Fashion Friday: Summer BBQ

To quote Alice Cooper, "School's out for Summer!" meaning barbecue season has officially begun! When else can you combine delicious food, drinks, music, beautiful weather, fun and games all at one event? Whether you're the one hosting the BBQ or a guest at someone's get together, you should remember that cookouts are technically low key affairs so it's important to sport an ensemble that is put together but not over the top. A casual dress is always a good option, and one that lets you wear a bathing suit underneath is even better (in case you decide to take a dip in the pool or lake). A big, Mary Poppins style tote is your best friend at these events because it allows you to pack every possible thing you'll need: sunnies, a hat, a towel, sunscreen, etc. You'll also want to wear comfortable flats or sandals - heels are a no-no for obvious reasons. Lastly, a simple, dainty necklace like our Small Honey Petals Necklace is the perfect finishing touch to a BBQ get up (just remember to take your jewelry off if you go in the pool).
