If I could describe the holiday season in one word, it would be cozy. While there are always several holiday occasions to dress up for, things are certainly looking a little different this year. As a result, I’ve been stocking up on casual, cozy pieces instead of the usual cocktail dresses and jumpsuits. I’ve been doing so much shopping at Express lately because I can’t get enough of their affordable yet chic pieces that really highlight feminine style. They’re not only great for wearing throughout the week, but can be transformed into low-key holiday outfits. With most pieces on sale for 40-50% off right now, there really isn’t a better time to shop. Below, I wanted to share some of my favorite cozy pieces that are on-trend and fit for most holiday occasions.

Versatile Cozy Sweaters

During the colder months, I live for plush, cozy sweaters that I can wear more than once. I’m loving the different options at Express, which range from voluminous sleeve knitwear to more fitted styles that have a feminine edge to them. They’re great for mixing with denim or more tailored pieces just in time for all the festivities.

Stretchy Bottoms

I’m definitely a denim kind of girl, especially when I’m staying in with family or friends. That’s why I’m absolutely in love with Express’ new Luxe Comfort Knit denim. They’re made to look like denim but feel like sweats, which is a dream come true when temperatures are freezing outside. It comes in three versatile colors although I prefer the black because you can wear it to work and on the weekends. If I’m not wearing denim, you’ll likely find me in these faux leather leggings.

Loungewear Separates

Chic loungewear separates are another great outfit idea for the holidays because they’re stylish while prioritizing comfort. Express’ new collection includes several joggers and sets that are adorned with sequins and metallic finishes, which feel really luxe for any social gathering.

Knit Accessories

Finally, I always love adding knit accessories to my holiday outfits. They’re such a smart way to bundle up and look cute at the same time. This pom pom scarf is a playful way to spruce up a simple sweater. One of my winter style tips for looking extra chic while layered up is going for a tonal look. A beige sweater with a beige scarf screams cozy chic.
