Don’t we all love barbecues during the warm months of spring and summer?  Laid back, fun and casual get-togethers where we are relaxing, enjoying the sun, playing games, sharing with friends, and partaking of good food and drink.  We hate to say goodbye to these good times when summer nears the end.  Age doesn’t matter because we all want to have fun!

At these gatherings, the casual vibe rules.  Get comfortable in clothes that are light and cool, and maybe jeans.  Instead of wearing heels that might sink into the ground, try platform shoes, wedge sandals, espadrilles, metallic sneakers or some pretty flats.  You might want to take a lightweight bomber jacket, jean jacket or other casual topper in case it gets cool as the sun goes down.

So, what to wear?  Something cool and casual that still manages to look pretty, right?  Take a look at the following suggestions.  You may already have them, or maybe you’d like to add some new pieces for the summer or to take advantage of end of summer sales, depending on what time of year you are reading this…

With all that in mind, I have some outfit ideas that might help you add a little variety to your usual casual style.  These outfit ideas can be handy, too, when you’re running out the door on a busy day and feel like you don’t have a thing to wear.  You don’t even have to think, you can just refer to this list.  🙂

What Does Your Favorite Color Say About You?

Zoe quote on clouds
From WORDSONIMAGES

We can all admit that color sets a mood.  Each of us has our favorite color, which may have changed during our lifetime.  And each of us has our own natural coloring we were born with that causes us to look better in some colors than in others.

In “Color Therapy” by Madisyn Taylor” on the Daily Om, she writes that often the colors we like best are the colors we need most in our lives.

Happily, we usually naturally gravitate toward preferring colors that look good on us.  Age doesn’t matter when we wear our favorite, best colors.  Because what matters is who we are.
