Family coordinated outfits for Thanksgiving dinner #CP

Oh, the joy of sharing everything you’re grateful for with your loved ones, that’s the true magic of Thanksgiving. And now that this holiday is approaching, we thought we’d start being excited about it and think about the way we celebrate it. In this article, we have some suggestions for families who want to celebrate this holiday and add a little outfit coordination to it. Not only does this look adorable in pictures, but it also goes with the loving vibe of the Thanksgiving tradition. Read along and get ready for a memorable holiday both in pictures and in real life.

Texture coordination

The first option we’re gonna suggest is that you coordinate in textures. This is a very uncommon way of matching outfits, but it’s such an easy and lovely looking one. A benefit of this option is that no matter the age and size of your family members, you’ll be able to find something for them. You can coordinate textures through sweaters or cardigans for example. Choose something like cable knit sweaters, as they are very popular now and you’ll be able to find them for each member of the family. Might be a bit trickier for men, but you can check some options here: https://www.gaelsong.com/prod_detail_list/mens-apparel Cable knit sweaters for the whole family will make your Thanksgiving dinner a cozy and comfortable one, and you can also dress them up it if you’re thinking of a It more elegant setting. This option is perfect for families, as it doesn’t really require much effort and will look great in pictures.

Color palette

Another way to coordinate your outfits for Thanksgiving, without having to stick to a very fancy dress code, or a fully matchy look is to go for a color palette. You can choose a few colors that go well together and have all the family dress in those colors. You can decide if you want 2 colors or 6 in your color palette, depending on how many members there are in your family. Try to choose colors that you know everyone would have in their wardrobe. You can adapt this from family to family, as some might own more colorful items, while others might prefer neutrals. The best thing about a color palette dress code is that it brings the family together in such a relaxed way, and everyone can choose how elegant or casual they want to be, as long as they bring in the color. It’s also a versatile choice, as people can choose to just accessorize with some colors and not buy new pieces for this event.

Matching accessories

On the same note of accessorizing instead of needing to buy new items, a dress code with matching accessories is the last suggestion we have. There are two ways you can do this. You can get all the accessories yourself and just hand them out when people come over, or you can find a theme and let everyone know to stick to it. Accessories can be anything from different types of hats, jewellery, socks, or festive costume bits. For example, you can tell everyone to wear a red scarf or tie for a coordinated but very subtle family look. You can get the kids some headpieces that are Thanksgiving themed so that you add a bit of fun to this idea as well. The best part about this is that it allows people to express their own style and to choose how long they want to wear their set accessories. They can wear it for a memorable picture and then feel free to take it off.
