How to Look and Feel Great this Thanksgiving

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at DePauw chapter.

While most students are just thankful for a break from classes, some of us are also excited to see our relatives for the first time in months. Although DePauw gear may be acceptable while studying, and tight dresses are complimented on Friday nights at the frats, keep in mind that your grandma may not appreciate your normal attire. Make sure to stay classy and comfy during Thanksgiving dinner with these key tips:

Stretchy pants are your savior

Let your stomach, not your tightest jeans, decide how many slices of pumpkin pie you can eat. On your much needed break from school food, don’t feel guilty going for seconds!

J. Crew

As comfortable as leggings, but with added pockets!

 

Keep it festive in fairisle

Fairisle prints are always in for the holiday season. Curl up by the fire for a post dinner nap in a cozy sweater, knitted with all of the colors of fall leaves.

Macy’s

Perfect for layering!

 

Look sweet in a sweater dress

Impromptu photo shoots with your extended family always seem to break out during the holidays. Whether it’s posing for Christmas card pictures or a Turkey Day selfie, be sure to look camera ready in a soft sweater dress.

Victoria’s Secret

Can be dressed up or down!

 

Peplums hide pudge

Feeling a little bloated after dinner? Peplum tops ensure that no one else will notice anything besides your tiny waist!

Banana Republic

Fashionable and figure flattering!
