Hello gorgeous! Today I’m going to share how to wear red and green in one outfit for the holidays and not have you look like a watermelon;). This outfit is SUPER easy to style and requires you to know three pieces of styling #knowledge.
Let’s get started!
SAY NO TO COLOR BLOCKING
99% of the time color blocking is chic, trendy, and looks amazing! With this particular outfit, however, you really want to stay away from color blocking. The reason is because these colors are super bold and can appear harsh when styled together for color blocking.
PICK A PATTERN
For this outfit you want to pick a color (red or green) that will have a pattern on it. The reason for this is because it prevents color blocking and breaks up the boldness of either the red or green hue.
I choose a green plaid top encompassing multiple colors and really exudes a winter feel!
THE PERFECT SHOES
To pick the perfect pair of shoes for this look you want to stay away from any other bold colors other than red and green. These colors are the focal point in this outfit and you don’t want to take any attention away from this.
I recommend wearing a shoe with a pop of red, like I did for this post, since pops of red are perfect for the holidays! If this isn’t your style a pair of nude shoes would work perfectly!

Julianna, you look so beautiful, as always! I adore the plaid shirt paired with the skirt, which is perfect for the holiday season; I agree with your tip on not color blocking with red and green. Too bold and not in a good way!
I hope you’re having a wonderful start to your week so far, beauty!

Such a great idea to avoid bold color blocking by adding a plaid shirt with hints of the colors you were going for. The silhouette of that skirt and its color are stunning. Such a great holiday look and overall style inspiration. Thank you for sharing and have a wonderful week ahead, Julianna!
