Finding something to wear over Christmas is always a struggle

If you're like me, you'll want to grab the biggest and baggiest thing in your wardrobe to protect you from the ice-cold air.

With the Christmas season comes lots of celebrations, parties, and reasons to dress up.

Using some local fashion stores, I've put together some outfits that might inspire your Festive Fashion outfit choices.

Outfit 1 - The Green Dress

This is the perfect outfit for a Christmas or New Year's Party!

The long sleeves mean you have that added bit of extra warmth, while the stars on the earrings add a bit more of a festive feeling.

Green Dress- Katie Fitz Boutique, €80.

Earrings - Indi, €44.99

Shoes -  The Shoe Centre, €49.95

This outfit puts the sparkle back into your life!

It's perfect if you want to be the star of the show.

Dress - Muse, €300

Shoes - Paul Bryon, €50

Earrings - Muse, €70

Outfit 3 - Christmas Trees or Ships?

One for the men this time!

This navy shirt has passed the Christmas check.

Let's hope nobody looks toooo closely or they'll see these aren't trees, but boats!

I reckon nobody would notice though...

Shirt - Fitz U, €71 

Pants - River Island, at City Square Shopping Centre, €33

Outfit 4 - The Angel Baby

Amidst the hustle and bustle of Christmas, we must remember those who are most excited - the kids!

This gorgeous outfit makes your baby look like a little angel, even if they are wreaking havoc following a sugar rush.

Dress - Dunnes, at City Square Shopping Centre €15

Bows - Indi, €12.99 

Boots - Paul Bryon, at Dungarvan Shopping Centre, €30

Outfit 5 - Christmas Jumpers for the whole family

All three jumpers pictured above are available in sizes suited for everyone in the family.

For those who get dressed on Christmas day, why not have the whole family matching?

Dinosaur jumper -  Dunnes, €6 - €7

Grey jumper - Dunnes, €15

Reindeer jumper - Dunnes, €15

Outfit 6 - Silky Season

This silky green top is so versatile it could be used at any time of year.

So, why not pair it with some black sequins and make it as Christmassy as possible?

Top - Orchid Boutique, €165 

Skirt - Katie Fitz Boutique, €50 

Outfit 7 - Fan of Fluff?

Whether or not brown and navy go well together was open for debate in the office, but I've decided they work.

This outfit avoids the traditional Christmas colours of red and green, but the fleese jacket makes it wonderful Winter attire.

Jacket- River Island, €119

Pants - Fitz U, €79

Shoes - Paul Bryon, €47

Outfit 8 - Little Black Coat

Unfortunately, this red dress does not come with all the trimmings.

Adding some spice to your Christmas celebrations is exactly what this dress will do, especially once paired with some tights and this black fur coat.

Matched with some black or red little boots, this outfit would be complete.

Dress - The Vintage Factory, €22

Jacket - Orchid Boutique, €218

Outfit 9- The Red Jumper

Another for the boys and men.

This red jumper creates a simple but stylish look this year.

Jumper - River Island, €25

Pants - River Island, €33

Outfit 10 - Ruffles of Red

Red, red, and, more red!

Santa will be happy seeing little girls dressed in his favourite colour while opening up their Christmas gifts.

Dress - Dunnes, €15

Boots - Paul Bryon, €50

Bows - Indi, €12.99 

Outfit 11- The Sea of Sequins

If sequins and sparkles are your thing, this is the outfit for you!

Again, these aren't the traditional Christmas colours, but this skirt was too fab to resist.

It could even make for the perfect New Year's Eve outfit, guaranteeing you a midnight kiss.

Top - Muse, €249

Skirt - River Island, €65

Shoes- Paul Bryon, €60 

Outfit 12 - Special Memories

For those of you who will be making very special, 'First Christmas' memories this year.

This romper is simple, super cute, and snuggly.

It can be found in Indi and purchased for €24.99.

Outfit 13- Velvet Lovers Assemble

These green velvet pants  may not be for eveyrone.

In fact, if you really aren't feeling them, they might be reminding you of your Granny's spare bedroom curtains.

I, on the other hand, think they are very suave.

Top - TRM Clothing, €49.95

Pants - River Island, €26

Outfit 14- The Cosy Canine

Last but certainly not least is a dog jumper for all of our favourite furry friends.

Get your pet involved in the Family Christmas Jumper photo this year.

Look how proud this guy looks in his cool new outfit.

Let your dog feel the same.

Dunnes, €12.
