Thanksgiving is one of my favorite occasions to make the everyday feel a little more special, from setting a beautiful table to gathering with family and friends over a delicious meal. Whether you're hosting a houseful of guests, bringing a thoughtful gift to your hostess, or simply deciding what to wear for the festivities, I've gathered a little bit of everything to make the holiday feel memorable. Think beautiful linens, warm candlelight, charming serving pieces, and plenty of outfit inspiration, from cozy knits and relaxed layers to elegant dresses and festive finishing touches. All the little details that make Thanksgiving feel so warm and welcoming, with a few pieces you'll love long after the last slice of pie!
- I bought this insanely beautiful tapestry tablecloth after seeing it at a friend's house last year and it simply brings me so much joy! Play up the golden tones for Thanksgiving or emerald green for Christmas. This tablecloth and these napkins offer the same look for under $200. I love toasting with my blue and plum Murano champagne coupes, which make any holiday feel festive.
- Cozy enough for seconds of pie, this scrolling jersey maxi dress has a high neck and soft, brushed fabric.
- Scalloped edges on this chestnut lacquer tray make serving cocktails or cheese feel extra special. (Honestly, all the colors are amazing.)
- Heading home for the holiday? I love the nostalgia of this patterned duffle, or this patchwork tweed duffle is a splurge you'll carry for years. (Give it to your guy...then use it yourself?)
- I just bought these shearling-trimmed suede loafers to keep things cozy. (Shearling shoes are a major trend that deserves it's own roundup!)
- Burgundy florals and soft tiers make this dress a showstopper for fancier celebrations.
- Layering a brushed flannel plaid button up (so soft!) over a cashmere turtleneck is my favorite casual fall formula. (Seen here.) It's perfect with jeans for '90s rom-com main character energy.
- These brass hurricanes are always sold out (so snag them if you love!). They look so handsome next to hand-stitched leather napkin rings to bring equestrian polish to the Thanksgiving table, and the hurricanes can move right back to the mantel once the dishes are cleared.
- Throw this reversible lambswool cape over a turtleneck and jeans for a chic, warm layer in autumnal check.
- Gold embroidery makes these smoking slippers so chic for a dressed-up dinner or with jeans at home.
- Clip this faux fur collar onto any black sweater for instant glamour, thanks to its sparkly beaded brooch.
- If you want that cozy restaurant glow at home, add a cordless LED lamp to your tablescape. No outlet is needed, so it can sit right on the dinner table or kitchen island.
- Hostess gifts they'll actually use: a gold matchbox sleeve set with two jasper stones, a sculptural candle with a pretty coral interior, and this hand cream, a winter secret weapon that absorbs instantly with no greasy feel. Bundle them together to ensure you're invited back!
- Fair Isle season is here! I can't decide between this speckled alpaca sweater with its brown and cream yoke and this brown and burgundy cardigan. Either feels so festive for a casual Thanksgiving with jeans.
- Brown spongeware is a handsome and homey option for Thanksgiving and the winter months. Mix it with these hand-painted bird plates, with their scalloped eyelet borders, and the matching terracotta pitcher for a gorgeous neutral table for a crowd. (They look great alongside vintage pieces, too!)
- My favorite cable knit cashmere lounge set ($50 off with STACIE50) in this gorgeous chocolate or green is perfect for Thanksgiving morning or watching a holiday movie after the main event! (Plus it's machine washable!)
- Ladylike velvet trim makes this green herringbone coat so pretty for holiday brunches, and it's under $400.
- Pearl and diamond studs add just the right sparkle to a cozy sweater or a dress at the holiday table.
- Tiny but mighty, this silk drawstring wristlet holds keys and a hair tie for dressy dinners.
- Every hostess needs a cast iron cocotte, and this matte espresso one looks gorgeous going from oven to table.
- Setting the table starts with a beautiful cloth! This cream baroque floral tablecloth with pink blooms and birds feels elegant for a formal Thanksgiving, while this cotton ditsy print tablecloth in rich brown is ideal for a cozy, casual feast and dinner parties all season. Layer either with candles and your nicest china.
- Navy and ivory jacquard makes this sherpa zip-up so cozy for a morning walk before the feast.
- This dark brown merino-cashmere wrap midi ties like a knotted sweater and is perfect for a cozy dinner, and this clutch adds interest for only $108.
- Plaid feels just right for Thanksgiving, and this cotton twill shirtdress is easy with boots all season.
- Silk wide-leg trousers in this paisley are dressy yet comfy, ideal under a marigold-colored sweater for dinner.
- Pie in hand? This quilted travel tote carries hostess gifts, a sweater, and everything else for a weekend away.
- An embossed velvet evening jacket in dark brown dresses up jeans for a holiday dinner party.
- Restaurants in NYC all love to serve chocolate mousse from a chilled silver basin, and you can do it at home with making a big batch of my favorite mousse and serving it in this pedestal bowl.
- The bandana intarsia and fringe on this wool-cashmere shawl cardigan make jeans feel special.
- My quilted Barbour with its corduroy collar is on repeat for crisp holiday weekends.
- For a polished but comfortable dinner, I love a chunky oversized wool crew over fluid satin bias pants in a matching tan. The tonal look feels so elegant, and the pull-on waist leaves room for pie. Put your hair up with this stunning tortoise hair pin to complete the look.
