With festive Christmas apparel, it is usually best to only wear one piece at a time. This outfit is the exception because both are very subtle and pair extremely well together. I actually found both of these items at the same time at the Goodwill and bought them specifically to wear together.
On the subject of Christmas plaids or tartans. The Stewart Tartan is by far the most Christmasy and it comes in a few different styles. While each style can vary slightly the pictures below are what they typically look like.

Another popular tartan for this time of year is Black Watch, which is not actually a Clan tartan but is more of a generic one. It is actually my favorite tartan to wear because it can be dressy and is very versatile. Black Watch actually varies quite a bit but below is one of the more standard versions.

Tartan can and should be worn as almost any article of clothing from ties, shirts, to pants, to blazers and even whole suits if you are lucky enough to find them. Just don't mix and match them, because they are an ancient version of gang colors.
