Thanksgiving carries a lot of emotions and events. There’s alway a lot of planning, and the last thing a guy wants to worry about when holiday season hits is what to wear. This guide will make having the meal of the year while looking fly as hell easy, whether you’re tossing a football with the lads, having a night in with your lady, or visiting the folks for the first time since the end of summer. Here’s How To Take Thanksgiving in Style:
Playing Ball With The Boys
Neff Cordy Cap – Keep your hair out of your face, your dome warm, and your eyes shielded during the game. The corduroy is soft and gives the feeling that fall is officially here. The shape is semi-casual, so its perfect for some running around with your squad.
The Quiet Life Standard Sweatshirt – The lighter blue is refreshing in the darkness of Fall, and this sweatshirt will keep you nice and warm while making plays. The grass stains will only add character.
Hashtag Board Co. Peace Sparker Tee – Just because you’re playing dirty doesn’t mean you can’t look fresh. This tee moves with you and is totally breathable. The navy blue goes great with the sweatshirt and it’s perfect for the game.
Altamont Alameda Slim Jeans – These are perfect for a good game and handle wear and tear well. You can go for the slim fit due to the stretch, which will make em perfect for running around the field while scoring off the field. These are the ideal football Thanksgiving jeans, and only $60 too.
Kicking it With The Boo
Hashtag Board Co. 3 Degree Beanie – For this night, you’re going to want to step it up. That means, you can’t wear a snapback. It doesn’t mean you can’t wear a hat. Throw on a beanie to brave the cold and hide the messy hair. Just a pop of color truly makes this the ideal beanie for the season.
Retrofit David Sweater – Like I said, it’s cold this Thanksgiving and you gotta look classy while you stay warm. That means a hoodie or sweatshirt won’t cut it. This washed Burgundy looks great with the dark navy and bright orange, and gives off just the right amount of sophistication to impress your girl.
Katin Holster Flannel – The perfect mix of casual and elegant, tying together both hat and sweater, this is the ideal date-night-in shirt for your Thanksgiving. Perfect for making a fire or stuffing a turkey, make sure to pick this up so after dinner goes just as planned.
Hashtag Board Co. Striped Palms Tee – Matching all previously mentioned pieces well, this tee really keeps your look cemented if you remove a layer. Just because its cold outside doesn’t mean you’ll keep everything on inside, but taking off a piece should not unravel a look. The Striped Palms Tee makes a great base to the rest of your outfit.
Kr3w Denim K-Skinny’s – As I’ve been saying through this entire section, now is when you smarten up. That means your football jeans don’t work as your romantic jeans. The need to get slimmer and darker, and don’t worry about it being too tight, this pair comes with the perfect stretch for post-meal suave.
Suavecito • Kent Moustache and Beard Comb – Let’s not forget hygiene. You need to do some maintenance. You can hide your hair under the beanie, but she still has to look at you, so make sure its a pleasant sight. Of course, with Movember being in full swing, there’s no way I recommend you shave, however do keep it neat with a slight trim and style it right with this sleek facial hair comb. It’s perfect for making sure she’s looking at you and not the pet you let live under your nose.
Formal Family Fun
Dravus Nine Nine Peacoat – This is where you really step up your game. You have to impress your family: not just Mom and Dad, but your weird Uncle Bill and your great Aunt who still pinches your cheeks. They’re old fashioned, so you have to pull off the formal attire. Yet blazers are for “the man” and everything you’re against. However, you do need to cover up since it’s cold outside, and what better way to do that than with a peacoat from a skate brand? Mixing class and edge, this piece is a perfect throw on to show everyone that you aren’t a man-child, yet you belong to the new school and think for yourself.
Quiet Life Peony Oxford – This is not your father’s dress shirt: the floral patterns and contemporary fit give it an air of badass the banker shirts always lacked. Combine with the peacoat and the rest of the outfit below, and you’ve completely outdone all of your third cousins coming dressed like the kids. Welcome to the grown-up table.
Matix Dae Gripper Chinos – This is no affair for jeans. This is serious. Make it count by grabbing a pair of slim stretch chinos like these that say “I don’t follow trends, I make them” yet doesn’t paint you as an attention seeker. Black for the win, in order to keep the edgy factor high.
Hashtag Board Co. Party Shark Tie – Against the muted blacks and pale blue shirt, the pink is sure to pop. Adding the tie will give you the perfect balance between fierce and friendly. You’ll still be their little boy, just now you’re their favorite little boy.
Suavecito Brilliantcreme – If you noticed, there was no hat in this section. That’s because hats don’t fit in formal-ish settings. Instead, you want to style your hair nicely but let it keep that natural feeling. Add a dab of this and style as you wish to be the most put together of the family…or at least look like it.
