Sharyn GreensteinNo matter what your plans are for the upcoming holidays, dressing with intention can help us feel festive. If your family will be quietly celebrating, why not gift everyone matching tie-dye or camo joggers or buffalo plaid flannel shirts? Elevated lounge wear that can be worn while working out or snuggling up on the couch watching The Holiday or Love Actually would also make a great gift. If you plan early, you could ship to family who will be unable to celebrate with you in person this year, and then you could all wear coordinated outfits for your Zoom celebration. For those occasions when you want to look a bit more dressed up, a festive colorful top or dress might help you get in the holiday spirit.
Here are some festive looks to put you and your loved ones in the holiday mood this season. Many are half off for Black Friday, but the deals only last through this Friday or Saturday, depending on the retailer. I have included full prices and noted the discount in my descriptions. Shop early to take advantage of the deep discounts!
Dressed Up Looks
I ordered this beautiful top yesterday as I love the statement sleeves and petite sizing. Also available in regular sizing and in off white. Half off at Ann Taylor through 11/28.
Sweater dresses are very in right now. Look stylish with little effort in this red cable knit dress from Ann Taylor, half off through 11/28.
Madewell’s popular cashmere v-neck sweater is half off for Black Friday only. In 5 colors, but I am loving this apple red. A great deal.
From the sheer on-trend blouson sleeves to the flattering mock neck, this knit and woven top is feminine perfection. Also in soft pink. Half off at Ann Taylor through 11/28.
Chic meets comfy in this $59 Mongolian cashmere mockneck sweater from Quince. I have received two of my cashmere orders from this retailer, and am thrilled with their quality which is similar to much higher priced brands. This ginger color would be great for those that are fair skinned or who prefer a more orange-red shade.
This budget-friendly and easy-to-wear (meaning you can eat as much as you want) tunic top can be worn over leggings for a comfy look. From Nordstrom Rack.
Comfy Looks for her
Consider a matching set from Vuori to gift to yourself and your loved ones. Start with this everyday hoodie, a classic pullover hooded sweatshirt with a cropped length and drawstrings paired with the most comfortable and softest performance material.
I own these joggers in black and wear them constantly. The best-selling Performance Joggers from Vuori have a slim but relaxed fit with a slightly cropped leg, side pockets and a drawstring. Designed with their softest premium stretch fabric, you will never want to take them off and they are a fabulous gift. Great for petites, and also come in tall. In 8 colors.
From GAP, this women’s hoodie is in their Cloud Light fabric which is super soft. In 4 colors and half off through 11/28.
I have a previous season’s pair of these Gap Cloud Light Easy Joggers and they are still in heavy rotation. Half off through 11/28 and available in 3 colors.
Comfy Looks for Him
Also from Vuori, the men’s Ponto Crew pullover is made of their buttery-soft performance stretch knit that is quick drying and moisture wicking. There is a side zip stash pocket perfect for holding a key or card. Great for running, training, traveling, hiking and chilling. I bought this to match the pants for my son. In 4 colors.
I ordered these for my son and asked my husband to try them on for sizing yesterday. Now he wants them. From Vuori, the Ponto Pants feature a straight-leg modern fit and endless comfort. In 5 colors.
In 13 colors, this hoodie from GAP is half off through 11/28. Would be a perfect gift for twenty-somethings.
These GAP Vintage Soft men’s joggers come in 8 colors and would be a great gift for the men in your life. Added bonus – they are half off through 11/28.
Matching Looks for Him & Her
Everyone looks good in buffalo check red. Very on-trend this season. Half off at the GAP through 11/28.
Buffalo plaids are on-trend this season, and very festive looking in red. On promotion right now.
Instead of traditional matching pajamas, how about matching stylish tie-dye joggers with your favorite white tee? Mens sizing but would work well for women too. Half off at Old Navy only on Black Friday.
Black camo joggers would look great on the entire family. Pair them with your favorite black hoodie or tee. Half off at Old Navy only on Black Friday.
