If you don’t know what to wear you can always rely on neutrals! Grey, brown, and black are the perfect base to work off of when planning your holiday outfits.

You can leave them as is or add pops of color to fit the fall theme. Make sure to dress in plenty of layers like tights and long sleeves under your sweaters.

Burnt orange and the various shades of it are the absolute perfect color to add to your fall wardrobe. Mix in some fun animal prints or a sheer top to bring some variety to your look.

Mini booties with a small heel are a classic addition to a fall look to make it a little extra special for a holiday gathering.

Pull out your cozy sweaters and cardigans to stay extra warm at your holiday gathering. I am absolutely obsessed with jumpsuits as well.

They are the perfect blend of looking dressed up and casual and offer plenty of room to stay comfortable throughout the whole holiday event!

Flannels, brown dress shoes, and beanies are always a safe bet for Thanksgiving outfits!

Skip the boring jeans and a button-down by layering jackets, swapping out jeans for brown khakis, or maybe even picking up a pair of corduroy pants.

Coordinating outfits with your loved one can be tricky! Try to pull different colors from each other’s outfits to ensure the look stays cohesive.

Don’t shy away from skirts and dresses for your fall outfits! It is easy to only wear these things in summer and spring but as long as you wear layers you can easily pull off a more flowy look.

Balance the flowy look of a skirt with chunky shoes or a thick sweater to break up the look.

If you are heading to a more fancy Thanksgiving dinner party or Friendsgiving gathering, consider wearing a turtle neck or dress jacket.

Even if you are wearing a simple t-shirt or light sweater underneath for comfort, it will elevate the look just enough to make it look ready for a more special event

Not everyone enjoys dresses and skirts and that’s totally ok!

Grab some comfy pants or leggings and throw a jean jacket or dressy jacket over it. That way you still feel comfortable as you enjoy your Thanksgiving feast but also feel a bit dressed up.

These outfits are perfect for Thanksgiving couples’ photoshoots! Flannels, vests, and sweaters keep that classic fall look going.

No need to match perfectly, you can mimic elements of each other’s outfits rather than looking like twins.

Jean jumpsuits, patterns, and bright tights in fall colors? Yes please!

No need to wear a classic fall flannel and jeans every year. Feel free to let your creativity flow with a unique look all your own that still pulls inspiration from the autumnal vibe.

What are good Thanksgiving colors for clothes?

The best color clothes to wear on Thanksgiving will mimic the autumnal colors found in nature. Think earthy colors that mimic the change of leaves and warm colors that are similar to seasonal produce. 

Some classic Thanksgiving colors are burgundy, orange, dark green, brown, and gold yellow

For your Thanksgiving outfit, you can start with a neutral color and then add in hints of the Thanksgiving colors listed above for a pop of color! 

Can you wear jeans on Thanksgiving?

There are plenty of ways to dress up a pair of jeans for a Thanksgiving dinner party.

Of course, it depends on how fancy of a dinner party you are going to but for most Thanksgiving gatherings jeans are fine. Pair your jeans with a dressed-up top or blouse, flannel, or sweater.

You can add accessories to also make your jean outfit look less casual. Jeans are a great option for Thanksgiving because they will keep you warm and comfortable as you enjoy the cool weather that fall brings.

I hope this list of Thanksgiving outfit ideas gave you some inspiration as you plan your clothes for this cozy holiday. Make sure no matter what outfit you choose you are comfortable and bundled up for those cool autumn days. Happy Thanksgiving!
