Purim, the Jewish holiday in which we celebrate kickass women, dress up, and drink until we plotz, is coming soon! This year, Purim begins on the evening of March 9, so, that’s right: It’s time to get ready.
Fortunately (or not, depending upon your perspective) Purim is not really a holiday that involves special pajamas or sweaters. After all, Purim is all about costumes! But not all of us are the dressing up type — and that’s totally fine — so a little Purim pin or special bracelet is enough to mark the holiday.
On the other end of the spectrum, some of us love Purim so much that we want — no need — amazing accessories to celebrate the holiday, from special earrings to Purim leggings you can wear during all the entire Jewish month of Adar (after all, if you love Purim, you might really be willing to commit.)
We’ve collected a host of items that will help you and your little ones feel more celebratory during this holiday season. While there are plenty of clothes and accessories on the list, what you won’t find here are costumes — for that, we’ve got some great ideas for you already, from how to dress up like awesome Jewish TV characters or a roundup of inexpensive Purim costumes.
If you’re looking to add a festive touch to your celebration of Purim this year, read on for our top picks. Chag sameach!
