Friends are coming home, your family’s getting together for the first time in months, or (yikes!) you’re meeting your SO’s family for the first time. No matter what you end up doing for Turkey Day or whom you’ll be with, you’ll definitely feel your best when you look your best.
Your the Hostess
You want to stand out just enough since your hosting the fete but don’t want to look over-the-top. Choose simple pieces that will help you go with the flow all day and all night.
Chic but simple enough too move around in the kitchen. Click on the image to shop this look from Banana Republic: Sequin tank $98, velvet skinny pant $110.
Hanging Out with Friends
Your friends have seen you in your sweats, at the club, and all dolled up for last summer’s weddings. Look polished but relaxed to show your casual and sophisticated side.
A sweet, casual but fun look. Click on the picture to shop this outfit from Delia’s: Tunic $19.50, brocade skirt $39.50, fur vest $49.50.
Meeting Your Significant Other’s Family
This is it! Your excited and nervous all at once. Make your outfit one last thing to worry about by erring on the conservative but putting some pizazz into your ensemble. One statement piece of jewelry, a great jacket or a noticeable scarf can be great conversation pieces and show your style over a simple dress / tights / boots or slim pant / sweater / vest combo. (And don’t worry – they are going to love you!)
Wear this fabulous dress with FCUK’s suggested puffy-shoulder blazer and ankle boots for a put-together but fun Thanksgiving dinner look. Click on the image to shop this look from French Connection: Flower dress $158.
