The holiday season is upon us, and with it comes the excitement of revamping your wardrobe for all those festive gatherings and soirées. On Day 7 of the 12 Days of CHRISelle, I’m thrilled to share a collection of three stunning holiday looks that won’t break the bank—all for $60 or less per piece. This collaboration with the WhoWhatWear Collection at Target has truly elevated holiday fashion by merging trendsetting style with affordability, making it easy for everyone to shine during the festivities.
A Smart Investment in Festive Fashion
As the season intensifies, many of us find ourselves on a shopping spree, hunting for those perfect pieces that can effortlessly take us from day to night. While I never hesitate to splurge on statement accessories like chic shoes and eye-catching bags, when it comes to clothes and trendy separates, budget-friendly options that still make a bold impact are the way to go. This year’s WhoWhatWear Collection nails all the holiday trends—from dazzling metallics and festive colors to classic tailoring—ensuring you look fabulous without overspending.
Look 1: Radiant and Ready in Gold
Imagine stepping into a holiday party wearing a dress that exudes both glamour and effortless charm. That’s exactly what you get with this gorgeous gold dress from the collection. Its fluid drape and adjustable tie detail in the front create a flattering silhouette that works for any body type. The shimmering metallic finish is perfect for festive events, and if you prefer something more versatile, the dress is also available in black for everyday wear. Priced at just $30, it proves that you don’t have to sacrifice style for budget. To complete the look, I paired the dress with a pair of adorable red booties that not only add a pop of color but also offer the comfort and versatility to transition from casual days to sparkling nights.
Look 2: Playful Polka-Dots with a Luxe Twist
For a more whimsical take on holiday fashion, consider the lightweight polka dot dress—a piece that’s both playful and refined. This breezy dress becomes even more flattering when belted to accentuate your waist, giving it structure and a graceful flow that makes it a timeless addition to your wardrobe. I styled it with a classic blazer and a pair of burgundy boots, perfect for those chilly winter days. The ensemble is further elevated with a unique velvet structured bag that resembles a chic jewelry box, adding a subtle touch of luxe that’s ideal not only for your outfit but also as a thoughtful gift for someone special. This look is proof that you can mix casual charm with a sophisticated edge without splurging.
Look 3: Monochrome Magic in Emerald
There’s something undeniably powerful about a monochrome outfit, and this emerald green suit does just that. Whether you wear the matching pieces together or mix and match them with other items in your wardrobe, this suit makes a bold statement. Its deep, rich hue is perfectly suited for the holiday season, infusing your look with an air of sophistication and confidence. Both the blazer and pants are priced under $50, which means you can invest in a versatile, high-impact wardrobe staple without emptying your wallet. To add a touch of softness and warmth to the look, I accessorized with a fun faux sheepskin purse adorned with a delicate bow—a playful yet polished detail that completes the ensemble beautifully.
Giving Back and Spreading the Cheer
