Dressy Thanksgiving Outfits
My Sizing: I’m 4’10”, and my bust, waist, and hip measurements are 32″, 24″, and 36″. My inseam is 25″ (the measurement from the inside of my leg to my ankle bone). The clothes shown are unaltered and show how they fit me right from the store. I list my sizing beside each item to help you compare when shopping online. When referencing my true size, that is often the smallest option available at a brand or petite xxs/00/24. I wear a size 5 shoe.
Pleated Skirt
I love this pleated skirt from Aritzia. It’s so beautiful and floaty. For sizing, I’m wearing it here in XS in smoky sage. I also love this less expensive pleated skirt from Amazon.

This skirt also looks great with boots if it’s too chilly for the heels.

Silk Skirt
I think the washable silk skirt from Quince has the best petite fit around. I’m asked quite a few questions about this skirt so I’ll try to answer the most common ones here. The skirt is thin, but high quality silk. It’s washable and durable. I steam mine, and it does wrinkle with wear. I always wear spanx shorts with this skirt and often layer a half slip on top of it so the skirt doesn’t cling to the skirt. In this case I was wearing tights under the skirt so I used the tights as my shape wear instead and tucked the sweater into the tights. The sweater is oversized so I pulled as much of it out as I could without untucking it so it wouldn’t look bulky.

Black Skirt
This black skirt from & Other Stories has been in my wardrobe for the last couple of years. It has a great fit, is well made and isn’t too tight or short. It’s a great balance and I love the way it looks with sheer tights and boots or flats. I paired it here with the sweater poncho I shard in the leggings post. I threaded a belt through the arm holes of the poncho, leaving the back loose.

Swing Skirt
This swing skirt from Old Navy has a great fit and will be pretty for upcoming holiday events. Fit wise I find this skirt to be true to size, it’s elastic in the back and comfortable. The fabric has good weight to it, but is a little bit noisy (it reminds me of one of those swishy track suits). It’s a pretty skirt, and a good price point so I decided to still share it with that disclaimer!
