I'm just going to say it: I'm not the biggest fan of getting dressed up for the holidays. Don't get me wrong—I love a moment to get decked out, but this year, I'm toning it down a bit. My approach to holiday dressing used to involve multiple festive looks such as black-tie dresses and pantsuits, but the older I get, the more I prefer ease and comfort over anything else.

This year, I'm embracing a more laid-back aesthetic, but make no mistake—it will still be chic. Target is one of my favorite places to go when I'm looking for elevated staples, and it definitely delivered this season. I've already added the gray fleece loungewear set to my cart, and I want to style the classic black lounge dress with an oversize cardigan and a pair of knitted knee-high socks.
