The Under-$50 Holiday Outfits Our Staffers Are Wearing Right Now

Holiday party season is officially upon us, everyone, and chances are you have a zillion events filling up your calendar. Not least of all is your office's holiday party, which is always a tricky occasion to dress for since you want to look festive and all done up but still keep things professional. If you find yourself looking for ways to balance both, you've come to the right place.

Last week, we hosted our annual office holiday party for our L.A.-based staffers—and, true to form, their stylish outfits did not disappoint. Dressed in the new December pieces from our Who What Wear collection, each employee below is wearing the affordable pieces that your wardrobe was probably craving this time of year. So instead of serving you outfit ideas you could potentially wear, we went right ahead and documented the outfits our team actually wore to our own party.

From beautiful satin dresses to standout zebra-print pieces, get inspired by the chic and festive outfits our very own staffers wore to WWW's holiday party, and shop their looks so you can dress the part for all the events on your calendar, too.

When in doubt, wear color. Red is always an excellent choice as it's eye-catching and festive. Go for either our midi skirt or midi dress, which are both pictured above to ensure the look is office-approved.

A sweaterdress is one of the coziest things you opt for. Cinch it up with a waist belt to add some dimension per Judith.

As we've shown you before, satin pieces photograph beautifully, so you definitely won't regret wearing them to any party with a photo op. Here, Kristen wears our zebra-printed Silky Cropped Trousers.

I went for our animal-print minidress because the '80s-inspired puff sleeves feel so party-ready.

We're big fans of zebra print over here, can you tell? Kristine's version is our sweater dress which she effortlessly styled with black ankle boots.

Another big trend we're backing for holiday occasions is suiting. Carly's silky animal print set is a standout outfit from our December collection and definitely a personal favorite in our office.

One spotted mini dress, three ways. Pair it with of-the-moment knee boots, layer it with tights and platforms or worn with simple sandals—the styling possibilities are endless.
