Happy Thanksgiving week! Give a warm welcome back to J as he makes an appearance in today's post. We are excited to showcase some Thanksgiving styling tips and outfit ideas today, thanks to a few pieces from our latest Stitch Fixes.
1. Wear fall colors. There is no time better than Thanksgiving to pull out your best fall outfit and really embrace fall shades. I did an entire post on my favorite fall shades a few weeks back. The cliff's notes version: If it's a shade that the leaves are, it's probably pretty great for the fall. Add shades like rust, mustard, olive and burgundy into your look.
2. Dress up your everyday pieces. None of these pieces are overly dressy, however they are slight upgrades from what either of us might wear on a typical day. Rather than wearing jeans and a tee, J chose to style his mustard chino pants and a woven button down. He still felt comfortable but he looks way more put together for a family occasion. I opted for white jeans over typical blue denim for a more crisp look. A berry lip by Giorgio Armani (my new favorite lip color) finished off my look.
3. Play with textures. There's no better way to add interest to an outfit than by mixing up your colors & textures. I decided to pair a faux fur vest over my sweater and accessorize with a suede clutch and leather boots. Simple layers and the addition of some differing materials make basics much more interesting.
My Outfit: Sweater: Pixley Nilla Button Back Sweater c/o Stitch Fix | Pants: DL1961 c/o Shopbop | Boots: Jessica Simpson (so old, these were one of my very first pair of heels - still love them! similar pair here) | Vest: similar | Clutch: Street Level Abri Suede Envelope Clutch c/o Stitch Fix | Lip: c/o Giorgio Armani (shade 201)
J's Outfit: Shirt: Ezekiel Wailer Long Sleeve Shirt c/o Stitch Fix Men (J is obsessed with the Ezekiel brand since Stitch Fix introduced it to him!) | Pants: Mavi Zach Straight Leg Pant c/o Stitch Fix Men | Sneakers: Nike
What are your Thanksgiving plans? My family goes to my grandma's house in NJ where we spend the day with my mom's side of the family. It's one of my favorite days of the year :)

May God bless you, my friends! We are grateful for His ever present merciful love in our lives! From the south of Brazil, a happy and holy Thanksgiving!
ReplyDeleteBy the way, you're absolutely charming in this look. Very elegant, with that rural and country atmosphere that I really appreciate (and I use myself, as you know, since you visit my blog and you know my work). I loved the white skinny jeans, the fur vest and the booties. The color of the blouse was perfect too. Great combination!
