Today I came up with eight classic Thanksgiving outfit ideas to wear this year because it is less than two weeks away! I like to keep Thanksgiving simple and personally, I prefer jeans over a dress or skirt. But I did include some dressier options as well as options if you want to look nice but don’t want to lose comfort. Our family is pretty casual these days, so I personally like to look nice, but I still want to be comfy. Here are eight classic Thanksgiving day outfit ideas to wear!
This year we are hosting again! We hosted three years ago and while it was a lot of work- I loved it. At least I have done it before so I sort of have an idea of what I am doing. We ended up with way too much leftover food a few years ago, so I am going to cut back considerably. And I am making a turkey. Last year, we decided to change things up and do beef. My husband convinced everyone that no one really likes turkey which he has a point. But it didn’t feel like Thanksgiving! So I am making a small turkey and I ordered a small ham as well. The best of both worlds. I don’t know what I am wearing just yet- I could see myself in a version of all these outfits!
Thanksgiving Outfit Ideas

Jacket | Button Down | Pants | Necklace | Flats | Bag
You can never go wrong with a classic button down- this one is my favorite. Add a sleek corduroy pant and a pop of leopard and you have a classic outfit to wear for Thanksgiving this year.

Sweater | T-shirt | Earrings | Corduroy Pants | Bag | Belt | Booties, also here
I just got these Levi corduroys and wow I am super impressed with them. They have a little stretch to them so they are really comfy if you plan on eating a lot lol. Add a simple rollneck sweater and a pair of booties. I prefer a lower heel these days so these are a great wardrobe staple.

Jacket | Sweater | Earrings | Pants | Bag | Bracelet | Flats
This is a great outfit if you want to be dressed up but don’t want to lose the coziness of the holiday. I own these pants in navy and love them! I plan to wear them a lot this holiday season. They are stretchy and silky and feel great on. The brown feels very Thanksgiving appropriate! I also love this new Hill House jacket so much. It is so sophisticated!

Sweater Jacket | T-shirt | Earrings | Bag | Jeans | Flats
This is another favorite outfit of mine for the holiday! Pair a dark straight leg jean with a sweater jacket and add some fun earrings. You look classy without trying too hard.

Jacket | Sweater | T-shirt | Earrings | Jeans | Bag | Flats
This sweater is a bit of a splurge but you could wear it for Thanksgiving and into the holiday season. I love the colors of it and the print. A twist on a classic!

Jacket | Turtleneck | Bracelet | Skirt | Boots | Tights | Bag
If you want to be a little dressier for Thanksgiving I immediately knew this skirt would be perfect for the holiday when I first saw it! Browns just feel very Thanksgiving esq to me.

Jacket | Dress | Button Down | Earrings | Bag | Tights | Flats
This dress works for Thanksgiving and the holiday season if you have any other dressier events. To wear it a different way, I would pair it with black heels and a blazer for a simple and sexy look. I’ve had this bag on my wish list for far too long! It also comes with a strap so you can wear it as crossbody. A girl can dream!

Jogger Set | Blanket | Glasses | Candle | Socks | Slippers
And lastly, I wanted to include a comfy outfit to wear once your guests leave. This jogger set is great to relax on the couch after a long day of cooking. And is especially cute if you are hosting overnight guests where you want to be comfy, but still look good. I will be burning my favorite fall candle on Thanksgiving- it smells the best!!
