While runways and high street are the things fashion fantasies are made of, I am most inspired by street fashion and personal style. If you need some inspiration for no fail holiday outfits, take a look at these ten easy to recreate styles featuring monochromatic basics, plaid, and pops of red from Lookbook.nu:

The proportion play keeps it comfy and the accessories make it holiday party ready. Oh, and these fab boots just went on sale at Zara for $69.99.

The stripes, the dots, the tartan and the docs. The socks as a statement piece? Too good.

A short black sequined dress with a bun and a red lip: classic, playful Christmas party wear.

A red lip and red bag gives this menswear inspired look a feminine touch.

The structured hat, the collar of jewels, the crisp shirt and fierce heels make this sweatshirt anything but sloppy.

This vintage Ralph Lauren tartan blazer peeking out from beneath the peacoat is everything.

All black everything plus a pony, a red coat and a red bag: so Hepburn simple chic.

Mixing patterns like ikat and plaid in similar colors atop muted cream and camel textural neutrals oozes pure winter coziness.

The juxtaposition of the feminine pencil skirt with the punk earwear and menswear brogues is so London lovely.

Chunky knit sweater + sleek all black + red everything else = holiday pretty perfection.

Which holiday look is your favorite?
