WHAT TO WEAR FOR THANKSGIVING: OUTFIT GUIDE

Every year I always struggle with what to wear for Thanksgiving! I have a certain type of outfit in mind that I’m going for, but actually finding that proves to be super challenging! For my family’s celebrations, I always like to dress cute but definitely feel comfortable. These outfit guides are divided up into the type of outfit, so hopefully you’ll be able to find some inspiration for whatever type of look you like to go for on the holiday!

LEGGINGS

This is typically the type of outfit I wear for Thanksgiving- a little bit dressy PLUS stretchy pants for alllll the turkey! I’ve broken it down into two types of leggings depending on your preference.

1. Spanx Faux Leather Leggings: these are SO worth the price! I size up for a more comfortable fit and they’re my favorite. The faux leather finish makes them dressier than other pairs of leggings!
2. Aerie Offline Leggings: a great option for both cost and comfort! These are super stretchy and a great classic legging.
3. Rust Tunic Sweater: this is in the running for my Thanksgiving outfit! So comfortable and the quality is amazing- especially for the price. Comes in multiple colors and my true size is long enough for leggings!
4. Cream Tunic Sweater: have this from last year and it’s SO SOFT!
5. Black Tunic Sweater: always love a black tunic sweater with leggings!
6. Pearl Headband: comes in a pack of 4!
7. Tan Booties: SUCH a versatile bootie! I have worn these SO many times this fall! Under $35 too. Go with your true size!
8. Snakeskin Booties: have had these for multiple seasons and they’re STILL one of my favorites! Love the pop of print when I wear these.
9. Combat Boots: on my Christmas list! Soooo cozy!
10. OTK Boots: a classic! Comes in multiple colors and you’ll see these pop up in later guides too 😉 so versatile! Also on my Christmas list!

DRESSES

Loving the fall prints this year! Fall dresses are so pretty to layer under sweaters or jackets AND I’m really loving the sweater dress trend too!

2. Sweater Midi Dress: under $45! Comes in two colors and such a classic fit. Can style with booties/sneakers- so versatile! Layer it too with a denim jacket, Moto jacket or cardigan.
3. Turtleneck Sweater Dress: comes in MULTIPLE colors! I love love love this one and am also highly considering this one myself.
4. Midi Dress: love this print! Would be so pretty AND it’s on sale!

6. Taupe Knee High Boots: the price is unreal (UNDER $40!) and looks so cute on! Order your true size in these.
7. Cognac Booties: DEFINITELY a splurge but these will last you from season to season! Such great quality and such a beautiful shade.
8. Taupe Wedge Boot: also a bit of a splurge BUT great quality as well! Love the pointed toe on these.

COMFY

Honestly not much better in my opinion that comfy outfits!!! Especially on Thanksgiving. You’re already ready for that food coma post turkey! Thankfully this year there are SO MANY cute sweatshirt dresses that will still help you to feel so cute while feeling comfy. Love these looks with sneakers!

1. Tiered Dress: only $25 and comes in multiple colors! Love the tiers at the bottom- feels a little dressier in my opinion! Super cute!
2. Beige Hoodie Dress: THE PRICE! So good!!
3. Cream Sweatshirt Dress: the price is also SO GOOD on this one but order early! Shipping is a bit delayed.
4. Black Sweatshirt Dress
5. Black Slip On Vans: these have a perforated design and are SO cute! Super comfortable. I’ve had these for YEARS and wear them with so many different outfits!
6. Sneakers: saw these on Meghan Markle years ago and FELL IN LOVE. These are on my Christmas list! So many color options too. A bit of a splurge for sneakers but so worth it.

JEANS

Always a classic! I used to be so turned off by the thought of wearing jeans UNTIL I found comfortable jeans that are almost better than leggings. Sharing two pairs today that I think checks that box!

1. High Waist Raw Hem Denim: took me YEARS to get back into Abercrombie denim, but I have to say.. it’s even better than it was years ago! LOVE the fit and the quality. Haven’t found a pair of denim I love more in a long time.
2. Black Raw Hem Denim: LOVE their denim too! And the price is incredibly. I’m a big fan of black denim and I love the straight-slim leg with the raw hem on these!
3. Black Turtleneck: classic black turtlenecks are always a staple and I love how they look with black denim!
4. Chunky Gold Hoop Earring: the perfect size! love the thicker hoop as well.
5. Snakeskin Bootie
6. Balloon Sleeve Top: big fan of the statement sleeves this season!
7. Coatigan: perfect mix of cardigan with warmth! the slight herringbone pattern on this one is gorgeous
8. Layered Gold Necklaces: under $15 and it comes with BOTH! Just ordered and I love them! Just enough minimal and still being able to see the necklaces too.
9. Taupe Booties

SKIRTS

One of the biggest trends this fall has been SKIRTS! Plaid skirts and midi skirts with sweaters have been two of my favorites. It would be such a great option for Thanksgiving!

1. Scoopneck Bodysuit: comes in other colors! such a good option for keeping your top tucked in.
2. Plaid Skirt: love the colors in this skirt! Could carry you into the Christmas holiday season as well.
3. Zip Plaid Skirt: under $20!
4. Gray Sweater: love the mock neck! Would be so great if you’re not a fan of the tighter turtleneck fits.
5. Floral Midi Skirt: this print is so pretty! Comes in solid color options as well and SUCH a great price!
6. White Sneaker
7. OTK Boots
8. Cognac Booties
