What does everyone want to wear to Thanksgiving dinner…. Sweatpants or perhaps anything with an extremely elastic waistband! But since so many of us would never, I decided to put together a fashion guide for Turkey Day! Thanksgiving is the kickoff for holiday fashion, but it’s also really the last hoorah, for all of our fall favorites. This is the time to go big on the cozy sweaters, warm fall tones, and the latest trends you saw this season – plaids, fringe, and boyfriend style (just to name a few). 

Here are some of my rules for picking out your Thanksgiving outfit:
1. Think stretch. Let's not set ourselves up for failure here by wearing ANYTHING we don't feel completely comfortable in. Rock your favorite pair of jeans and feel ZERO shame in spending Turkey Day in your leggings. You can always dress that look up and comfort is key. 
2. Cozy and Comfy is always welcomed. Fall is all about warm colors, comfy chic sweaters and over-sized scarves. Spend Turkey day feeling the comfort of family, friends, and giving thanks to all that is comforting about fall fashion! (Remember you can always layer your comfortable basics with fashion forward pieces -- aka my favorite chambray shirt with the Joan River's hounds tooth jacket over my shoulders.)

3. Make the most of fall trends. Before the holidays roll around and you find yourself limited to glam style and formal attire, take Turkey Day as your last big outing to rock the trends of fall. This is where you can show off your plaids, boyfriend jeans and sweaters, ankle boots, and don't forget fringe! 

4. Shoes -- Your footwear will all depend on where you're headed for Thanksgiving. If you know you'll be spending a lot of time in the kitchen and hosting a large dinner I say stick to flats. (My current favorites) You can never go wrong with a pair of your favorite riding boots. You'll be comfortable and get the last stretch out of your comfortable flat boots before the holiday's come around and it's all about the heel!(Isaac Mirzrahi quilted boots)

4.Mix your prints and add color -- Top off the fall fashion season by going out with a bang. Make a statement with prints & and color!
