what to wear: summer bbq

It’s ALREADY July (as if you didn’t need another reminder) and it’s that time of year when summer bbqs and get togethers with family and friends are happening more and more often.

Personally, I love summer clothes and creating outfits during the warm months, but a huge question that many people have is how do I look cute, stay cool and comfy all at the same time when going to casual bbqs and gatherings?

Don’t worry, this outfit should help give you some inspiration and a step in the right direction. Choose a basic item first, like these cute and comfortable cotton twill “Peace” shorts by Sanctuary, which come in many different colors.

Next, choose a fun summery, printed top. This top by Aryn K. has a great tribal/Aztec feel. Add some flats that you can play around in all day like these Steve Madden pair.

Lastly, pull your outfit together with some accessories that compliment the outfit. This pyramid gold and snake necklace by Hive & Honey is perfect. Add some over-sized shades by Balenciaga and top it off with a Brixton fedora.
