Hanukkah Outfit Ideas
Whether you’re searching for looks to wear to your family Hanukkah party, to the local menorah lighting, or to make latkes with your bubbe, we’ve got you covered with stylish and tasteful ensembles. There’s even a cozy loungewear outfit that’ll come in handy for an evening in with Chinese food and a movie.
What to wear for the first night of Hanukkah
The first night of Hanukkah is a little more special because it's the only night of Hanukkah that we say the Shehecheyanu. The warm Turtleneck Cable-Knit Cropped Sweater from Gap, paired with the dark-wash Way-High Sailor Jean from Everlane makes for an elevated casual look that is perfect for first night vibes.
The Apsvo Chunky Gold Earrings adds a glimmering touch to the look—and it’s a popular dupe for a luxury designer style—while the black Angolo Leather Belt from Banana Republic accessorizes the look masterfully. Finally, add on the trendy Jeffrey Campbell Lugged Platform Clog for a contemporary touch that’ll balance out the wide-leg jeans.

What to wear to the family Hanukkah party
The goal of every family holiday party is for your bubbe to like your outfit the most out of all the cousins and grandkids. This look is sure to impress with the adorable Victoria Cashmere Floral Ruffle Sweater from Anthropologie and chic Maeve Colette Mini Skirt. Adding a statement-making accessory like the Velvet & Crystal Knotted Headband from Lele Sadoughi will bring in a little glitz while being highlighted by the glow of the family hanukkiah.
Add in some sheer black tights for a little extra warmth, we suggest the Luxury Shaping Semi-Sheer Rip-Resist Tights from Sheertex, and a pair of the timeless Vince Camuto Enachel Heeled Loafers in brown. This outfit is simple enough that you can dress it up or down with whatever accessories you want—though we’d reach for this pair of Pearl Threader Hoop Earrings from Anthropologie. It's a timeless look that fits the Hanukkah vibe and will definitely earn you a "shayna punim."

What to wear for latke making
When making latkes, safety is key. With all of that oil splashing around, we don't want any sleeves getting fried. This Ralph Lauren Ruched Asymmetrical Stretch Cotton Top is sweet, and its fitted sleeves won't be a fire hazard, keeping you safe while cooking. We also want a top that won’t have you schvitzing as you flip said latkes and sufganiyot.
Pair the shirt with a smart high-waisted bootcut jean and you're good to go. We love the High Rise Vintage Flare Jean from Abercrombie & Fitch. We'll also add in a cute and fun “I love you a latke" apron to protect your new outfit (and your body) along with some stylish Pure Silk Scrunchies from Slip to keep your hair out of your way while you're cooking and eating those delicious traditional holiday favorites.

What to wear to the dreidel competition
The Jewish people may not have a Santa run, but it doesn't mean we can't bring in other fun "athletic" competitions or experiences! Have your own Maccabiah—or dreidel tournament—and make it an excuse to treat yourself to a new athleisure outfit.
Dreidel spinning is hard, but the Align Leggings from Lululemon will give you an edge over your nephew as you take all the gelt from the center pile. These aren’t just any leggings. The Align leggings are one of the best leggings we've tested.

What to wear for the office holiday party
Not every holiday look has to include red or green—we love that Hanukkah's colors are blue, white, and gold. This outfit is a nod to Hanukkah's color palette with the Reformation Peyton Dress in navy. This dress is fancy enough for a work event, while also being seasonally appropriate with long sleeves and a slightly longer skirt. Pair it with a set of sheer tights and the pointy-toed Gambol Slingback Pointed Toe Pump from Jeffrey Campbell for a timeless look.
The best part of this outfit is that there are many ways to accessorize it. We went with the Large Keshi Pearl Hoop Earrings from Monica Vinander and the Kiko Collar Necklace from Baublebar.
