Hallmark holiday movies deserve to be celebrated year round. Am I the only one who has a countdown to Christmas no matter what month it is? Every year, my holiday tradition involves grabbing my favorite blanket and leaving the hot chocolate to simmer on the stove while I prepare to watch Hallmark holiday movie number five, six, seven.
It doesn’t matter that I’ve probably seen a similar plot play out with different characters, in another small town. I’m 100% invested and ready to be hit with holiday spirit.
The best part about watching Hallmark holiday movies is always the female lead’s gorgeous, Instagram worthy closet. From the sleek workwear to the laid back, trendy sweaters, every outfit looks so easy to copy.
My favorite Hallmark holiday movie of all time, “Mingle All the Way“, does not follow their prize plot formula (which makes it even better!), but it also doesn’t skimp out on the wardrobe. Singer and actress Jen Lilleyβwhose instagram is filled with a balance of raising awareness for issues she feels strongly about including homelessness and hunger, stunning magazine shoots, and sweet snapshots of her family lifeβbrings life to the boring, monotone work look we’re so used to seeing.
But don’t just stop at binge-watching Hallmark’s TV schedule. Here’s how you can bring holiday cheer from your favorite movies to your closet.
1. The “Workaholic Who Has No Time for Holidays” Business Casual Look

Welcome to Christmas | Hallmark Holiday Channel
The movie opens with the lead in an intense meeting with her boss, on the verge of a promotion or being fired. If it’s the former, she is sent to a new town on assignment or gets a phone call about a family emergency that forces her to take some time off and visit. If it’s the latter, she has no choice but to move back home for the holidays until she figures out her life.

Houndstooth Open Front Pantsuit, $69.99
2. The Not-so-Winter-Ready “I’ve Been Dropped Off in a New Town and I’m Out of My Element” Outfit

Every Christmas Has a Story | Hallmark Holiday Channel
You know the one. After spending hours traveling to a faraway town in the middle of nowhere, the lead usually steps out of the car in gorgeous designer clothes and ridiculously high heels or is under dressed for the cold weather. The contrast between her sleek outfit and that of the holiday obsessed, outgoing residents is hard to miss.

Solid Ruffle Sleeve Blouse, $16.97

Faux Shearling & Faux Suede Vest, $19.97
3. The Bright, Eye-Catching “Chance Meeting with an Old Flame or New Love Interest” Statement Piece

Mingle All the Way | Hallmark Holiday Channel
This is always the best part. Sparks fly when the big time lawyer or developer crosses paths with the local chef, or owner of the only bed and breakfast in town. Mingle All the Way takes a more unconventional but still fun approach to this trope. If you’re looking to make your own connections and first impression, you need to dress the part. This statement piece can come in the form of a dress, coat or even your handbag.

Mingle All the Way | Hallmark Holiday Channel

Double-Breasted Skirted Peacoat, $115.49
4. The “Family Business is Failing So I Need to Come Up With a Plan, STAT” Comfy-Casual Look

Christmas Land | Hallmark Holiday Channel
This is where the lead makes the slow transition from cold office worker, outsider to empathetic daughter, niece, neighbor. Instead of stiff pantsuits and stilettos, you’ll start to see a change in her closet under the influence of the town and the resident hottie.

Flecked Cowl Neck Sweater, $29.99

Brushed Chunky Check Scarf, $11.20

Mid-Rise Raw-Edge Rockstar Ankle Jeans for Women, $35

Cable Knit Beanie, $4.80
5. The “Cinderella Moment” Dress is Hallmark Holiday Movie Gold

A Majestic Christmas | Hallmark Holiday Channel
This moment doesn’t need any explanation.
6. The “I Finally Understand the True Meaning of Christmas (And Love) and Am Here for It” Sweater

Switched for Christmas | Hallmark Channel
Is it really a Hallmark holiday movie if someone (usually Candace Cameron Bure) isn’t rocking a cheery Christmas sweater underneath the mistletoe? This final addition to your closet will prepare you for a cozy, warm evening with your loved ones while your hot chocolate is cooling off and the movie cue is ready to go.

Bah Humpug Christmas Sweater, $18.19

December 6, 2018 at 11:51 amThis year I am all about the baggy Christmas jumpers and leggings due to being 38 weeks pregnant right now! But I am loving some of your style picks. I’ve never seen a Hallmark move, we usually just have Polar Express on the TV on repeat!

December 7, 2018 at 3:46 pmIt’s hard to believe, but I still have not watched a single Hallmark movie yet!! I love the idea of your post though, to dress like the Hallmark movies. Loved all of the outfits.

December 7, 2018 at 3:58 pmBeautiful and gorgeous outfits, I am a lover of red during festive season, but that green maxi dress also caught my eye. All the outfits are outstanding

December 7, 2018 at 4:07 pmChristmas will not force me to buy new clothes…maybe a fax fur jacket I’ve been eyeing and another pair of boots for my closet, but I prefer to layer and structure existing clothes. Add patterned tights to a dress or skirt, colourful shawl, gloves and muffler and you’re done.

December 12, 2018 at 2:18 pmI think my favorite outfit of them all is the Cinderella dress. Of course I just love dresses in general. I love your explanations for each look. Too funny!

January 11, 2020 at 7:10 amHi Cassandra… When I was watching a homecoming for the holidays, the lead who was a country singer, was wearing a blush or tan leather jacket with a Sherpa collar. I absolutely loved that coat! I have tried to find something similar online with no luck. Do you actually have access to the wardrobe? I would love to know who made it. She was also wearing it with a pale pink quilt like scarf. Again I would love that entire look for my daughter who commented on it.
Cassandra Rose
January 29, 2020 at 12:01 amI don’t have access to the wardrobe but spend a lot of time analyzing movie scenes and searching the web for exact matches or dupes. I’ll take a look around today!
Found! Laura Osnes’ (the lead actress) coat is Zara’s Double Face Biker Faux Shearling Jacket. She’s wearing the mink color, but the site lists the black one at the moment (which looks just as amazing!).
The scarf is from H&M and is called the Large Plaid Scarf in White/Beige.
Cassandra Rose
January 31, 2021 at 2:40 amHi Dana! Not sure if you ever saw my comment but both the coat and scarf from A Homecoming for the Holidays are still available!

Cassandra Rose
January 31, 2021 at 1:58 amFound! Danica McKellar’s cranberry belted coat is the Ted Baker βDRYTAAβ Short Belted Wrap Coat in Deep Pink. The website currently lists the camel version of the DRYTAA wrap coat.
BUT there is a longer version of Danica’s coat in that exact deep pink color.
