After I posted outfit ideas for fall family photos I received many requests for ideas for holiday photos as well. I put together a few classic holiday options that would no only work for photos but holiday celebrations as well!

Holiday Family Photo Outfits
My Sizing: I’m 4’10”, and my bust, waist, and hip measurements are 32″, 24″, and 36″. My inseam is 25″ (the measurement from the inside of my leg to my ankle bone). The clothes shown are unaltered and show how they fit me right from the store. I list my sizing beside each item to help you compare when shopping online. When referencing my true size, that is often the smallest option available at a brand or petite xxs/00/24. I wear a size 5 shoe.
Holiday Plaid Dress
This plaid dress from J.Crew Factory is one of their signature styles they release in different prints throughout the year. It’s a great fit all around and it has pockets! I think it works well for warm areas and with a coat, but I do wish it had sleeves. I find it to be true-to-size, but find it to be a close fit at the chest. If that is a fit issue area for you, I would size up.

The red coat I’m wearing here is from J.Crew’s collection last year. Although not exact the Savoy topcoat is very similar in fit and style. I have the Savoy coat in black on in the next outfit so you can see the fit. The main difference between the two is the buttons, the Savoy coat has more buttons.

Tartan Skirt
I have had this tartan skirt for years! J.Crew Factory brings it back season after season. It’s a versatile piece you can wear all through the season. It doesn’t come in petite but I think it’s a great length. In my true size (00) it fits me well through the hips, but is a little loose at the waist (I have 36″ hips and a 24″ waist for reference). If you have the option to size down you may find a better fit in a size down. Depending on the setting of the photos or event the coat may or may not work, but I picture it in an outdoor photo setting!

Tartan Top
I chose a classic tartan top and a black swing skirt for this outfit. I went with tights and heels, but you could go with boots or red heels instead! The skirt is a budget-friendly find from Old Navy. It fits true-to-size and also comes in red.
