Our thoughts frequently turn to cold-weather essentials like toasty turtlenecks, scarves, and denim when discussing winter trends. But as night falls and our social calendars come alive with seemingly unending holiday parties and dates, casual outfits are not an option. The joy of the occasion gives us an opportunity to turn on the glam and experiment with the newest holiday fashion trends. The most popular after-hours trends this year will turn heads. There is no doubt that these fashions have a celebratory feel, whether it’s fun colours like bright pink and lime or glamorous accessories. We understand that not everyone wants to wear an extravagant holiday outfit, and that’s absolutely fine. Instead of wearing a sequin dress, consider fun jewellery, shiny handbags, or heels with glittery accents.ClapClap Tip: You can easily mix and match the trends depending on how much you want to amp up the glamour factor this year.

1. Skirt Sets

 
Try a sleek skirt set for your next party if you want to ditch your party dress for a new look but still adhere to the holiday dress code. Play with different lengths like mini, midi, or maxi. Opt for designs that are trending. Like pleats, embroidery, feather trims, or sheer fabrics for extra oomph.

2. Fun Pants

A lot of designers are focusing on bottoms lately. Try a pair of “fun pants” for the holiday season, such as embroidered denim, or silky trousers, or pair them with feather trim. Style them with a sequinned bralette or a blazer to match.

3. Embellishment
