Picnic Wear

July 4th is the official picnic day of the year!  Everyone gathers together throws “stuff” on the grill and overall enjoy each other for the afternoon.  But what to wear?  Skip the stilettos to avoid sinking into the grass and instead try a fashionable wedge for height.  If you can forgo the heels for a day stick with flats – either ballet round toes or a slip on sandal.  The following are some ensembles that are sure to steal the show when you show up to your outdoor soiree.

The safari dress featured to the far left is found at Forever21.com and comes in at $28.00 while the strappy wedge sandal can be purchased at revolveclothing.com by Report Signature for $83.00.  Accessorize your jungle-y look with nature inspired colors and materials like feather earrings ($3.80 – forever21.com) and a sweet leather cuff bracelet found at lulus.com.

I also love shorts for a summer event.  When I found these ABSOLUTELY adorable ruffled be-boppers I almost fainted!  Who could resist the pseudo skirt look that is both dressed up and casual since done in a rough and tough chambray.  Pair your favorite new “skorts” with a white top that gets extra attention with an oversized bow and playful buttons, hoop earrings with bows and a playful flat shoe printed with girly flowers and secured around the ankle with a skinny strap. 

Where to shop this look?  Lulus.com:

Top: $35.00

Skort: $32.00

Earrings: $10.00

Shoes: $42.00
