Warm weather Thanksgiving outfits for the South, California and Florida
Thanksgiving in Miami, Los Angeles, Houston or Phoenix can be 80 degrees and dinner on the patio. The move is keeping the autumn palette and losing weight: rust, wine red and chocolate brown in lighter fabrics, with bare shoulders, shorter dresses and sandals that stand in chunky knits and knees.
These four mirrors were made for that. The baby tee version of the plaid maxi skirt in our casual section works here too.
28: SoCal Thanksgiving Plaid Lace Dress
Wine red is our holiday color for 2026, and this color is a personal choice: I own it checkered midiAnd this is the dress I’d reach for when Thanksgiving in Southern California hits 78 degrees. The lace-trimmed bodice makes it wearable enough for the good china, the slits in the bias cut move as you walk, and the thin straps mean no one is overheating by the second.
Style it the easy way with black shoesSmall oval sunglasses and gold earrings, then throw a leather jacket over your shoulders as the sun goes down.
