Thanksgiving Outfit 2021: Poncho and Boots
There’s nothing like photographing a cool/cold weather outfit when it is warm. But I wanted to take advantage of the cotton fields before they were harvested so 70 degree weather was it! We probably should have waited about 30 minutes later as the sun was still a little high but I had done some Christmas shopping that afternoon and I was tired and ready to get it done.
When deciding what to wear for this post, I knew right away that I wanted to wear this Target poncho or better named Plaid Wrap Jacket I picked up with a birthday gift card from my brother. My first concern was whether it would be flattering as it is one size fits all but I loved it right away. It is really nice and soft!
The boots I picked up on clearance (at Target of course) last year but they are back at full price here. I love how comfortable the heel is and how they dress up any outfit. You may have noticed I wear my hats much more in the fall: love how they hide 3rd day hair or how handy they are when it is a little windy. Too much wind and the hat will fly away. I have 3 fall hats (black, grey and this one) and I laugh at my concern last year about whether I would wear them. The answer is yes!
The nice idea about a wrap at Thankgiving is that it can hide a filled belly and it can be taken off if it gets warm but would be handy if you are hanging out outside or by the fire and it gets cool. Loving the neutral colors in this one!
Looking forward to Thanksgiving! We are going out of town but I will say, I really love where we live. All of the pictures I take on the blog are within 10 minutes. This field is less than 5 minutes from the house.
Don’t you love how well the hat goes with the wrap: it is really more of a blush/brown but it really looks blush in this picture.
A bientôt!

What a fabulous outfit! I’m not sure yet what I’ll be wearing for Thanksgiving but probably something with layers or something lightweight as I’ll be in the kitchen cooking most of the day.

Thank you! I really like this one and most likely will just wear it out and about. Thanksgiving at the beach means casual wear.

The color of that poncho drew me in.

I think you live in the most gorgeous place! Do you paint? I think that fourth photo would make a lovely Impressionist painting! I just love how your clothing is mimicked in the landscape! So restful looking!

I do not paint but I wish I did. Lately, it was been beautiful around here in the early morning and early evening.

There are so many good reasons for a poncho, like this Mireille. Plus, you can always belt if you want to make it more fitted!!

What a beautiful backdrop that cotton field made!! I love seeing cotton growing. Just amazing how those little snow balls become the clothes we wear. I would like to copy your idea and pose at a cotton field near here. Not sure the cotton is still on the plant, though.
And that outfit. Love everything about it. Your end of season bargain boots, the pretty colors in your wrap, and of course that hat. I just got my first similar hat. Have a few that I don’t wear but I think I will wear this one. Your whole look has inspired me to create a similar look.

Not sure when they harvest it. It was a later crop than usual so we are still taking advantages for pictures! Come back tomorrow to see our pictures of the sunset at the cotton fields.

I hear you! The weather is similar to where I live as well as finding fields or big areas to take pictures in. I am also that you took photos anyway because these turned out so beautifully. I love the poncho and my gosh, those boots look amazing! I am not a shoe person but this pair is stunning.

You should have seen us today taking pictures for next month after the high school let out: found a cool building but we were quick because we knew parents were probably driving by with their kids lol!

This looks like such a cosy outfit for autumn! the wrap is beautiful on you, such a great colour and I like the lighter boots and hat with it too, cute pastel tones 🙂

Mireille, I absolutely ADORE this look! I’m going to have you as my favourite in the link up tomorrow! So fitting that it followed on my poncho look last week. Great minds think alike!

Hi hi! I love yours too! Thanks for the feature!

What a great outfit! And so easy to take the poncho off if it were to warm up, or put it back on when it cools down. Great transitional piece.
mimifce
Yes, I have worn it more since the pictures as a layer in the morning.
