Boop: Stacked rings are the perfect way to add that extra sparkle to your holiday look. I love how you can mix and match diamond rings and other types of stones or fine jewelry pieces to create unique combinations for any occasion. The shimmer and shine of these stacked rings can instantly elevate any outfit and is the perfect way to feel and look festive during the season.

Perry Tabora
Perry: Big, shiny or metallic earrings are such an easy way to get into the holiday spirit. They make any outfit feel festive whether you’re going all out or just wearing a T-shirt and jeans. I love how they instantly add glamour. And if you’re in the mood to switch things up, you can wear just one for a cool look.
Shiny shoes are just so fun, and you don’t need a special occasion to wear them. They’re perfect for adding a little sparkle to any outfit, whether you’re dressing up for a party or keeping it casual. Plus, they’re not just for the holidays—you can keep wearing them all year to add a pop of shine to your everyday looks.
A scrunched-up bag is so effortless and cool. It’s perfect when all you need is your phone, lipstick, and maybe a card. I love how it adds a little texture to your outfit without being too much. And if you need more space, you can always go for an oversized clutch that still has that scrunched vibe but can hold a bit more.
Eldzs Mejia
Eldzs: These bags are so versatile that they can transition from casual to elevated. The slouchy structure of the bags give off a laid-back attitude but #IYKYK.
Em Millan
Em: I love the holidays for busting out show-stopping pieces one would be scared to try for other seasons. My favorite would be statement earrings or a stack of necklaces—most photos would be dinners or around the table, and accessorizing around the face would always add interest! My keywords would by chunky, bold, shiny, and sparkly!
Rain Dagala
Rain: A pop of red—whether it's a bag, earrings, or shoes—can add a festive touch to any outfit. Designers like Alaïa, Gucci, Valentino, and Isabel Marant have embraced this bold accent, showing how red can infuse energy and style in the smallest details.
Hobo bags made a major comeback this year, but with a modern twist—oversized and shapeless. Luxury labels like Ferragamo, Loewe, and Chloé fully embraced the trend, giving the classic slouchy silhouette a fresh, bold update. The new, larger designs blend effortless style with practicality, making them the perfect statement accessory for anyone looking for comfort without sacrificing flair.

Layering or wearing multiple rings is another fun way to play around with your looks this season. You can play around with a solid toned stack or do a mix metals stack to create more depth to your look.
