Thanksgiving Dinner Part 2: the Formal Edit

November 15, 2017 By Katie Rushton Leave a Comment

This is our bubbly toast to the festive and formal side of Thanksgiving! Doesn’t the celebratory spirit in the air make it fun to dress up for a holiday soirée? Whether it’s a glammed-up Friendsgiving or a traditional family dinner on your calendar, wearing the appropriate attire is key to having fun, focusing on the good company around you, and not worrying that you’re under-dressed.

Following our recent “casual edit” (see Part 1 on the blog), we’ve outlined four essentials for a formal Thanksgiving dinner, each based on an inspo Pinterest look, that highlight the most luxurious textures and elegant lines of the season. We’re focusing on three styles each of (1) statement coats, (2) flirty florals, (3) rich velvets, and (4) edgy leathers, which blend seamlessly with each other, and/or pieces already in your closet, for a refined yet effortless look.
