Even though I shared My Holiday Gift Guides, I’ve not skipped over Thanksgiving…Today, I’m sharing What to Wear for Thanksgiving!  I also have great Thanksgiving content you can find on the Holiday Inspiration tab on the menu above.

I typically gravitate toward dresses and dressier looks but cozy and comfortable is also great!  So with that in mind, I’ve shared several looks whether your Thanksgiving plans involve dressing up or keeping it casual.  The links to each look are below and there is a boutique with more inspiration, too!

Great Dresses to Wear for Thanksgiving

Camel Shift Dress / Similar Brown Leather Knee High Boots / Similar Clutch

I’ve had my eye on this great dress from day 1!  The only delima was which color: Camel, Red or Navy!  Which ever you choose this will be a great Fall/Winter Staple Dress and perfect for Thanksgiving.  Stylish, comfortable and forgiving (wink, wink!)

Pink and Tan Floral Misa Dress / Similar Brown Leather Knee High Boots / Lip Color / Lip Gloss 

Feminine dresses with pretty prints and details are one of My Fall Style Staples.  I LOVE this dress.  As you know burgundy is one of my favorite colors for Fall.  This dress and it’s mix of beautiful mix of burgundy, rose, tan and cream are perfect for Thanksgiving and beyond!  It was also one of the October Reader Favorites!

Farm Rio Dress (on sale!) / Black Heels 

This colorful dress continues to be a Reader Favorite and is so beautiful!  It would be a great option for a dressier Thanksgiving at home or at a country club or restaurant.  You could also easily pair it with boots.  It’s currently on sale!

Violetta Dress in Montmarte / Similar Tall Brown Boots 

I absolutely love this darling dress. The gold, ivory and pink print on a navy background was love at first sight!  This is the perfect print for Thanksgiving and is available in several other styles from tops to maxi dresses.  Mille, which I featured here, has a lot of gorgeous styles for Thanksgiving.

Similar Oatmeal Sweater DressSimilar Dior Clutch / Similar Brown Leather Knee High Boots / Lip Color / Lip Gloss / Hazen & CO Addison Tiger’s Eye Bracelet / Molly Tiger’s Eye Bracelet / Bamboo Tiger’s Eye Bangle / Tiger’s Eye Earrings

This gorgeous dolman sweater dress is everything I love. Chic, simple with beautiful sleeve detail.  The one I’ve linked is VERY similar.  I’ve paired with my favorite brown boots and a Dior Clutch.

 

French Terry Dress / Similar Sandals

This French Terry Dress is one I grab over and over again.  I’ve just ordered the black version!  Pair this with boots in either color for a casual but still chic Thanksgiving look.  The pretty ruffle details make it special!

Black Long Sleeved Dress / Black Woven Sandals / Similar Givenchy Mini Bag

This easy dress is perfectly forgiving for Thanksgiving!  The light fabric is great for warmer climates and for sitting around the fire in cooler temps!

Great Tops for Thanksgiving

Emerald Green Burnout Top / Favorite Flare Denim (Fits TTS) / Similar Sandals / Similar Gucci Clutch

I love a statement top with jeans.  This emerald green top caught my eye and is perfect for Fall and the holidays.

This Faux Leather Top is another classic favorite.

 

Leopard Embroidered Top / Similar Leather Clutch / Hazen Tigers Eye Bangles / Hazen Molly BraceletHazen Addison Tiger’s Eye Bracelet / Hazen Tiger’s Eye Claire Earrings

And, I have to share this great top again because it is a show stopper!  I love a great detail and beautiful embroidery.  I took this leopard print embroidered sleeve top with me to Telluride. It has been a big seller since then and perfect for Fall/Winter.

Cozy Sweaters for Thanksgiving

Button Detail Sweater / Cropped Dark Denim / Ballet Mules

I’ve shared this sweater on IG stories already and so many of you loved it, too!  The exaggerated cuffs, two types of stitching and the horn buttons are great details that elevate this classic sweater.

Ivory Turtleneck Sweater / Light Wash Straight Leg Denim (Fits TTS) / Ballet Mules

This cozy sweater is still available in a few sizes.  It’s so soft and I love the gold button detail on the side.  It comes in other colors including a gorgeous red that is perfect for the holidays!

Quarter Zip Cashmere Feel Sweater / Faux Leather Skirt / Similar Boots / Similar Handbag

This creamy cashmere feel sweater to pair with a faux leather croc-print skirt is a great look for Thanksgiving.  You can find more cozy sweaters here.
