What to Wear: Memorial Day Weekend

By Leave a Comment

For most of us Memorial Day is the unofficial start of summer and the official start of barbecue season. This weekend the parks will be packed, backyards filled, and the city over crowded with people celebrating Memorial Day.

My biggest dilemma is finding the perfect look appropriate for all of the craziness I will be partaking in this weekend. Do I want to rock a maxi dress, or a mini skirt? Shorts or skinny jeans? Flat sandals or a wedge?

Well with any day, not just a holiday, we want to look fly so here are some outfit inspirations for Memorial Day weekend.

You can never go wrong with a dress. They are quick and easy to throw on.  This weekend’s weather in NYC is supposed to be AMAZING, so a flirty summer dress is perfect. If you are going to a BBQ pair it with flat sandals or a wedge heel for a more relaxed look.

Try a crop top with a wide leg trouser jean, cut-off denim walking shorts, or skinny jeans for a trendy, yet polished look. You can layer the crop top with a tank or camisole if you do not want to bare all of the goodies!

Have some fun in a flirty skirt. Go for prints! Try a floral or tribal print skirt with a striped tank to mix and match. If you want to play it a little safe pair a printed skirt with a tank in one of the accent colors. Bodycons are also great. Show off your curves, but keep it a little classy with an over sized tee  or even a crop top with a tank underneath. Pair the skirt with some cute flat sandals or a ballet flat and you are good to go.

Citizens of Humanity, Anthropologie, Betsey Johnson

Try a pair of shorts or skinny jeans in bold colors, or leggings in floral prints or geometric designs. The new and improve Harem pant is also a great option. They give you the comfort of sweats but are more polished. You can also go for rompers and jumpsuits as well.

I hope this posts helps! Enjoy your Memorial Day weekend…in style of course 🙂
