Sometimes the holiday season doesn’t feel as merry and bright as it’s supposed to and if “bah humbug” is a little more natural to you than “Happy Holidays”, you’re not alone. No matter who you are, this season can be a stressful time and that’s nothing to be ashamed of and if that’s you or someone you know, we think you deserve more than just a pat on the back. We’ve gathered the best of the blue from the StockX catalog so that you and your loved ones can put the holiday blues in their place this year and channel those negative holiday feelings into something a little more poppin’.
Jordan 1 Retro High UNC Patent
This is the season you take those holiday blues and make them the platform you use to high-step your way into 2021. If you’re walking into the new year with a new attitude, you might as well do it in a new pair of sneakers. Just like you, this Jordan 1 Retro and its black, white, and light blue patent leather isn’t afraid to embrace the spirit of blue. There’s no better way to serve looks and stomp out the holiday blues than with a classic sneaker that’s just right for you.
Off-White x Nike Easy Run top
Nothing eases the holiday blues like getting active. If you plan to beat your feelings into submission this year,you might as well look amazing while doing it. That’s exactly what this Off-White x Nike performance running top, designed with both form and function in mind, will do. This collaborative piece features multiple eye-catching colorblocked shades of blue, a contrasted pink Nike Swoosh, and Virgil Abloh’s signature design motifs galore. The holiday blues have never looked better on you.
Off-White x Nike Easy Run Tight
If you saw the Off-White x Nike top and wished it came in pants-form, we’ve got some good news for you. Virgil Abloh and Nike dropped a full set, meaning that theoretically, you could get both if you wanted to. These pants feature a similar colorblocked bright blue design but with just a touch more of Virgil Abloh’s style. The back of these running tights demand respect, featuring the phrase “KEEP BACK” surrounded by Virgil Abloh’s signature quotation marks. The waistband is a little more creative as well, incorporating Off-White’s popular Industrial Belt design into the fabric. To top it all off, the two brands added just a touch of extra color via the contrasting yellow and pink drawstring. The holiday blues don’t stand a chance against the WFH fits you’ll be getting off in the new year.
Telfar Shopping Bag
The holiday blues are no match for a drink by the pool but if you live in a colder climate then that Bahama Breeze might feel a little out of place. With the Pool Blue Telfar Shopping Bag, the darker shades of the holiday blues will get a whole lot brighter. This bag may not bring you the warm weather needed for sitting poolside but it does look really good coupled with that summer drink you’ve been dreaming about.
Vans x Notre Old Skools
The holidays are all about connection and if you’re feeling down due to the lack of connection this year, we feel you. If you have a loved one struggling with the idea that these holidays don’t feel quite the same, the Blue Notre Vans might be just right for them. With a spirit of community and togetherness in mind, Notre took the traditional Vans Old Skools design and worked in some serious handshake emoji energy. While it’s no stand-in for a hug from family or friends, maybe these shoes and friendly handshake can serve as a tender reminder that you’ll see each other again soon. Send the message that this isn’t forever and that the connection is coming back with these skate shoes.
IVY PARK x adidas Jogger Pants
If the IVY PARK x adidas DRIP 2 collaboration isn’t the perfect remedy for the holiday blues, nothing is. Released just in time for the holiday season, Beyoncé’s second apparel collection with adidas is basically begging to become your new WFH uniform. Pair that with the fact that there’s nothing more fierce than showing the blues who’s boss and these sweatpants become a no brainer. We realize these pants aren’t exactly blue, but they’re close and they’re made by Beyoncé so we’re not really worried about it.
