Fashion: Thanksgiving Looks

Thanksgiving is fast approaching, and with parties and dinners about to happen the one thing on every one's mind besides "what will I bring?" is "what will I wear?". I know that for me, I want to look put together, but still have my own flair. Since I know I will be seeing family, and friends family members, I want to look stylish and put together at the same time. I do not like to wear anything revealing or anything too stuffy. It is important to remember that at any gathering, large or small, it is going to get hot. Whether it be from a large family, or the oven heating up the whole house, at some point you might regret wearing a bulky sweater and wool pants. That being said I have put together 4 outfits that can be worn from formal to casual functions. They look good, and are also appropriate for family. I would rock all of these if I had that many parties to go to.



Look 1 

The look above is a great way to take a dress and take it into the cooler months. By adding tights the dress becomes weather appropriate and gives outfit some color without taking away from the purple. I would recommend opaque tights and steering away from the cable knit tights because again, it is gonna get hot. Now I do not wear scarfs as part of my outfit, but I do like this combo. It would also work if a neckline was a bit too low and needed to be covered up. For accessories I added two gold rings that would pop against the purple. A toned down outfit like this would be great to make your hair and makeup be the stand out.

This outfit might be my favorite out of all 4. I would wear this to the dinner I have with my friends because it is more casual, and would help when the house gets hot. When I have dinner with my friends, we all are in the kitchen getting dishes together, so it does get pretty steamy in there. Also you never can be sure of who might show up, so looking a little sexy is never a problem. The chiffon shirt with the jeans has a casual look, but still is dressy enough that when you sit down you would never know you had jeans on. The accessories make this outfit in my opinion. Pearls and light colored gold dress the outfit more than silver would. Like I said before, I would totally wear this and love it. 

Look 3

This outfit is great for many reasons. It is dressy and casual at the same time. The sweater is a wonderful royal blue and is not too thick. Also it is a slim fit and quarter length sleeve which will not swallow who ever wears it. Skinny brown pants allow style and comfort and a flat is great for family functions where kids might be running around everywhere. The stack of bangles add some color and texture without having to add too many accessories. This is an outfit I would wear for dinner with my family, it is cute, comfortable, and appropriate. 

Look 4

Now this outfit is definitely on the formal side. Personally, I have no experience in a formal Thanksgiving dinner, but if I did I would wear this. A light cream sweater and lace skirt are the perfect combo. Yes the both might lend themselves to a grandma feel, but the skirt is just tight enough to show what you got, and long enough not to get looks from family members. The cream sweater has a larger knit, almost sheer, showing a little bit of skin while still being covered up. The pops of pink add some youthfulness to the outfit. Pink and black are my favorite combo, but with small pink accents it is not too overwhelming.

There you go, 4 Kim approved outfits for Thanksgiving that still have style without offending anyone. Never wear anything you would wear to a bar, unless you can add a tank top or sweater over it. Have fun picking out outfits, I know I will.
