Barbecues are everyone's favorite summer pastime. Who doesn't love relaxing on an outdoor deck with some friends, blasting music, and eating delicious food? With the exception of grilling burgers, the hardest part about hosting or attending a summer barbecue is what to wear- after all, it is outdoors.
This Fashionisto is wearing the absolute perfect summer barbecue attire. It is hard to pick a "best part" about this outfit because it all goes together so well, but the shirt takes the win. The first thing that comes to mind when thinking of a denim shirt is something really rugged and husky, but that is certainly not the case when looking at this Fashionisto. Accompanying the shirt with some clean-cut shorts and loafers is what makes this look fun enough for a summer get-together.
Don't think this look is exclusive for boys, either. Although it may be hard to find a masculine shirt like this better fitted for a girl, a smaller size would be fine too. Again, what makes the shirt really work is what you wear it with. On a girl, an oversized denim button-down over a darker pair of shorts or pants would be just as perfect.
This Cambric shirt by 7 for All Mankind gives the denim-appearance while still being lightweight. Less pricy options can be found at Billabong in both lighter and darker washes.
This week, have a barbecue! Summer goes by fast and you will definitely regret not squeezing one in while you could. So invite some friends over, put on some laid back music, and eat scruptious food. Just make sure you don't spill ketchup on your new denim shirt, please. Have a great week!
