Easter, the first day of school, and Christmas are all examples of days in which a new outfit is required! With Christmas only days away, it isn’t too late to run out amongst the last of the holiday shoppers and find a little something small for yourself!
And to get those shopping juices flowing, I have collected my most favorite holiday outfits from the past two centuries.

The holiday trims on both these white dresses give wonderful contrast.
1810
Burgundy fabric with puffy white trim says dancing at Christmas like nothing else!

I adore the gold gown with the black tassels. What an easy and unique way to add details to sleeves.

Add a lovely wool cape and you are all set to walk into town for afternoon tea.
1840
The shoulder details on both of these gowns add such elegance and femininity.

Whether for holiday shopping or for writing Christmas cards, either of these outfits will do splendidly!

Christmas Ball anyone?
That red swiss waist is stunning!

Hosting a holiday party? What a perfect hostess gown!
1880
A lovely blend of red and green.

Velvet trim on a gown? I say, yes please!
Pretty spectacular! Sleeves would be a little tricky to maneuver in, but who caress when you are wearing this ensemble!

Two great examples of outdoor holiday wear for you and the kiddos!

A trio of gowns in lovely shades of holiday green!

Again, gold for a holiday gown is pure magic!

Plaid is a perfect choice for an evening look.

A cheery, cardinal red coat is perfect for those last minute trips before Christmas!
Happy Wardrobe Planning!
