Holiday season is officially here, and for some, that means getting dressed up for fancy holiday parties. While we usually think of dresses or skirts when it comes to women’s formalwear, there are definitely lots of super-chic holiday party outfit ideas that aren’t dresses or skirts — think Yves Saint Laurent’s Le Smoking, or the many examples of female celebrities who have worn suits, tuxes, jumpsuits, or rompers on the red carpet.

So, whether you’re looking to switch things up a little, or dresses and skirts just aren’t your thing, let the four looks I’ve styled below be your inspiration to really make a statement this season!

If you’re looking to step away from dresses and skirts but don’t want to full-on commit, then a jumpsuit or romper is the perfect place to start.

I’m a fan of this sleek strapless black jumpsuit, because, like a LBD, it can be worn so many different ways; it is also flattering on a wide range of body types. Here, I’ve styled it with a statement necklace that’s sure to make people do a double take!

Red heeled sandals are a perfect way to amp up the style factor, while a black quilted velvet bag with a cool pearl-and-black-beaded chain-strap is an unexpected alternative to a standard black clutch.

Lastly, paint your nails a moody dark purple shade, and swipe on lipstick in a bold shade of red that matches the sandals for the perfect way to finish off this ultra-fashionable look.
