It’s truly hard to believe that summer is winding down and fall is upon us.  BUT, thankfully we have one more long weekend to soak up all of the things we love most about the summer months.  Some of our favorite things in summer are sunshiny afternoons at the pool with the kiddos…  Grill-outs with yummy food and cocktails…  And just having that extra time to gather with those we love the most.  In preparation of the upcoming holiday weekend, we thought we would share some style inspiration with you guys for what to wear for Labor Day!

 

What To Wear For Labor Day

Labor Day weekend is the last long weekend of the summer months.  And it is usually filled with fun activities outdoors, get togethers with family and friends, and lots of good food and drinks.  Whether you are staying home to hang out at the pool, do some yard work, and grill out with neighbors…  Or traveling to the beach or the mountains for a fun get together with friends or family…  Here are some ideas for what to wear for Labor Day!

 

Labor Day By The Pool

For most of us, Labor Day weekend is the last weekend the pool is open for the summer.  So that means many of us are maximizing that time…  By pouring something a little extra delicious in our adult yetis…  And meeting up with friends at our neighborhood pools to soak up the last rays of summer, order some pizza, and just enjoy the slower vibe of a long weekend.  Our clients ask us all.the.time how to look put together – but also functional – at the pool.  In other words, they want to know how to look cute but not like they are trying too hard.  Guys, it is absolutely possible to achieve both!  In fact, this poolside look is a great example of how to do just that.

What To Wear For Labor Day In The Mountains

Maybe you are heading to the mountains and might be lucky enough to feel the first taste of early fall…  And enjoy some cooler evenings sitting around the fire with a glass of red wine.  This can be a tricky time of year to even think about fall clothes since it’s so warm outside still!  Put on your favorite pair of distressed denim and a white tee shirt.  Add a comfy pair of {cute} sneakers.  And then grab a shirt jacket from your closet like the one below for layering as the evening cools off!  Sidenote: yes shirt jackets are back in a big way this fall!

Labor Day Cookout With Neighbors

One of the fun things about a long weekend at home is the opportunity to gather with your neighbors over a delicious meal under the stars.  And many times, you will find yourself running in from the pool, yard work, or some other fun outdoor activity, and needing a quick shower and change before you throw your appetizer together.  That is when having a dress like this one is a lifesaver!  We always recommend that our clients have a simple summer dress in their closet to throw on for quick turnarounds.  You can spend a couple of minutes picking out some good accessories, and you are ready to go and looking as cute as can be!
