Ugly Christmas sweater or the skimpy little black dress: you should definitely avoid these styling mishaps this holiday season.
Christmas is just around the corner and of course we like to dress up for the occasion. The outfit can then sparkle like the Christmas tree. An elegant satin or glitter skirt with a casual knitted sweater creates a great mix of styles.
Clothing in winter colors, such as cream tones or the classic green and red combination, are also popular during the holidays. We definitely have no shortage of styling ideas.
And the shops also offer just enough potential to spice up your wardrobe for Christmas and New Year's Eve. But what should I actually pay attention to so that I not only feel stylish but also feel comfortable in my holiday look? We got to the bottom of the typical styling mistakes at Christmas.
#1 Clothes that are too tight
I'm telling you: We make this one mistake every year! Because when it comes to our outfit, we actually only make sure that it suits us and highlights our advantages. But what we forget: There's a lot of feasting at Christmas. Therefore, the outfit should still fit well and be comfortable even after the feast.

So when you put it on, ask yourself: Does the look offer enough “room” for Christmas roast and dessert? Clothing that is not tight around the waist and is too tight is your must-have. For example, it is optimal B. an elegant knitted dress that adapts to the figure. An alternative is pants with stretch that don't restrict your stomach.

#2 Don't pay attention to the temperature
Dressing up for Christmas is not that easy. It's freezing cold outside and inside it usually gets really warm when you're feasting on raclette and the like. So if you want to go for a walk before or after Christmas dinner, you need a look that can handle the temperature differences.
An outfit with an onion look is simply best suited for this. So you build your suit in several layers and can gradually take them off in the warm room if you feel like it.
Here is our idea for a cozy Christmas look:
#3 No accessories
Do you always put a lot of effort into combining individual items of clothing and then forget about the accessories? At least that's how I feel, especially when I'm under time pressure. But it's the accessories that complete your look and make it special.
You can find festive statement jewelry here:
The advantage: Even a simple combination of knitted sweater and trousers immediately gets a festive twist with eye-catching glitter earrings or other jewelry. So that you don't forget your special accessories when styling for Christmas, it's best to get them ready the evening before.
