Why choose between partywear and pyjamas when you can have both? From elegant pieces that sparkle to loungewear that feels as good as it looks, these comfy-chic picks will keep you stylish and cosy all through the festive season.


The holiday season is here, and while it’s the most wonderful time of the year, figuring out what to wear between Christmas and the new year can be a challenge. 

For some, the festive period isn’t complete without sequin sparkles and sky-high party heels, but for others, the highlight of the season is kicking back in pyjamas and matching slippers.

But why choose between comfort and style when you can have both? This is where the comfy-chic trend comes in. If you want to add a touch of festive sparkle without sacrificing comfort, it’s all about finding that perfect balance. 

Choose elevated loungewear, such as a luxurious cashmere co-ord set or a chic embellished cardigan, that can be dressed up or down to fit any festive plan. These pieces let you feel cosy and special; after all, Twixmas only comes once a year.

Wide-leg trousers will be your best friend all day long, especially fluffy trimmed ones or soft knitted styles like Laura’s below. They’re easy to wear, and when you’re standing over a hot stove cooking the brussels sprouts, minimal effort is exactly what you need.

Keep scrolling to see Stylist’s round-up of the best comfy-chic fashion picks to wear this holiday season. Whether you’re looking for a festive outfit, a winter wardrobe staple or pyjamas you won’t mind being photographed in, we’ve got you covered.
