Edgy Layers
Wearing layers on Thanksgiving is a great way to hide a full belly–and to stay warm. A chunky scarf in a season-appropriate color and matching nails will finish off your ensemble. Make sure to stay warm with tights, a leather jacket (vegan!), and booties. Wear a knit skirt for added texture, and your edgy look is complete!
Sophisticated Chic
Against tights? Hate wearing dresses and skirts? Pants are always an option. Pick a pair with lots of stretch so that they’re food friendly. Add a jacket with eye catching details to cover your midsection and to keep you nice and cozy. A beret, clutch, and black flats are classic add-ons to make any outfit look more sophisticated. Keep the outfit fall-appropriate by incorporating an autumnal color, like olive, burgundy, or gold.
BohoĀ Casual
Create an Annie Hall inspired look by mixing menswear elements with boho pieces. Oxford shoes, a wide brimmed hat, and a long knit vest and perfect to pair with a lattice crop top for a casual Thanksgiving look. Worried about what you might look like afterĀ Thanksgiving dinner? It’s all good, just cross your vest over your midsection or throw on a comfy loose sweater. Plus, your jeans will hide any evidence of feasting.Ā High waisted jeans with super stretch are perfect for after a big meal: they cover your stomach while still allowing it to expand.
