And just like that another year has evaporated into thin air among health worries, pandemic measures and rocking sweats in a WFH environment. The holiday season is mercilessly approaching with Thanksgiving around the corner followed closely by the Christmas frenzies. No matter what your plans are, the expectations are big and the real pressing question is: what are you going to wear?
Here, I’ve compiled a couple of outfit ideas that can be tailored to your agenda regardless of whether you are up to fancy soirees or informal affairs with family and friends.
1. The key to the perfect Thanksgiving get-together is comfort, but you also want to look chic.
When I think of the best way to combine comfort with flair, I envision a holiday look that is both effortless and timeless. This means that even though it’s time to get a little dressy, your style should also be practical with a casual focus on lose-fitting styles and elastic waistbands. 😁
2. The trick is to choose statement pieces in flowy and stretchy fabrics so you can approach the Thanksgiving menu fearless and polished.
Fabrics are of utmost importance because they will either elevate your look or make it ordinary. Tanya has already covered influencer-style velvet plushness whose luxurious quality makes it the ultimate holiday choice.
3. The best part is that you can easily dress UP or DOWN the statement pieces depending on your holiday set-up.
Make sure to select pieces that are versatile and easily convertible into casual or classy looks without sacrificing the much-needed comfort.
👉 So, let’s get down to business:
Slip dresses
I’d classify slip dresses as a bit tricky because you might look like you are going to bed in your nightgown and that’s why I’ve never really fancied these pieces. However, slip dresses are undeniably sexy and offer endless opportunities for styling from classy to more relaxed ensembles depending on how you pair them.
For a glam endeavor, just combine the slip dress with high heel sandals and a blazer to strike the ultimate fall flair. Top off the look with a designer bag and garnish with a glass of bubbly when you roll up to the dinner table. 🥂
If you are more in the mood for a relaxed family dinner, but still want to honor the festive occasion, toss over a sweater and matching sneakers. I guarantee that this look will def impress the most cherished crowd of loved ones and will carry you through the night looking adorable and enjoying the n-course menu all the way to the pumpkin pie. 🎃
Velvet pants
Oh, velvet pants are so sophisticated and at the same time so easy to wear! Their flowy quality makes them lush and refined, while their warm plushness is super cozy and will take you from the dinner table straight to the couch in a blink.
For when you want to be as comfy as possible, these velvet pants will def do the trick! Pair them with a long-sleeve graphic top, white sneakers and a French beret and you will radiate a casual French glamour.
💚 The velvet pants are an instant outfit changer! They just scream “the holiday mode is ON” and will keep you glam and toasty throughout any long dinner this year.
For a fancy look, pair the velvet pants with a pair of strappy heels and a floral silk shirt. Top it off with a red saddle bag for an extra cool vibe! Besides the smocked waist will come in handy after the seconds. 😁
