It won’t surprise you to learn that Jennifer Lopez doesn’t like to do things by halves when it comes to Thanksgiving.
The superstar singer shared snaps of her celebrations on Instagram, which included delicious-looking pies and a huge turkey, and I’m seriously impressed by the fact she seemed to do all that cooking in a designer silk dress that somehow stayed pristine!
Shop the look
Chloe
Puff-Sleeve Column Dress in Washed Silk Satin & Lace
If you’ve got the cash to splash, Jennifer’s exact dress is available to buy. The flowy frock is made from 100% silk, and there’s a tie back so you can adjust the fit.
Free People
Butterfly Babe Maxi Dress
I’ve had my eye on these Free People dresses for a while now, and coincidentally, the American clothing brand is one of Jennifer’s favourites. This one is available in several different colours and prints – polka dot just happens to be my top pick!
Ghost London
Lillie Lace Trim Satin Dress
Ghost’s designs are some of the best satin dresses you can buy, and I love the lace trim and V-neckline on this number. The peachy colour is a really chic choice for this time of year.
RIXO
Amari Satin Midi Dress
Regular woman&home readers will know I have a soft spot for Rixo, but this bronze dress is seriously beautiful. The British clothing brand is currently offering a rare site-wide 25% discount for Black Friday, so what are you waiting for?
Mejuri
Bold Pearl Drop Earrings in 18k Gold Vermeil
Black Friday is a great time to invest in jewellery, and it doesn’t get much more timeless than pearls. This is a brand with an A-list fan club, so snap them up ASAP.
Kurt Geiger London
Jewel Fringe Ankle Strap Sandal
If you want some footwear that’s as fabulous as Jennifer’s, you won’t find much better than these Kurt Geiger heels. Between the studs, the fringing and the pearls, everyone will believe you when you say they’re designer!
If you don’t feel super confident about wearing satin or silk, take it from someone who used to feel the same. First of all, the best shapewear is out there – not to minimise your figure, but to streamline it and boost your confidence by making your clothes fit better.
And secondly, think of a fluid dress like JLo’s as a beautiful base layer you can add texture to. I personally love wearing my satin maxi dress with a chunky jumper layered over the top, adding lace-up boots for even more of an edge.
A blazer and block heel shoes will do the job just as well for festive cocktails. This is also a great way to steer clear of feeling a bit like you’re leaving the house in just your nightie!
