Christmas is one of the most fun and magical times of the year. All the gifts, Christmas trees, festive spirit, and quality time with family and friends are more than enough to make anyone wish the holidays lasted forever. 

Sadly, holidays don’t last forever. But memories do, and if you play your cards right, you can create some of the most wonderful Christmas memories this year. Start with the basics: dressing right! And to that end, here are a few tips and ideas for Christmas outfits.

Christmas is the perfect excuse to go all out on luxury frocks and dresses, especially for your little princess. Delicate lace and velvet are particularly popular and they are just what you need if you are going for that innocent, angelic, elegant look. 

We all know about red and green, but what other Christmas colors can you work with? Here Are A Few Ideas:

• All white: Minimalist, elegant, and simple: make it an all-white Christmas!
• White and red: Chic, fresh, and festive; perfect for photos! 
• Black and red: An unconventional choice that works really well
• Pink and green: Fantastical color combination that stimulates the imagination
• Ombre: Dressing in outfits that come in tones of a color that gradually shade into each other from light to dark is a charming and original idea
• Rainbow: A surprisingly festive color scheme that’s flamboyant and guaranteed to stand out.  

Since Christmas is one of the coldest times of the year, it is important to make sure that whatever your little ones put on is warm and comfy. Consider dressing them in layers: 

• A base moisture wicking layer of polyester or silk
• A middle insulation layer that can be a sweater, fleece, or sweatshirt
• An outer layer that is designed to block the wind, rain, or snow

Get sparkly with pearl bracelets, glitter clutches, and bedazzled bags. For little ones, headbands are a great way to make them look even cuter! 

Complete your outfits with Santa hats. That bright pop of red will stand out, and you won’t even have to think about a bad hair day. Scarves will also jazz up your entire look while also keeping you warm and cozy all day. 

To coordinate your outfits the right way, start with colors that work well together. Choose a color scheme that works instead of having every family member wear the same outfit. This will allow you to get a more natural look across the board. 

Need we say more? This is probably the only area where you can fully embrace matching outfits without everything feeling corny. 

Since your pet is a part of your family, why not pick out a festive outfit for them as well? Besides, pets in costumes make ridiculously cute photo ops!
