Hi there!
I’m back again with yet another blog post! Q4 is really getting me in gear for 2020. In this post, I want to share with you some of my favorite Thanksgiving looks broken down by the dress code around your table this year.
I’m not sure what this “holiday” means for you, but my family uses this day to get together and love on each other. It’s really the only day that we can get majority of my massive family together under one roof so we take full advantage of it.
Now, we all know what this “holiday” is really about so we don’t call it celebrating what early settlers did to the rich and vibrant Indigenous people in “our” country’s troubling history, we just this as a time to give thanks and show love as we reflect on the year and prepare for the one ahead.
Let’s just say we reclaimed that day for giving thanks and showing compassion. It is an amazing day to give back to those less fortunate than yourself and loving on your loved ones (whether they be your family, friends, or other).
No matter how you decide to spend Thanksgiving, you need something to wear (unless the plan is to lay in bed all day sans-clothes, which sounds awesome as well)!
Are you gathering at Grandma’s house? Are you visit the family of your new beaux? Are you hosting a friendsgiving dinner? Are you going to a community center and serving food to those in need? Well I’ve got you boo! I have sacrificed my time to scoured the interwebs for the best and comfiest fits for you all, and I hope you enjoy what I have found!

The bougie cousin
Do you get together with your family and kiki with all your cousins as you work to secure your spot in the bougie cousin crew? Well these fits will ensure you are still THAT cousin that’s fun but also comes to show off and show out.
I’m thinking chunky sweaters with a fitted midi skirt! Here is a Pinterest outfit inspo & some of my favorite picks to recreate the look.
Chunky knit sweater + (faux) leather midi skirt + teddy coat
If midi is not your thing, let’s spice it up with a mini skirt and OTK boots! Don’t forget the OTK socks for when the shoes come off.
Turtle neck + mini skirt + OTK/ thigh high boots
The hot new GF
You are heading to dinner at your man/girl’s family’s house and you need to look like arm candy! We know you will impress them with your personality and all of that, but let’s make sure you also walk in looking like WOW!
There is something so sexy yet classy about a well fitting knit sweater dress or a knit set.
Knit sweater dresses + knit skirt sets
Friendsgiving hostess with the mostest
Hostess with the mostest! You don’t want to look like you have been working over the stove and kitchen since last night! Let’s rock something chic yet COMFORTABLE. Afterall, there will be plenty of picture and video taking so make you are ready honey!
Why not be extra comfy in your own home and rock a chic knit pant and sweater set! Solonge looks oh so good it in and so would you.
Knit pants + sweater sets
If knitwear isn’t your cup of tea, try one of these smock dresses that are popping up EVERYWHERE this season. My specific green dress is from Zara but you can find them almost everywhere.
Smock dresses
Date night over turkey
Going the date-night route instead? That’s cool! A lot of restaurants in my area will be open Thanksgiving evening for dinner. Its a great idea to let someone else take care of the cooking and dishes without the guilt.
I don’t know about you ladies, but I have been obsessed with slip dresses (and skirts) all year so I thought it would be cute to winterize the same dresses for a posh date night look.
Slip dresses + turtle necks
You can create a similar look with your satin skirts!
Service babe
This time of the year sees an increase of people wanting to donate their times to help others. With a rewarding day of service ahead, you want to be COMFORTABLE and hide any possible stains from handing a lot of food. Here a look that works well for this setting.
There is just something so chic about mom jeans or loose fit jeans with a fitted turtleneck and booties! Its effortless, comfortable and cute all at the same time.
Mom/ loose fit jeans + turtleneck + booties
I hope you have enjoyed my picks and are inspired by some (or all) of these looks!
Until next time! With love,
