Actual Thanksgiving isn't until this Thursday, but the week that marks the start of the holiday season is officially here. Besides our own family dinners, many of us also have invites to other Thanksgiving Day parties, be it a gathering of friends or an office potluck. While Thanksgiving is one of the more casual holidays, it's still important to dress to impress! But it's equally important to stay toasty and comfortable and allow enough room in the waistband to tuck into seconds of your favorite dish.
Chunky knits and long layers are a great way to stay warm and stylish, and also allows you to remove pieces as needed. Choosing a pop color for your party ensemble is also a smart move, making your look eye-catching and festive, but still lets you choose looser fitting pieces if you so choose. Need a more dressy option? Tiered lace and sheer fabrics are romantic, feminine and the added volume helps hide a belly growing from plates of turkey and mashed potatoes! Now is also the perfect time to test drive that pair of super sexy, purely amazing and ridiculously uncomfortable heels that you've been dying to rock! With so much sitting at the dinner table of lounging around couches, you'll be able to stay off your feet but still make a statement with your shoes!

Everyone deserves their moment in the spotlight and the best way to be seen is to wear something eye-catching! The holiday season is the perfect time of year to pull out all stops and really dazzle the crowd with some stylish sparkle and shine! The stars are shining brightly, but not as brightly as you will in these glittering garments and accessories. We don't need the stars to tell us that this is the season of friends, family and lots of fun mingling. A quick consultation, however, does help us see exactly which dazzling item will be perfect for our specific sign. Attention loving Leos would fare well in something that really glitters, like a dress or one-piece, to bask in the limelight. The more demure Aquarius is one of the most stylish signs, but may feel more comfortable with a sparkling accessory instead of head-to-toe glitz. The stars have helped us find which glittering fashion item would be just the right amount of shine for us while navigating the holiday party circuit.
