From Yalkut Yosef:
1. The days between the first and seventh days of Pesakh are called Khol HaMoed and The Torah calls these days Mikra'eh Kodesh. All these days are forbidden to do melacha (activities that are forbidden on Khol HaMoed). Therefore it is appropraite and recommended to wear fancy dress on Khol HaMoed and its a Mitzvah from the Torah to be in simkha (happiness) on Khol HaMoed by eating meat and drinking wine. One should greaten the happiness of his wife by buying for her clothing and jewelry. Lechatkhila (the best approach) is to eat bread (matzah) during the meals of the day during Khol HaMoed.
2. During these days of Khol HaMoed it is a Mitzvah to greaten the learning of Torah because Pikudei Hashem Mesamhei Lev (Tehillim 19:9 - The orders [Torah learning] of Hashem are genuine, rejoicing the heart). These days are also days where one is forbidden to do melacha in order to differentiate between regular and ordinary days of the week and Khol HaMoed (days between Yom Tov).
