Thanksgiving is next Thursday, Nov. 27, and while your turkey is the star of the show, it shouldn’t be the only one getting dressed for the occasion.
Our Caribbean lifestyle lets us enjoy a slower, more relaxed pace surrounded by a close-knit community of family and friends. We love it here! But for some of us, this laidback, year-round summer we are blessed with sometimes translates into not always putting that extra effort into getting dressed, especially when it’s just us and family.
This Thanksgiving, however, whether you’re hosting dinner at home or stopping by auntie or grandma to spend the day with your cousins and extended family, showing up in style is definitely on the menu!
Ditch those crocs and slippers-with-socks for a cute pair of sandals with a low heel or a wedge. Leave the t-shirt and jeans behind and slip into one of your pretty, tropical maxis; a flowy, wide-leg jumpsuit; or a linen two-piece set. Being comfortable and cute for this holiday filled with food and fellowship is the way to go!
Below are three great looks that offer inspiration for a tropical Thanksgiving. Shop your own closet, shop online or stop by any of your favorite local boutiques for similar looks that will have the whole family feeling thankful when you arrive!
Printed Maxi
You can never go wrong with a maxi dress in the Caribbean. This printed, mesh maxi dress from Asos gives off fabulous fall vibes, perfect for Thanksgiving in the tropics. Wear it to the family dinner or to a Thanksgiving date night at the Ritz on St. Thomas.
