Thanksgiving is just 2 days away and I’m so ready to relax with family, stuff my face with turkey, stuffing, and pumpkin pie {my favorites}, and spend the afternoon in front of the fire watching football. One of the biggest things thats changed since getting married is sharing holidays! I used to spend every holiday with my family, and now I share those holidays with my husband’s family. Alexis {my husband} and I decided to switch off every other year – meaning this year we will do Thanksgiving with his family in Texas, and Christmas with mine in New Orleans. Next year we will flip flop and spend Thanksgiving with mine, and Christmas with his in Switzerland. I feel so lucky that I love spending time with my husband’s family, so it’s not a heavy burden to endure – its the opposite! I actually love sharing holidays – you get the best of both worlds, and get to build on new traditions!
As for what I’m going to wear on Thursday, this look would be perfect. We don’t need to get super dressed up for our lunch, but I also don’t want to show up in jeans either. This dress is the perfect in-between. The plaid makes it feel perfectly fall & these over the knee boots top the look off. If you live in a colder environment, you could easily add tights, booties & a comfy coat to transition this look into colder weather. Overall, an easy + comfortable Thanksgiving outfit!
