Look of the Day: Picnic at the Park

This Sunday my local park was bustling with people playing sports, walking the dogs, hanging with their offspring, and of course, taking time to indulge in a little picnic. Whether you partner up with your significant other or bring along a slew of pals, dressing for the occasion is half the fun. Keep it cool and casual in comfy flats, a basic T-shirt and long denim shorts (more comfy to sit in, plus they won’t pick up grass stains). Accessorize with colorful shades that protect your eyes, a chic headband to hold your hair back in the wind and a scarf/shawl to act as extra warmth in case the sun ducks behind the trees.
