What to Wear: Thanksgiving Weekend Parties

Thanksgiving weekend is often spent with dear old friends we haven't seen in ages, whether it's a planned reunion or impromptu get-together. Be ready to impress - without trying to hard - in an embellished tank, colorful cardigan, chic skirt and edgy ankle boots - a look that can take you from a friend's apartment to a bar or even a club. (That is, if you aren't exhausted from all that Black Friday shopping you'll be doing today!)

What to Wear: Thanksgiving Day

Thanksgiving is the perfect time to pull out those trendy harem pants you bought on a whim but never ended up wearing. Think about it: Elastic waistband, forgiving silhouette, major cool points for being a fashion "risk"! Pair your harem pants with a velvety top and some ankle boots to complete your laid-back ensemble.

What to Wear: Holiday Office Party

Dressing up for the holidays is one of the greatest joys of the season but most of us don't have the money to overhaul our wardrobes. Fortunately, with a few key pieces, you can update things you already own and make them feel fresh and festive. First up, here's what to wear to that office holiday party. You probably already own a white blouse and black skirt. Try layering an inexpensive sequin tank (size up if necessary) over the blouse -- left casually unbuttoned, sleeves rolled up just a bit -- plus black tights and ankle boots for an entirely new look. Sophisticated yet glamorous -- and totally affordable!
