The Thanksgiving season is one of the most exciting times of the year. The weather cools off, the best of the holiday season is jump started, and, of course, the food. Thanksgiving is a fun time to celebrate with friends and family all that we are thankful for. Some families decide to dress it up on this night- where heels, skirts and button up shirts are a must.

From sweats and a scarf to knee-high boots with a blazer, the variety of Thanksgiving outfits for family gatherings is endless. But if you’re looking to change it up this year- maybe dress it up or dress it down- here are 10 bits of inspiration for Thanksgiving outfits!

1. Matching Plaid

Is matching with your family too much? Never! Well, maybe sometimes. But it can be super funny for a couple of you to coordinate your outfits together for a nice celebratory outfit check! Imagine how happy your grandma will be when you and your six cousins all show up in matching red plaid. If this is something you want to try, go for a Thanksgiving or fall basic like burnt oranges, greens, reds or plaid patterns.

The best type of Thanksgiving fit: the comfortable one. A cute sweat set is a great option for your 2020 Thanksgiving outfit. A nice pair of knit pants are super comfy and also surprisingly chic! These paired with a comfy sweater are the perfect way to stay super casual without sacrificing any of your style. Wear it monochrome to hop onto the 2020 monochrome trend and show off your fashion sense even more. The best part?

5. Slippers

Okay nowww we’re talking! Slippers are essentially the only shoe option for family Thanksgiving. While sitting in the comfort of your own living room or that of one of your family members, why cram your feet into high heels or tight boots? Slippers are a super fun and festive way to dress for the holiday. A good pair of slippers is cozy, cute and totally emblematic of the fireside season coming up.

6. Puffer Jacket 

Sticking with the cozy theme, a cute puffer jacket is a fun layering option for your Thanksgiving outfits. Like other layering outfit items, a puffer jacket is warm enough to wear when spending time in the fall outdoors, cute enough to wear throughout your Thanksgiving celebration, and easy enough to shed if you are warm enough indoors. Puffer jackets come in all shapes, sizes, colors and materials, so be sure to grab one that fits with your style or any one you think is cute, and pair it with not only your Thanksgiving fit, but any fall fit, any fall day!

7. Basic Sweater

Family Thanksgiving can be a really fun time to create an outfit for the (family photo-) books, or a perfect time to stay comfortable and casual in your own home. A basic sweater can work in either option. A striped sweater in fall-toned colors is a great way to meet comfy and cute right in the middle.
