps you warm, and a pair of mesh flats are like elevated slippers.

The Big Family Dinner At Your Aunt’s House

Getting dressed for family is like a riddle — you want to look cute enough so mom doesn’t tell you that you look sloppy, but not so over-the-top that grandma gives you the side-eye. An off-the-shoulder sweater paired with a sparkling skirt is the answer. Toss on some booties for height (and comfort) and you’ll be ready for all the annoying questions around the table.

The New Year’s Eve Blowout Where Your Situationship Will Definitely Be

Why just dance under a disco ball when you can look like one, too? A sparkling mini is the only thing to wear to ring in the New Year, and will ensure that all eyes will stay on you. Pair it with a dramatic faux fur coat. It’s equal parts naughty and nice, just like you.
