What to Wear for Every Holiday Occasion

This is my 5th guest post with Shecky's.com. You can see the post on their website here.
1. Shopping
What's one activity you're likely to do a lot during the holidays? Shopping! You definitely want to be comfortable, but that's no reason to leave style at home. Thrown on a unique graphic tee or layer on a colorful sweater and get ready to shop till you drop.

2. Traveling
Traveling is another situation where comfort is key. Pick some pants that are comfortable to sit in, boots that are easy to walk in and always dress in layers to adjust to changing climates. An army jacket is comfy but stylish and a poncho sweater is by far the easiest type of layer to slip off!
