So, you’ve scored the invite to celebrate Thanksgiving this year with your boyfriend and his family. With the excitement and anxiety that comes with the invite also comes the dilemma of what to wear.

The Dress

You can truly wear a dress to almost any event. Sheath dresses are timeless and reliable. Remember to steer clear of of ones too short and too tight! Save that for the club, not the “meet the parents” moment. For fall, we favor a sweater dress or a shirtdress with tights. Determine whether or not the affair is normally casual or more formal to decipher between heels, wedges, flats, or flat boots.

Rachel Roy, a designer most known for her evening wear, is evolving into new territory as her business expands and effortless dressing becomes more of a must.  Her F/W 2011 collection certainly was less about evening wear and more about everyday versatility.  The collection had an emphasis on layering that made it easy to create looks that could go from day to night.  Hefty knits, stripped tops, and even floral harem pants gave the collection a stylish yet accessible feel.
