Red and green are the colours that are popularly associated with Christmas. Office Christmas parties, house parties, and more, chances are you will be asked to wear something in red or green. So, if you have a host of parties to attend, make sure that you have at least a coat or a dress in these colours. Apart from red and green, the colour black is also associated with Christmas. In case you do not wish to don only one single colour you can mix and match clothes that have these colours. You can also keep it subtle and yet chic by mixing and matching these classic Christmas colours with any other neutral colour.

Plaided shirts, pants, and skirts are classics that can be worn all year long. But, they are also associated with cozy and warm Christmas looks. Plaided shirts, skirts or pants are usually available in colour combinations such as white and red, black and red, and green and black. You can purchase one of these pieces of clothing and team them up with tops and pants in colours like white and black. For example, if you are wearing a plaided pair of pants, you can combine it with a black turtleneck or a sweater. You can opt to wear heels or shoes depending on the fit of your pants. If you are planning to wear a plaided skirt in colours such as black and red, then team it up with a black top or sweater and complete the look by wearing a pair of stockings and boots.
