Save to PinterestFriendsgiving is relaxed, but it is still a dinner party: you will sit at a table, take photos and probably stay for hours. Aim for cozy clothes that look chosen rather than slept in.
In the example below, a grey hoodie, matching joggers and slides scored 67. Swapping to a cream cable-knit sweater, dark jeans and brown leather boots, with the same room and lighting, scored 85.
Knitwear, dark denim and real shoes do most of the work. Keep the comfort, swap the loungewear pieces one at a time, and pick warm neutrals that match the table and candles.
