19 Feminine Thanksgiving Outfits for Every Type of Feast
While it seems like crisp fall weather has finally arrived, Thanksgiving and the holiday season are not that far away. I’m talking about weeks, not months!
Thanksgiving is a time to spend with family and friends, eating good food and meeting new people. Whether you normally spend the holiday at home or travel out of state, the question of what you're going to wear has probably come up by now.
If you’re hanging with the whole family, it’s best to keep it cute and comfortable. Jeans are a great option for dressing down looks, and sweaters are a fall favorite for a reason! If you’re meeting your boyfriend's parents for the first time, make sure to reflect your personal style while also keeping in mind expectations and remaining classy. Friendsgiving situations are either an excuse to see everyone dressed up or the holiday equivalent of a Sunday afternoon game, so dress accordingly!
If you don’t know what you are planning to wear for the festivities, or maybe just want to switch up your typical look, here are 19 outfits perfect for Thanksgiving this year.
1. Sweater Dress
One of the coziest options for Thanksgiving this year is a sweater dress! Add a pair of nylons for added warmth and elegance, your favorite boots, and simple jewelry for an adorable look.
2. Stripes and Trousers
Another on-trend holiday look that is easy to create is a striped sweater and trouser pants. We love an oversized sweater look with its subtle Parisian influence, and a pair of curve-hugging trouser pants maintains your feminine shape.
3. Sweaters
You have sweaters in your closet, so pick one and dress it up with fun accessories! A hat, a new pair of boots, or some sparkly jewelry can make the simplest outfit feel and look special!
4. Mini Skirt and Boots
Depending on where you spend Thanksgiving, the weather might be warm enough for a miniskirt and boot combo. A California girl’s go-to fall look, try a pleated skirt and your warmest sweater, with a fun pair of black boots to tie everything together!
5. Wide-Leg Trousers
Wide-leg pants are comfortable and chic, and are the perfect base for whatever outfit you’re planning to wear! Try cream or tan pants, with a white bodysuit, and then add whatever layer you like: blazer, coat, cardigan, etc. So versatile!
6. Maxi Dress
Feminine and fun, the maxi dress provides the perfect coverage for a colder day, and also looks adorable in photos! Pair your dress with boots or heels, depending on your Thanksgiving vibe.
7. Oversized Flannel
Another instant fall favorite is flannel. However, for this Thanksgiving, choose a slightly oversized fit and layer it over a matching set for the best comfy day look.
8. Cardigan
Keep it simple with a cozy cardigan and jeans. A pair of straight-leg denim, preferably medium or dark wash, and a fall cardigan is a great option if you feel like you have nothing to wear!
9. Monochrome
Another statement outfit is a monochrome look, particularly in dark fall shades of burgundy or brown. A silky maxi skirt paired with an oversized turtleneck sweater and a matching belt is the ultimate combination for an effortlessly chic Thanksgiving!
10. Suede
Another seasonal fabric to try is suede. Not just for boots, a suede jacket and matching set is a great way to incorporate fall shades without the autumnal orange tones.
11. Leggings
If comfort takes priority for you during Thanksgiving, then dress up a pair of black or brown leggings with a neutral-toned sweater and a coordinating hat.
12. Denim Mini Dress
Sometimes dresses are the best way to go. Especially if you plan on cooking all morning, lay out a fun (yet ridiculously easy) denim dress for a simple outfit that looks like you spent all morning getting ready instead!
13. Keeping It Neutral
If your capsule wardrobe is full of neutral colors, then this is the look for you! A cream or white tee and neutral coat look great together, and you can add sneakers or boots depending on the length of your jeans. Add a brown handbag and lipstick, and you’re ready to go! This also makes a great Black Friday shopping look for after dinner.
14. Satin Midi Dress
For a more elegant look, a satin midi dress and jacket are a great combination! You can dress down the look with short black boots, and keep the hair and makeup minimal. Some women show up to Thanksgiving dinner dressed to impress, and in this outfit, you’ll steal the show!
15. Dressed Up Bodysuit
Styling black denim can be tricky, but one easy way to wear your favorite pair is with a dressy bodysuit. If you have a bodysuit with some feminine touches, like a corset top, shimmer, or an off-the-shoulder fit, it can definitely work for a fun and flirty look! Add a subtle smokey eye and brown lip for added spice.
16. Mock Neck
Cool girl style is at its best during the fall months, and this look is no exception! A cream, mock neck tank with a pair of wide-leg pants will turn heads this Thanksgiving. Add an oversized blazer and boots for a little something extra.
17. Cropped Trench Coat
Cropped trench coats are one of the biggest style trends of the fall, and for good reason!
18. Statement Coat
An easy way to choose an outfit is by starting with a statement piece, like a bold colored or patterned coat! The rest of your look can remain simple, with a neutral base and boots. Your coat will steal the show, and you’ll be warm!
19. White Denim
White after Labor Day always hits. We love this wide-leg pair with cozy, rich brown tones and feminine Mary-Janes for a low-key Thanksgiving.
