Our Holiday Family Photo Outfits: Cream Knits, Brown Cords and Olive Layers

Bri Weimar Leave a comment

I take a lot of time putting family-photo outfits together. And then I still need everyone to actually want to wear them. Those are two different jobs.

For this year’s outfits, I started with burgundy, cream, brown and hunter green, with denim as an option. That was the starting point, not a checklist where every person needed to wear every color.

Here are the pieces we picked for me, Mike, Tessa and Tatum.

My outfit: cream cable knit and brown corduroy cargos

I’m wearing the cream Abercrombie Airspun cable cardigan with my brown Pilcro Aero corduroy cargo pants. The cardigan has that chunky cable-knit texture, and the pants have the big cargo pockets.

My shoes are the brown Madden NYC faux suede lug sole clogs from Walmart.

The try-on matters as much as the outfit

With Tatum, I give him a lot of options for what he could wear. He tries things on, and we make sure he’s comfortable and feels like himself. I want the clothes to work for him, not just for the picture.

Tessa loves dressing up and being the center of attention. Tatum does not feel the same way about pictures. So putting everyone’s clothes together is not just about what looks good laid out next to each other.
