Ah, the company picnic. An obligatory event that eats up your Saturday and forces you to see quirky (creepy) co-workers outside their normal habitat most likely donning inappropriate or outright dorky attire. But since you have to go, arrive looking casual, conservative, and of course, stylish.
A pair of solid bermudas are a safe option as your boss may force you to participate in a wiffle ball game or a three-legged race, and that sundress you considered would prove too risky. Wear with a lightweight, loose-fitting blouse that you can tuck in. Add a belt to look more pulled together, and slip on some colorful wedges instead of too-casual flip-flops.
Store your camera (joking – as if you’d want to remember the day) in a structured, classy straw tote and don’t forget your shades to hide those rolling eyes. Have fun!

I love all of the sarcasm in this post. Hilarious. I suppose even when doing something that we dont want to do, we can at least look good while doing it! I love the idea of wearing wedges; they show that you have great taste but are somewhat casual and somewhat dressy. Sunglasses are a must!!
