It’s finally May and that means that Memorial Day weekend is just around the corner as are the longer days of summer! Adrian’s already fired up the grill a few times this season and I thought it’d be fun to do a little al fresco dining with a backyard picnic! I snapped these photos before we got started and am excited to share a few outfit ideas that would be perfect for your next outdoor picnic/get-together!
What to Wear to a Picnic Styling Picks:
1. Find a Cute Sundress
Sundresses are my go-to when the weather warms up and they’re just a trademark of outdoor picnics in my opion! I’m in love with this pretty little number from Amazon and can’t even believe how affordable and versatile it is! I’ve worn it both on its own countless times and as a swim coverup on several occasions when I was in Hawaii. The floral print is absolutely gorgeous yet the boho style gives it that playful vibe and keeps it from looking too dressed up. I personally love the wrap style as it’s super flattering for creating and enhancing those curves but there are non-wrap and strappy options for this dress as well!
Other favorites include this gorgeous sunflower dress and this cute gingham dress too!

2. It’s All In The Accessories
Accessories always make the outfit! Whether it’s a flirty headband, a chic hat, or a pair of statement earrings, make sure you finish off that look with a little somethin’! I stocked up on headbands recently and personally think they’re the perfect addition for that casual summer picnic vibe (plus there’s no learning curve when it comes to styling!).
HEADBANDS
Hats are another sunny weather must-have and I strongly believe that having at least a couple are a necessity! I love a straw hat for the summertime and it’s a style that pairs with just about every outfit too. If you’re traveling for the summer, this one and this one are both packable!

3. Don’t Forget Your Feet
Trade in your flip flops this season for a chic pair of slides! Just as easy to slip on hands-free but just a touch more elevated, be sure to wear some cute shoe-wear that are easy to take on / off as you enjoy some picnic time!
