This post is sponsored by Gap and LTK. As always, all thoughts and opinions are my own.
Choosing what to wear to a holiday party can sometimes be overwhelming. You want your outfit to be lovely, but honestly, it can be expensive to get dressed up for one or two times a year. Plus, you may not can wear your holiday outfit beyond the holidays. If you need a holiday party outfit and you need it to be affordable, this post is for you! Iโm partnering with with Gap to share the outfit I’ll be wearing to holiday parties this year. The best part is…it is SUPER affordable and versatile!
See the Instagram Reel video of the outfit at the bottom of this post!
For size reference, my height is 5โ9โณ and I weigh approximately 170 lbs., have an hourglass figure and I am mid-size. For tops, I typically wear a size Medium (10) or Large (12), depending on the brand and fit of the top (for slim-fit, I usually wear a Large). For bottoms, my normal size is a 12 (depending on the brand and fit of the bottom) OR a 31 waist; a 10-inch high rise fits my waist the best and a 28 inch inseam falls at my ankle, 30 inch inseam is full-length on me. My shoe size is 9 medium or 40EU.
Gap has lots of styles for the whole family to choose from in The Party Shop. Their holiday styles are affordable and accessible with pieces in an array of colors, combining quality and budget-friendly prices. If you need to dress the whole family for holiday photos, be sure to shop everyone’s outfits in The Party Shop!
Here are my tips on how to wear an all black holiday party outfit:
- Wear different textures – mix up the textures in your outfit by wearing velvet, suede, wool, lace, etc. By wearing different textures in your outfit, you will give your outfit dimension so you can see the pieces individually.
- Add jewelry – jewelry can provide โcolorโ to your all-black outfit. Gold, silver and rose gold all look great with black. Choose jewelry with accent pieces that take your outfit up a notch, like diamonds and pearls.
- Wear bold lipstick and/or nail polish – Red or pink lipstick in a bold color will also add a bit of color.
I’m wearing the V-Neck Velvet Jumpsuit in “black” (size Large, Regular) and it fits perfectly. This jumpsuit is made with 100% recycled polyester and is machine washable! The fabric is so soft and cozy and honestly it feels like you are wearing pajamas! The jumpsuit is a simple and elegant style that you will wear year after year. It also comes in Tall and Petite sizes.
Since the Belted Double-Faced Wool Coat in “black” (size Large, Regular) and Classic Pumps in “black” (size 9, fits true to size) are classic and timeless styles, you can wear them on repeat with different outfits. I look forward to wearing these pumps to church and other events through the year. You’ll be seeing me wear this coat from now through winter with other outfits. It provides warmth, is lightweight and I love the simple belt closure.

These Classic Pumps in “black” (size 9, fits true to size) are a classic and timeless style with an elegant look. They are made with a smooth faux-suede upper and lightly padded insole.
