25 Nov Cubicle Chic: 3 Comfortable Thanksgiving Outfits That Will Hide That Extra Helping of Pie
While everyone is talking about family, friends and food, don’t forget about the fashion of Thanksgiving! Well, it’s more about wearing something fashionable and comfortable on Thanksgiving. You might be tempted to just slip on a big shirt and any pair of pants with serious stretch. But I’m here to tell you to step away from the elastic waistbands.
This week’s Cubicle Chic is all about Thanksgiving outfits that are stylish and breathable. These are perfect turkey day looks or for the day after when you’re heading to the office with a full belly!
Dress / Necklace / Watch / Bag / Boots
The easiest option is to slip on a dress that hides a multitude of sins. But is enjoying candied yams and sweet potato pie in one sitting really a sin? This on trend plaid dress hits at the smallest part of your waist and glides over the rest of your midsection. Add a pair of stacked boots {less than $50 from Express} for a powerful stride, some shiny gold accessories like this tassel necklace and vintage-inspired watch. Lastly, treat yourself {again} to this classic Longchamp Le Pliage bag for under $100.
Sweater / Pants / Necklace / Bag / Boots
If you want the comfort of leggings but with a bit more structure, ponte pants are the way to go. These beauts from Calvin Klein are both cozy and stretchy while office appropriate. For that oversize shirt feeling, throw on a relaxed fit sweater. Add in some fun accessories like a statement necklace. A slouchy H&M shoulder bag and low heeled boots finish off this comfy chic look.
Sweater / Skirt / Necklace / Bag / Booties
Finally, another cozy option is a jersey skirt. This one from H&M is like wrapping your legs in a blanket. Pair with a boxy River Island sweater and you’ll be able to conceal your belly and that second {or third} helping of pie. Finish off with a face framing statement necklace {this one’s on sale at BCBG}, a colorful Steve Madden tote and a pair of stack heeled booties.
What are you wearing to the office after Turkey Day? How do you stay comfortable, yet stylish?
