The Holiday Party Outfit Guide: From Thanksgiving Dinner to Christmas Cocktails
A holiday calendar can fill up quickly from Thanksgiving to New Years. The season feels like a revolving door of parties, hosting obligations and family trips across the country.
If you feel like your closet is falling behind your holiday plans, don’t freak out! The truth is you don’t need an entirely new outfit for every event, you just need a few thoughtfully chosen pieces that can take you through the season!
We know what it’s like to always be on the go, especially during the holidays so let us take care of your most picture worthy moments this holiday season, we truly have an outfit for any occasion at The Lucky Knot!
For Thanksgiving dinner: think comfortable and polished
Thanksgiving is truly the first big event of the holiday season, whether you are hosting at home, flying out of town to see relatives or being a guest at your closest friend’s gathering. Thanksgiving outfits are all about comfortability while also tying in cozy end-of-fall vibes.
Our thanksgiving picks are effortlessly chic, ready to move with you all evening. An easy dress, like our Sail to Sable-smoked midi, strikes the perfect balance between holiday glam and comfy hometown vibes for the hostess. Our Jude Connally Anna Jude Cloth Dress is another easy wear option for packing light for out of town visitors.

For the daughter who is coming home for the first time since being at school, go ahead and pick up our Kingsley Dress for her to wear on Thanksgiving, catching up with friends at brunch or even to her next big event when the semester resumes in December.
If a more casual thanksgiving is up your alley, our Boho Chic Victoria Jacket paired with a simple pair of Renuar Ankle Pants with your favorite fall boots - call it a day, perfect for helping with the dishes after dinner and chilling on the couch for some afternoon football.
For the office holiday party: festive details are key
Let the invitation guide your outfit. A lunch with colleagues calls for a different look than an evening celebration, but with some festive accessories on hand, you’ll be ready for whatever that company invitation holds.
For a versatile option, start with a classic dress, like one of our Patty Kim Kelly Dresses, then add one festive detail: statement earrings, a velvet headband, or a beautiful evening bag.

A long sleeve plaid dress like our J.Marie Raya Long Sleeve Bow Dress with simple jewelry is another lovely choice that you can dress up or down for day or night festivities.

If you know your company goes all out every year, that is the perfect excuse for some sparkles. Our Sail to Sable sequin dresses are classic and fun pieces that you can reach for again when New Years creeps up!

For Christmas cocktails: rich color and a little sparkle
Evening celebrations are the perfect opportunity for emerald, red, black, or a touch of sequins. If your dress makes a statement, keep the accessories simple and let it shine.
Some of our favorite dresses that speak for themselves this season are from J.Marie. The Collins and Cami Midi dresses shine on their own with pearl buttons and shimmering fabric.

Prefer an understated look? A black dress like the Jude Connally Maggie Velvet Dress paired with Susan Shaw's Pearl Scroll Studs make a classic and timeless outfit for any holiday gathering.

Make your favorites work twice
Our classic dresses from Jude Connally, J.Marie and Patty Kim are essentials you can keep in your closet and reach for year after year. Whether its a plaid favorite, a timeless red or a silky velvet, our holiday favorites have you covered for any holiday event!
