Or how to be the classiest looking guy at the office Christmas party
All Christmas parties are not created equal and require different types of dress and levels of formality. You’ve got casual get-togethers with friends, dinner with the family and, of course, the office Christmas party.
In a world where you’ll generally see a simple shirt, tie, blazer and slacks combination or the ever- (and very played out) ironic ugly Christmas sweater, there’s ample room to make a classy statement.
Here’s an outfit that’s an elegant and sophisticated take on Christmas party attire.

If you plan to wear a suit, swap the shirt and tie for a turtleneck. It’s an unexpected and elegant move. From a color standpoint, keep it tonal. Grey suit, charcoal grey or black turtleneck.
Add a lightweight silk scarf for added interest and the perfect seasonal accent. Remember, as always, that scarves can be both aesthetic and practical. You’re going for the former here with our best friend this winter, the “indoor scarf”.
The holidays are a great time to trot out the oxblood shoes. Another great way to add a subtle, seasonal sartorial touch to anchor your outfit.
Thanks for reading.
Stylishly Yours,
