NewsWhen we need fashion inspiration, TikTok is always our first port of call. With the holidays right around the corner, we’re all getting our wardrobe ready for days of ice skating, present wrapping, and meeting up with friends. With all these events to go to, it’s easy to be overwhelmed by what to wear.
We couldn’t believe our luck when we came across @_iheikens’ video on TikTok that broke down different occasions over the holiday season, complete with outfit ideas. Whether it’s going to your partners home or sipping a festive drink in a café, Isabelle has an outfit idea for everything.
Read on to find out our thoughts on the outfit ideas in their TikTok and how you can recreate them at home with pieces that you already have in your closet. This festive season let’s have fun with our looks and try something new as we come together to celebrate the most magical time of the year.
The festive season is one time of year when you’re guaranteed to have to visit your partner’s family. It might be their parents, or second cousins once removed. You never know which family members you might be meeting for the first time, so you want to dress to impress.
We love the outfit that Isabelle pulled together for this idea, which screams ‘90s Princess Diana. Start with a simple knitwear sweater dress and add a jewel-tone dress coat that adds a pop of colour to your outfit. Tights help you layer up and add a ladylike feel to your outfit. Keep your jewelry minimalistic and add a mini bag to carry your essentials.
What do you wear when you’re putting up the Christmas stockings? You want something that is comfortable and casual, but that will still look chic in your family holiday photos. You can never go wrong with baggy jeans and a button-up shirt. That’s exactly what Isabelle styles in your outfit for a vintage-inspired look with a contemporary twist.
When you’re decorating, avoid trousers that have a wide leg or that are too long for you. Heels are also a no-go for decorating as you want to stay as stable on your feet as possible.
Is there anything more stressful than wrapping Christmas presents? Whether you’re doing it early or leaving it to Christmas Eve, you want to wear something comfortable when wrapping Christmas presents. We love this casual look that is easy to put together with oversized sweater and high-waisted trousers.
What we love about this look is that it’s comfortable but put-together. You can easily run out to do errands or grab a coffee without feeling underdressed. Don’t forget to add a cosy pair of socks to help you stay warm against the festive season chill.
Ice skating is one of our favourite holiday season activities. Whether you’re good at skating or go for your annual Instagram photo, you need to create an ice-skating outfit that is all about layers. Isabelle’s look is a great starting point as it’s made of pieces you’ll probably already have in your closet.
Start with black denim jeans and layer with a long sleeve printed jumper and a sleeveless puffer vest. Don’t forget to keep warm with a cosy beanie and matching gloves. While we love ice skating, you want to make sure you dress warmly so that you don’t come away from the ice skating rink with more than you bargained for.
If there’s one thing that we love about the holiday season, it’s the festive drinks from our favourite cafes. Whether you’re sipping on a peppermint mocha or a toffee nut hot chocolate, you want to wear an outfit that is perfect for a day in a coffee shop – or last-minute Christmas shopping.
Isabelle’s suggested outfit is the perfect one to help you transition from fall to winter. Squint your eyes and it might even remind you of the coffee-loving Gilmore girls. This Y2K-inspired look features knee-high leather boots, a mini skirt, knitwear sweater, black oversized blazer, and a hobo tote bag. What makes the outfit pop is the oversized blanket scarf with its golden yellow hue.

Christmas is right around the corner. While we’re counting down the days, it’s not too late to get your hands on the must-have Christmas beauty gifts for 2021. Have you already finished your Christmas shopping? Lucky you! This list of Christmas beauty gifts ideas is also the perfect reference for what sets to look out for during the post-Christmas sale if you want to spend your holiday gift cards or treat yourself to new beauty products for 2022.
The holidays are coming! In between the Christmas shopping and food prep, it’s worth taking time to reflect on your social calendar. After last holiday season fell foul of the pandemic, we’re all ready to make up for lost time by making the most of this festive season. That means going to as many family get-togethers, cocktail parties, and Christmas dinners as we can fit into your Google Calendar!
The beauty of social media is that beauty trends can come out of nowhere, changing and adapting to our needs. This idea was never truer than when the pandemic hit, and beauty trends shifted from a full-face of makeup or a skincare-focused routine.

If your closet is in need of some inspiration, we’re rounding up 3 fashion trends that everyone is wearing on TikTok, including how you can incorporate them into your outfits for the perfect fall 2021 look.
