Sleigh the Season: The Carbon Closet’s Christmas Day Style Guide

Christmas day: The day we all get dressed up to sit around the living room and eat too much- We wouldn’t have it any other way!

Although we recommend having a rifle through your wardrobe for any clothes you already own (and have probably forgotten about), we understand that a special outfit is needed for a special day. This is why The Carbon Closet has pulled together a festive and friendly guide for your perfect Christmas Day outfit, maybe even cover your New Year’s outfit whilst you’re at it!

Kicking the list off with these gorgeous Red Velvet Boots from Bloom Paris. Could these boots scream “Christmas” any louder? Made from both recycled and plant-based fibres, they are sure to keep you classy, cozy and conscious this Christmas, whatever your plans!

What a stunning Halter Neck Dress we have here from Labeca London! The Carbon Closet loves this festive red with an open back and festive bow- and it’s made from breathable linen; delivering you elegance and eco in one glamorous gown!

We didn’t forget about you party animals! And our guide also wouldn’t be complete without a classic LBD! Here is Baukjen’s Zandra dress made with Lenzing EcoVero- an innovative and sustainable alternative to Viscose! Keeping you eco and chic as you party your way into the New Year.

A touch of green for your festive look: These are Omnes’ Samara wide leg trousers, perfect to be dressed up or down depending on your seasonal setting! The Carbon Closet loves the versatility that can go from candycane in winter to Perky pinstripes in summer!

If you are heading out on Christmas day (even if it’s just from your living room to someone else’s), you’ll be needing the right coat! Noize has just what you’re looking for: a Vegan Wool-look Long line coat to keep you sustainably snug this season.

Slowing things down with Passenger: These Fleece Slippers are made from recycled polyester—perfect for those who want to put their feet up and enjoy a more calm approach this Christmas, or to slip into once the festive chaos has passed.

Whilst Pineapples may not be a typical Christmassy fruit, this bag made from Pineapple-Leather certainly is! Themoire has a range of stunning bags like these, each made from bio-based material and in shimmery silver and gold to complete your look this Christmas!

We're not done with the glam yet- in fact we don't think you can ever have enough. For those looking to add some more sparkle to their festive fit this year, look no further than these Recycled Glitter Heels by Bikkou. The perfect heel for you to step into Christmas sustainably

Why not look like the gift itself this year? This Ivy Satin Mini Dress by Aligne is exactly that, and made from recycled polyester- as if it wasn't admirable enough already! In a perfect The-Grinch green, you'll be stealing hearts and not presents this year!

Just looking for some finishing touches to tie the fit together? No problem! The Carbon Closet has an extensive range of accessories to choose from, like this Matt & Natt Vegan Leather Belt. We love the double pin detailing on the buckle- perfect for adjusting right after dinner!

Continuing with the finishing touches, how about a festive hair-piece? Identity Lingerie created a collection of scrunchies made from upcycled materials, just like this Burgundy one! This could even make the ideal stocking filler gift if you're running late this year!

Expecting to spend some on Christmas Day? At least do it with sustainability and style! This Small Vegan Bifold Wallet by LaBante can hold a lot more than you might think. It makes the perfect addition to any bag- all year round, and what could possible be more festive than red and gold?

For those seeking a more casual look, we have a suitable pair of jeans! Fanfare has used a blend of organic cotton and recycled materials to craft these beautiful Mom-Fit Jeans. Despite being a 3D printed leaf design, we think it's also giving 'Snowflake'. What do you think?

Heels not your thing? We recommend Bohema for your perfect shoe then! These Vegan Mary-Jane Pumps are made from Grape Leather! So be it for a more low-key approach, or pack these to slip into at the end of the night, you won't be compromising on comfort or style with a fun, silver Mary Jane.

Although not your typical Christmas jumper, this Organic Cotton Pullover by Armed Angels features all the right colours! Enjoy the ethical comfort of this jumper from your living room, or make sure to pack it to throw on over your dress at the end of the Christmas party!

Do not be mistaken- this is actually a bag and not a stunning Christmas decoration! What a superb piece to carry around on the special day! Alkeme Atelier's Water Moon Bag is crafted from a quality vegan leather and comes in multiple colours (the yellow version was even featured in the Wicked movie!)

This Vanille Blazer made from reycycled polyester by Zadig & Volitaire will undoubtedly be the centre-piece of your party! We think an all-black outfit will be the perfect chic option to layer under this statement piece, or even pair with earlier's Bikkou glitter heels for all the sparkles!

If you'd prefer to have your jewellery be the focal point of your outfit, Claire Hill is the perfect recycled silver option! This beautiful North Star Necklace will take pride and centre of your holiday outfit. The brand even has some matching earrings to add that little extra pizzazz!

For anybody in need of a new pair of classic Christmas socks, The Ethical Superstore has just the thing. Made from soft, organic cotton, these Juggling Santa Christmas Socks come in an adorable, recyclable cracker. These would also make an excellent gift! What's not to love?

Finishing off with another classic. A Kimono-Sleeve White Shirt from Toteme will sit perfectly under a blazer, or even to dress up a Christmas jumper. This shirt in particular is made from a mix of organic cotton and bio-based material lyocell. A stylish, sustainable solution.

We hope this guide has inspired your conscious Christmas look!
