The Specific Accessories I Swear By to Make Basics Look Festive at Holiday Parties
You don't need an entirely new outfit for every holiday party. Just pair your basics with any (or many) of these 27 holiday accessories.

The holiday season is around the corner, and personally, I don't want to have to buy an entirely new wardrobe full of velvet tops and sequin dresses just because a few parties show up on my schedule. I'd much rather keep on wearing the clothes I already love, which is usually a T-shirt or sweater with jeans or trousers, and leave the "festive" part to my accessories. You'd be surprised what a cool scarf and a great pair of earrings can do to a plain white tee and vintage Levi's. Add a fun pair of shoes and a clutch and suddenly, an outfit worth celebrating appears—no party dresses necessary.
Ahead, shop my hand-curated holiday accessories guide for 2026, full of jewelry, watches, handbags, shoes, and more, all of which are capable of turning even the simplest of outfits into the perfect look for every Friendsgiving, work cocktail, and New Year's Eve soirée on your social calendar. Think Prada's reissued Dalmatian-print loafers, Chanel's just-dropped red croc flap bag, and a giant Dorsey cocktail ring. Compliments will be flowing as generously as the champagne—I promise.
