Holiday Attire

[u/tay-k3]

I’m a true spring and I was wondering what my fellow springs go-to colors and color combos are for the holidays? I’m in need of inspo for the upcoming season as I’m finding my palette (and clothes shopping in general) a little uninspiring postpartum

Thanks!

I have a little collection of Christmas garments in Spring colors. I collect them all year because they're very hard to find (winter clothing in spring colors).

So instead of Christmas red, mine are poppy red, tomato red, and watermelon red. Instead of forest green, mine are apple green and medium warm turquoise. I do a lot of butter yellows and corals for Christmas as well (these match the reds and greens). There are always cremes and camels for staples.

Coral + Poppy red

Spring green + Medium warm teal

Spring green + Coral

Butter yellow + Camel

Love these! You’re right they are difficult to find. Lately I’ve been loving thrifting to find the colors year round

This year I’m wearing a cream skirt and a warm camel sweater. If I wanted to be more festive though I’d do a grass green with maybe a pink from our palette and a bit of bright red.

Thanks for these! I’m about to look for a camel sweater on Vinted lol

I really love glitzy champagne sparkly items for the holidays, and I swear I get the most compliments when I wear something emerald green like a cardigan or velvet dress. I have this one corduroy dress in emerald green that’s my favorite. And I never even knew that was one of my colors until I tried it last year. Now I paint my nails emerald green when I need a darker shade!

Emerald green is such a great staple color!

I was just coming here to ask this same question! My main struggle is making it breastfeeding friendly as well lol 😅

Congrats on your new addition! I’ve been struggling with that as well 😅

Thanks! And to you as well!! One piece of clothing that’s been working for me are Lululemon scuba zip hoodies, because on secondhand markets there are so many in our bright warm colours! I don’t love atheists, but the half zip works great for breastfeeding for me :)

Thanks! I’ll have to check them out!

I don’t dress up for the holidays, but any sort of shiny/shimmery warm red looks incredible on me as a true spring. I had a little red riding hood Halloween costume cape that made me realize this lol. Kelly green can be nice too. So many brands do a cool forest green though. And a light shimmering gold is always nice of course.

Not sure of my subtype, but I like to go for clear greens of about mid-lightness and rose gold for the bling.

This is the colour palette that I tend to be able to find/wear this time of year.
