With Thanksgiving around the corner, the Draper James team, behind Reese Witherspoon's adorable clothing line, asked me to give my tips on what to wear to dinner—you know, the annual meal where you stuff yourself silly and then take a whole bunch of family photos?

One of the things I'm most excited about in the new house is having a formal dining room. In Manhattan and our current apartment, we have a small kitchen table that I try to dress up but it doesn't compare to a real dining room whose full purpose is to be a beautiful space for eating.

I'm a little late jumping on the cape trend but this reversible plaid one called my name and I couldn't hold out anymore! Plus it was under $50 so I basically had no choice.

I drink a lot of tea. I start my day with green tea and end it with chamomile, all year long even in the heat of the summer, so I love and appreciate all tea paraphernalia. Loose leaf teas and tea gifts are the perfect gift (for me, if anyone is asking) and a great way to help friends and family create a tea ritual that can last a lifetime.
(Don't worry, we also bought a leaf blower)
