The holiday season is my favourite time of year: I listen to Christmas music almost exclusively starting the day after Thanksgiving, and I make it my mission to admire all of the homes with extravagant, over-the-top decorations in my neighbourhood.

When it comes to holiday dressing, though, I go for a less obvious approach. My vibe is festive and fun but not too over-the-top: think a classic cable-knit top rather than tacky Christmas sweaters. That's why I was thrilled to discover these tie-waist trousers ($40). The deep-plum colour makes them feel special enough to wear to holiday drinks or a family party but isn't quite as obvious as the traditional red-and-green look.

Plus, these pants look great with everything from a sleek bodysuit and sneakers to a glitzy top and heeled boots. I'm tempted to snap them up in a few other colours, too — the emerald green is calling my name. Keep scrolling to check out all five colours.
