Have you started partying yet? Well I hope we all have at least one chance during the coming weeks to put on the ritz a little and step out in style. If you don’t have anything in particular on your calendar, create something! I think it’s always fun just to treat yourself to a nice dinner out. So you could certainly wear one of these chic holiday looks from Kohl’s for those understated but festive outings.

I’ve shared several other holiday outfit inspiration posts this season, but I thought it would be nice to put together outfits from Kohl’s that have just a subtle hint of festive things to come. Plus, I wanted you to see how you might could use these items separately, not just in the outfits I’ve put together.
You can certainly wear faux leather pants now and into the warmer months. But I do think they elevate an outfit to special occasion appropriate. These Vera Wang tapered faux leather pants feel so comfortable, but they also look classy and elevated. You can pair them with this sparkly v-neck tank and a blazer for a party-ready look. Everything I’m showing today fits true to size.
You can add some sparkly shoes like these Nine West rhinestone high heels or wear some classic black or nude pumps or flats.
I completed this an the other looks with simulated crystal hoop earrings, a silver tone stretch bracelet and velveteen kiss-lock closure crossbody bag, adding a pop of color in a sophisticated hue. The crossbody bag also comes in a pretty blue and old rose.
I think these tapered faux leather pants look really snazzy in a holiday ensemble like this with a little bling. But just in case I have readers who prefer a more subtle outfit for holiday outings and gatherings, I also styled the pants with a simple but chic camel colored ribbed top.
In a different color this ribbed top would look more casual, but camel always translates a little elevated. So this pairing works beautifully for an office party or other low key but festive occasion.
I do think it may have been nice to add a pretty black necklace to this outfit.
For my next outfit I shifted gears and changed from the tapered faux leather pants to soft black Levi’s straight leg jeans. The jeans do come in other washes and fit true to size. The only caveat is that they are very long. Keep in mind that I’m 5’8″.
If you like to wear jeans to your holiday parties, black is always a great choice. Because these are so long they might would look better with black suede booties. Other than swapping out the tapered faux leather pants for the Levi’s straight leg jeans, this outfit is the same as the one at the top of the post. But to me they read very differently because of those pants choices.
The sparkly v-neck tank is such a smart addition to a wardrobe because it will be quite versatile. It feels very comfortable on, and works beautifully under my black Nine West blazer. Unfortunately the sparkly v-neck tank is only available in limited sizes at this point. But I’ve included similar options in the shopping widget below, such as this ruffle trim halter top, this sequin cowlneck top, and this shimmery smocked top.
Which combination do you like the best? Where would you wear the outfit combination you prefer?

Blessed for My Day
By the time Jesus was born into this world in a humble stable, people had been desperately looking for and awaiting a savior for hundreds of years. In fact, many people had undoubtedly lost hope and felt like God had abandoned them. Oppression was real, life was hard and God had been silent. The world must have felt dark and scary and forsaken.
Some days that is exactly how I would describe the world we live in. It seems that not a day goes by that I don’t see or read something that absolutely appalls me. Wickedness seems to prevail, perversion has been lauded as normal and the world seems to be spiraling down. Can you relate? But the good news of Christmas is that “when the fullness of time had come, God sent forth His Son…” And when the fullness of time comes again, the Father will send Him forth yet again. Amen.
But when the fullness of time had come, God sent forth his Son, born of woman, born under the law, to redeem those who were under the law, so that we might receive adoption as sons. ~ Galatians 4:4-5
Cute outfits. You look so cute!
Yes, I know what you mean. The world seems to be spiraling down and so many perverse things are happening.know God is watching and will be helping his people soon. Have a blessed day
Thanks so much for sharing, Sherry. We absolutely must keep our faith strong right now.
You look lovely in the Kohl’s holiday pieces! Those faux leather pants look great!
They really are great pants. Thanks for sharing, Paulette.
Thanks for your more reasonably priced outfits today. I like the outfit with the longer pants. That pink pocketbook is adorable. Have a great day.
I’m so glad you liked the outfit and enjoyed the post, Rory. Thanks for letting me know. Always helpful. ❤️
Your BFMD was very encouraging; thank you so much for that. We hear enough discouraging things in the news daily.
I am having spinal fusion surgery next Monday and the last Kohl’s post was just what I needed for my recovery period—the Ugg Koolaburra sweater set was perfect. Since I like to “get dressed for my day”, I am not one to spend the day in my pajamas, so I snapped that set up! Thank you so much!
Oh I’m so glad that worked for you. My husband had spinal fusion surgery about five years ago exactly and he is doing so much better now. He had had four laminectomy and discectomy surgeries before that wishes he’d had the fusion earlier. I hope and pray for your surgery to go well and for your recovery to be smooth. Bless you! I’m sorry you’ve been living with pain.
My favorite outfit is the one with the jeans. So appreciate the BFMD message. “When the fullness of time comes again…”. What blessed hope!
Thanks so much for sharing, Beth. I’m glad the devotional thought spoke to you. ❤️
Love these outfits on you, Kay. So festive with a casual vibe. Thank you for everything you do in helping us to sparkle a little more fashionably.
I agree we’re spiraling with so much of the perverse taking center stage. However, I believe in this season of miracles and it’s hope that humankind will rise above. Let’s pray the Christmas Star will guide us all with it’s glory. This fashionista believes⭐🌠💫
Absolutely. Thanks so much for sharing, Helena. We must continue to trust that God is in control. 🥰
I don’t post much. With my new schedule it’s late in the day for reading my Email.
Just wanted to say your blog is wonderful. So informative in keeping us up to date with tasteful style. Your addition of all price points is very thoughtful.
The black pants with the camel sweater are perfect for my taste. The shoes are beautiful. Dressy shoes are a problem for me since it’s so cold in MI. If the destination has valet parking or I go with someone who can drop me off near the door its okay. House get-togethers are usually casual.
Thanks!
I agree about shoes. I struggle wearing open shoes like these on cold days, too. Thanks so much for sharing and for your kind words. 😊
Kay, All of the outfits are so nice and you look great in them! Kohl’s really is a great place to shop for the family.
Thanks so much Ginger. I’ve really enjoyed shopping Kohl’s for years, too.
You look beautiful in the faux letter pants and heels! I enjoy your posts!
Thank you Tami. 😊
Can you tell me what size the Vera Wang Leather pants are? I didn’t see sizes on anything in today’s blog post?
I want to order the whole outfit.
Thanks so much!
I got the medium. They run true to size.
