We are all back from Thanksgiving break and struggling to remember that we actually had time off from school. As those turkey dinners are a distant memory, I'm reminded of all the delicious food when I look down at the cruel number next to my toes on the scale.

Never fear, fashion is the answer! It's the old saying, "If you look good, you feel good!". So here are a few easy wardrobe choices for when those leggings are a bit too tight.

1. Slip dress

You can't go wrong with a simple slip dress. Dress this classic piece up or down and layer it with a leather jacket, blazer or white shirt underneath. Add whatever accessories you want and pair it with some fun shoes!

2. Chunky sweaters

These sweaters are my favorite. They're a perfect must-have for the holiday season and your wardrobe. Wake up, throw on a chunky sweater, a pair of dark high waisted jeans, and some leather booties and you're good to go for the rest of the day.

3. Plaid, plaid and more plaid

Plaid is a great way to make any outfit fun and preppy. Wear a plaid, scarf, blazer, skirt, or even pants! It's a classic trend that makes anyone stand out.

4. Denin on denim

At first, I was intimidated by denim on denim. I didn't know if it looked like a "what not to wear" outfit. The more inspiration I got from celebrities, fashion ads and blogs, the more comfortable I got trying this trend. One tip I have for everyone is to pick different shades of blue for each denim piece you're wearing. This allows the outfit to have contrast. Finally, be confident!

5. Velvet booties

Velvet booties are my all time favorite trend right now. They add so much style to an outfit and I can't get enough of them. They can make your outfit pop and I've been wanting a pair ever since I saw them. These booties are elegant, trendy, and a showstopper.
