Fresh, fun fashion for tailgating in style.

Tailgating season is fast approaching, and that means thoughts will soon turn to what to wear. It’s easy to slip on a T-shirt representing a college or sports team for those much-anticipated games, but we’re all for taking tailgating and game day attire in a more stylish but still easy, fun and cool direction.

That translates to adding on-trend accessories, details and looks such as cowboy boots, puff-sleeve blouses, cut-outs, bralettes and bra tops, chunky sneakers, flare jeans, checks, bucket hats, Bermuda shorts, halter tops, miniskirts and frayed-hem denim shorts. Make sure a favorite sports team’s color is in the mix, and you’re ready for game time.

While tailgating usually takes place in parking lots close to a stadium or arena, those without tickets can make it happen almost anywhere as long as there’s a television. Let’s make that a big-screen television. Invite a few friends over for a more intimate watch party on the backyard patio if weather permits, or gather dozens of friends and like-minded sports fans at a mutually convenient site for a tailgate-style party before the game.

Let the cheering begin.
