It’s hard to believe Thanksgiving is just a month away! I always think of Thanksgiving as the official start to the holiday season — when we begin gathering and celebrating and getting extra time with loved ones. It’s a great marker in the year to recognize all we have to be grateful for and nothing beats being with friends and family over a delicious spread of food and cocktails.
Of course part of the Thanksgiving fun is also deciding what to wear! Whether you dress up for your Thanksgiving or you keep it more casual (and comfy!), today’s post has a variety of outfits to inspire your Thanksgiving look this year however you’re celebrating!

And don’t miss the just-launched Budget Friendly Fall Outfit Ideas guide for even more inspiration.
Roll Neck Sweater
You can’t go wrong with a striped roll neck sweater, it’s a classic for a reason! Plus the chocolate brown hue is perfect for the season. Pair with jeans and brown suede booties for a Thanksgiving outfit that’s casual but still pulled together.
Polished Plaid Blazer
The M.M.LaFleur O’Hara blazer is a Fall wardrobe staple for me! I think pairing with jeans and heels is a super chic Thanksgiving outfit, especially if you’re attending a more formal gathering or hosting!
Mini Skirt with Riding Boots
I love a classic riding boot and think they look so chic paired with tights and an A-line mini skirt. This feels like a dressy but still casual Thanksgiving outfit.
Suede Pants
I’m all in on suede for the season, and how perfect are these suede trousers from Sézane? I got a few seasons ago (size 8 and had them hemmed by a tailor – I am 5’5″ for reference) and paired them with my favorite ba&sh jacket. The perfect tonal shades for Fall!
Tweed Jacket with Jeans
Fall weather means it’s time for tweed! Tweed and lady jackets are a fall wardrobe staple for me, and I think they’re a great option for Thanksgiving. I love an elegant tweed jacket paired with jeans. My red jacket is Veronica Beard from last year, but this is a similar option.
Tailored Trousers
I think trousers are a great alternative to jeans on Thanksgiving if you want to look polished but still be comfy. I size up in these viral Abercrombie trousers, paired with this super versatile COS cashmere sweater.
Cropped Jeans and a Sweater
Cropped jeans and a simple sweater are a timeless formula for me. Simple, elegant, and perfect for a low key day spent with family or friends. These Paige jeans are fast becoming a favorite in my denim collection, paired with this sweater from La Ligne and these chic heels.
Plaid Blazer with Jeans
My uniform this time of year is a plaid blazer layered over a cashmere sweater and jeans with a feminine flat. I’m also a big fan of this oversized style from Everlane. It’s a casual-cool look for Thanksgiving and likely can be replicated without buying anything new for your closet.
If you’re looking for a different silhouette, I recently added this plaid lady jacket to my wardrobe and it’s darling!
Monochrome Outfit
Now I’m not suggesting you go to a holiday focused on eating in all white — maybe try camel? But a monochrome look is an easy way to look chic without a lot of thought. I reach for this cream colored jacket all year long, it’s that versatile plus I own it in three colors!
Printed Skirt
Ideal for dressier occasions, a festive plaid midi skirt could easily pair with a suede boot or (if you live in a warmer climate) a pump or a heeled sandal.
Oversized Cashmere Sweater
For when you need to undo your top button on your pants, an oversized cashmere sweater is just the ticket to allow you to do so! Wearing the La Ligne Marin Sweater above.
Black Trousers
A versatile, well fitting pair of black trousers is an easy way to feel dressed up without much thought necessary.
I like to pair mine with a cropped jacket for a chic, ladylike look. This is another pair I reach for quite often!
Oversized Wool Coat
If the weather has already turned chilly where you are, this voluminous belted coat from & Other Stories is a Fall and Winter MVP for me! Be warned, it does run quite large. I own the size Small.
Comfy Joggers
Perfect for pulling on post-turkey, you need these oh so cozy Vuori joggers in your life.

Mini Skirt with Booties
A tweed mini skirt paired with tights and a sock bootie is a favorite Fall look of mine and a perfect Thanksgiving outfit when you and yours dress up a bit more for the holiday.

Wrap Cardigan and Black Pants
I love a belted wrap cardigan for hiding my Thanksgiving sins. This one is made from stretchy, forgiving fabric. Pair it with black jeans or black pants and a feminine flat.
Little Black Dress
For a dressier occasion, you can’t go wrong with a little black dress. I paired mine with my beloved Chanel heels but these are a similar look.
Buttoned-Up Cardigan
I love the look of a cozy cardigan buttoned up to wear as a top. This one went viral on Instagram, and for good reason (I sized up twice to be able to wear it as a top)! I love the chic silhouette and oversized cuffs.

Sweater Dress with Booties
A midi sweater dress will no doubt be comfortable enough all Thanksgiving day.
There are countless ways to style a sweater dress; pair it with a pair of riding boots to dress it up, or sneakers if you’re going more casual.
Maxi Dress with Heeled Booties
If you plan to go all out with your Thanksgiving outfit, I recommend doing a maxi dress paired with heeled booties. To add a bit of a cool factor, you can top the dress with a leather jacket.
Lace Top and Slingbacks
I think a delicate lace top makes for the perfect Thanksgiving shirt if you’re going more casual; Sézane makes some my favorite ones! It’s slightly dressy, but still can be paired with jeans and a fun shoe like a slingback that’s comfy yet elevated.
Striped Sweater
Stripes are never a wrong choice in my book! Wearing one of my favorites from La Ligne, paired with these Inez booties that are both stylish and super comfortable. You can use code MEGHAN15 for 15% off your purchase of Inez shoes!
Knee High Boots
I love a comfy, cozy sweater dress for the cooler November weather. I like to pair mine with over the knee boots or knee high boots. And you could also belt it if you wanted. I think this is a super versatile belt.
Slip Dress and Leather Jacket
A easy one and done outfit! Don a slip dress with a leather jacket or even a little cropped lady jacket!
Silk Slip Skirt and Cashmere Sweater
Similar to the slip dress outfit but with a nice elastic waist band. I like to pair my slip skirts with cozy cashmere sweaters come November and tall boots. Perfect for a polished Thanksgiving look.
