Thanksgiving is a time for gathering with loved ones, indulging in delicious food, and giving thanks for the blessings in our lives. It’s also the perfect occasion to showcase your unique sense of style. If you’re looking to add an extra layer of charm and sophistication to your celebrations, make this the year you coordinate your Thanksgiving outfit with your holiday tablescape

Picture the scene: your guests arrive, marvel at your beautiful tablescape, and there you are—your own centerpiece. Let’s explore how you can achieve a harmonious and stylish look by focusing on the details—particularly fall and Thanksgiving-inspired jewelry.

Bromberg’s Guide to Thanksgiving Style

Thanksgiving Outfit Ideas

Before we dive into the jewelry, let’s consider outfit ideas. Fall is all about warm and cozy colors like deep reds, burnt oranges, and earthy browns. To create a Thanksgiving look that complements your tablescape, consider these outfit ideas.

Classic Sweater Dress

A cozy sweater dress in autumnal shades is both comfortable and stylish if you dress it up thoughtfully. If we’re lucky enough to get a crisp Thanksgiving here in Birmingham, you can pair it with leggings or tights and complete your look with knee-high boots.

Maxi Skirt and Blouse

A flowing maxi skirt with a long-sleeved blouse in rich fall colors exudes elegance. Add a belt to cinch your waist and create a flattering silhouette.

Turtleneck and Slacks

Opt for a classic turtleneck sweater with tailored slacks for a more polished and sophisticated appearance. Finish the look with heeled ankle boots.

Thanksgiving Tablescape Inspiration

Now, let’s move on to your Thanksgiving tablescape—the canvas for your seasonal creativity. Create a warm and inviting atmosphere by incorporating these elements into your holiday décor!

Mix-and-Match Tableware, Dinnerware, & Glassware Patterns

This year, we’re all about mixing and matching fall tablescape patterns within our favorite collections: Juliska, Herend, Vietri, and more. The possibilities are truly endless when you think about how to elevate your favorite fall patterns. You can bring new life to perennial favorites by bringing in new pieces, telling a story unique to your family. Check out our guide to mix-and-match tablescapes!

Autumnal Centerpieces

Gather fall leaves, gourds, and pumpkins to create a stunning centerpiece for your table. Add candles for a cozy touch.

Seasonal Place Settings

Use rustic-themed tableware with warm-toned napkins and placemats. A combination of traditional and modern elements can make your table setting truly unique.

Dried Flower Arrangements

Dried flowers, like sunflowers and eucalyptus, can add a touch of rustic elegance to your tablescape. Incorporate these into your décor for a timeless look.

Thanksgiving Jewelry Ideas

Now, the pièce de résistance—your jewelry! To harmonize your Thanksgiving outfit with your tablescape, consider these jewelry ideas.

The Best Gemstones for Fall

There may be a case to be made for any gemstone color in the fall—it’s all about how you pair it, accent it, and wear it. Bromberg’s has the fortune this year of having many earth tones available in-store, which makes now the perfect opportunity to find the perfect piece for your Thanksgiving outfit.

Our top picks for autumn gemstones are:

  • Citrine: This beautiful, semi-precious gemstone belongs to the quartz family. It’s known for its stunning yellow to golden-brown hues, often resembling the warm and vibrant colors of autumn.
  • Topaz: Topaz is a precious gemstone known for its wide range of colors, with the most common shades being blue, yellow, and brown. Darker topaz tones are ideal for this time of year.
  • Opal: October’s birthstone, opals are multifaceted beauties that spark in prismatic color. We especially love a fire opal this time of year—it’s a beauty that truly must be seen to be believed.
  • Emerald: We often focus solely on warm colors this time of year, but emerald’s rich, earthy green can work wonders in a fall table setting.
  • Garnet & Ruby: Both of these precious stones hold autumnal reds—vibrant leaf-reds and deep wine hues can both play nicely with any Thanksgiving outfit.
  • Yellow Diamond: Also known as canary diamonds, these stones are highly prized for their vivid and intense yellow coloration.

Fall-Inspired Earrings

Opt for earrings that feature autumnal elements like leaves, acorns, or—our current favorite— feathers. The delicate details of this 2.34-carat diamond feather earring set can tie your look together while still making a grand statement.

Shop the Look: You can find these beauties in 18K yellow gold at our Mountain Brook store (if someone else hasn’t already scooped them up first!). We also have a white gold 1.71-carat pair at our Summit store. Call ahead to inquire!

Statement Necklaces

A bold statement necklace can add a touch of glamor to your ensemble. Look for pieces with warm gemstones like citrine or amber to capture the essence of fall. Or, make a statement with a bright pop of turquoise, the perfect complementary color to many of the golden, bronze, and other warm metallic tones of fall. These Jude Frances Moroccan pieces make the perfect example!

Stackable Bracelets

Stackable bracelets in warm hues, such as earthy tones and deep reds, can complement your outfit beautifully. David Yurman’s iconic Sculpted Cable bangles are the perfect place to begin layering, from rose gold and diamond to silver and citrine, the combinations are endless!

Cufflinks, Bow Ties, & Tie Pins

If you’re a man looking to coordinate your attire with the tablescape, consider rustic cufflinks or tie pins featuring subtle fall motifs. Though subtlety is the name of the game, that certainly doesn’t have to mean boring. We love this hand-crafted Brackish Greene Bow Tie, featuring peacock and pheasant feathers. Or, let the shifting tones of labradorite of these William Henry cuff links give your look that autumn-afternoon touch it needs!
