WHICH IS YOUR STYLE, CHIC AND DRESSY OR CASUAL AND COZY
Because some people will be traditionally celebrating the holidays and some people might be having a quiet holiday at home, I wanted to show you two ways to dress this holiday season. Plus, as an added bonus, I want to show you how versatile these outfits are and some of the different ways to wear them.
This post is sponsored by Chico’s, and I will receive compensation, but the opinions expressed are my own.
I know a lot of you might be me celebrating the Christmas holiday in a smaller setting. I won’t be attending any holiday parties or gatherings, and I will be dressing for comfort since my celebration will be more casual than in the past. But that doesn’t mean that I don’t want to look nice.
Today, the 14th is the last day to place an online order in time to receive it for Christmas, so be sure to get your orders placed soon. And, Chico’s is having a 50% off your purchase sale (some exclusions apply) and FREE shipping with the code 77179.
This cotton-cashmere blend outfit from Chico’s is not head to toe Christmas themed. Instead, this is so incredibly soft and cozy, and this is completely Tania themed. I will wear my Tania themed outfit much more than I would a Christmas themed one.
You know that I love animal print, and I am especially drawn to this muted tiger print hoodie. This hoodie combines the best of sporty and luxurious, and it also manages to be fashionable and stylish. Yay! This is a winner in my book!!! You can bet that I will be wearing this incredibly soft and thick hoodie all winter long. This top contains just enough cashmere to feel amazing against your skin. I am wearing a size 1 in this, and it fits great. For an oversized look, I would recommend sizing up one size.
I was trying to capture how thick and luxurious the top was, but it was impossible. This is one time that you will have to take my word for it, but at least you can get an up-close look at the print.
You will want to wear these joggers every single day! Joggers are a hot fashion item right now and so stylish that you can even dress them up with heels if you choose. I love how chic looking these joggers are, but I am wearing them for comfort if I am honest. I want something that feels amazing against my skin, and this super-soft jogger delivers. It checks so many boxes for me like comfort ✔️, style ✔️, softness ✔️, washable ✔️, pockets ✔️, length ✔️, and versatility ✔️! I ordered a size 1 in these joggers, and I Iove the way that they fit. The drawstring waistband will let me decide how much I can eat of the delicious Christmas feast.
Some of you might still dress up for Christmas this year. You don’t have to be attending a party to want to look special this Christmas. A dress like this will have you looking CHIC every time you wear it, and it is one that can be worn all year long. I love this Ponte knit dress’s relaxed style, and I am a huge fan of pockets on a dress!!! The button details on the cuff add a unique detail. And, look below for another unexpected detail.
This dress is stunning coming and going since the back v-neck creates interest as you leave a room. I think the dress is figure-flattering and helps to create curves and an eye-pleasing silhouette. It got a big thumbs up from my husband, and I think yours would approve also. I am wearing a size 1 in the dress, and you can see that I still have plenty of room.
Adding this Wrinkle-Free Travelers Jacket to the dress looks amazing. I love the dress’s look all by itself, but the addition of this jacket makes the entire outfit so stylish and polished looking. The jacket’s animal print and patchwork design are perfect, and the bright pop of red against the black and white background is stunning. I am wearing a size 1 in the jacket, and it fits me perfectly.
Even though I LOVE the colors, print, and style of the jacket, what sold me on it was the Wrinkle-Free and Washable features. I love stylish clothing, but I also want practical fashion that I can wear without constantly ironing or looking for a dry-cleaner. Did you notice my red rhinestone earrings? These are actually part of a set that also includes a gorgeous pair of studs.
If the Travelers jacket is too dressy for you, or maybe you need something that will keep you warmer, then this tweed tonal red coat is for you. I love the different shades of red that comprise the tonal color of the coat. The length is perfect for wearing the coat with a dress, and it is a great length for leggings and jeans also. This coat is gorgeous and has a classic cut and style, but I love that it also looks modern and relevant for today’s styles.
Here is a look at the coat’s lining, and doesn’t it look amazing with this dress??? I am wearing a size 1 in the coat, and I love the look and fit.
I wanted to show you this unique fringed cocoon ruana that I also got. This is perfect for those days when you want a lightweight sweater and don’t need a heavy jacket or coat. I am showing it to you today with a linen-blend v-neck tee, but I have a turtleneck ordered, and I can’t wait to show you how great it will look with this ruana.

I love the cozy outfit and will be ordering it today! Merry Christmas Tania!
I can’t wait to hear how you like it, Joan.
I will probably wear something casual this year… but I love the red dress and coat! Thanks for the beautiful options.
I will probably be casual on Christmas day, but I can wear this beautiful red outfit any time of the year.
It will be a casual Christmas here as well but that red dress is so tempting! I wonder what the hubs would say if I dressed up while cooking dinner! Anticipating a relaxed holiday I bought red and white striped jogger style pajama bottoms with a red velour top. Chico’s has always been one of my favorite stores! You style their items beautifully!
The thing that I love about that dress is that it can be worn at any time of the year.
Beautiful outfits, every one of them. I’m a big Chico’s fan…and shopper 😉
Thanks, Kathryn. I love Chico’s too!
I love these outfits!! You look especially fabulous in the red dress with the traveler’s jacket. I’ve got to buy that outfit plus the joggers. GREAT choices from my very favorite store!
Belinda, you will love the dress and jacket. I love that the jacket doesn’t wrinkle, and the joggers are so comfortable.
Love all these outfits, especially the cozy comfortable ones.
I’ve worn that outfit three times since I got it. I also ordered the matching tiger print pants.
You look so great in all of the outfits. I love the red dress, especially the back at the neckline. Chicos clothes are always so gorgeous.
Chico’s has fantastic clothing and a great selection. This red dress is sooo pretty.
That dress is fabulous and looks great on you. I love dresses with pockets also. They are hard to find. The casual outfit looks nice also.
I love this dress too! It is very flattering and can be worn all year long.

Merry Christmas to you, Judy!
As of Dec. 8th in Alberta, Canada all social gatherings indoor or outdoor are prohibited. You are allowed to celebrate Christmas with those living in your household. Seeing as how it is only my husband and I, Christmas will be very casual….I may be wearing pyjamas. Lol.
Christmas will probably be very casual in my household also. I love the casual option that is still very fashionable.
