16 Outfits That Prove You Can Wear Pants for Every Holiday Occasion

When it comes to holiday dressing, my fellow editors often discuss which dresses they have their eyes on. I, on the other hand, quickly jump in with all the pants I'm considering. If you're like me, you pretty much live in some form of pants, with nary a dress or skirt in sight. I've only worn pants to weddings and even wore a bridal jumpsuit to my own nuptials. Thankfully, the past few years have brought about some great styles that fit right in for all sorts of festivities.

There are a couple of outfits with pants that I'm considering wearing throughout the holidays. One idea for an effortless ensemble is to pair a white blouse with black pants, making sure that either the shirt or the pants have an interesting detail. Another alternative is to throw on a going-out top with metallic detailing and styling it with a more straightforward style like slim leather pants. As for how to complete these outfits, any of these options go great with oversize earrings, a sleek mini bag, and statement boots.

I rounded up some of the most inspiring pant outfits from my Instagram favorites that are perfect for your small holiday gatherings. From minimalist styling to outstanding head-turning looks, I found a little something to fit just about every personal style.

Style Tip: If you're looking for an easy ensemble that's as comfortable as it is chic, wear a pajama-inspired set.
Style Tip: Swap out your standard blazer for a tailored vest instead, and style it with cool printed pants.
Style Tip: You can never go wrong with a monochromatic ensemble. To give it more visual interest, experiment with details such as draping or pleats.
Style Tip: If you want to wear a bolder look, style a sheer blouse with a pair of bright-colored pants.
Style Tip: When in doubt, you can always wear a statement top with black trousers.
Style Tip: If you want a cozier ensemble, pair printed trousers with a polished sweater.
Style Tip: Don't be afraid to mix and match graphic prints for a jaw-dropping look.
Style Tip: A deep, chocolate-brown outfit is a fresh alternative to classic black. Wear the shade in various prints for a cool ensemble.
Style Tip: You can never go wrong with a classic snake-print blouse and black trousers.
Style Tip: On the other hand, if you want to wear a bright color, go for a silk button-down shirt with skinny pants.
Style Tip: Have a cool going-out top you've been itching to wear? Pair it with tailored trousers for an instantly polished outfit.
Style Tip: A color-blocked look is a fun (and a little bit unexpected) cocktail party outfit. Add a chunky necklace to finish it off.
Style Tip: Just in case you're feeling slightly more casual, style your trousers with a fitted turtleneck top and a moto jacket.
Style Tip: Chic wide-leg pants will always dress an ensemble up.
Style Tip: If you need a look you can put together in minutes, let it be a silk camisole with classic trousers.
Style Tip: Sport a timeless pussy-bow blouse with tapered trousers and statement heels for a look that's polished and versatile.

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
