UPDATE: Since the Fourth of July is the most 'merican of all holidays, we know you've got a crazy lineup of BBQs to hit up this week. So, here's a little wardrobe inspo to get you through the festivities. This story was originally published on May 28.
Nothing says summer quite like a barbecue. (Okay, we're totally not counting anything in the clothing department, here). Whether you grill in your backyard (lucky!), on your rooftop deck, or precariously perched on your fire escape, a lil' cookout is the perfect warm-weather treat.
Getting together with the crew, cold brewskis, and those just-off-the-grill hot dogs are the real great American pastime. While you probably (maybe? hopefully?) have your summer wardrobe all set already, we're here to help you put together the Perfect Outfit for the party of parties. You could go casual with a T-shirt and cutoffs, but why not turn it up a notch? Get inspired by Roberta, our so-cute street-style crush, and wow your fellow BBQ-ers with a fun-and-flirty skirt and a pair of funky flats. We're betting you'll feel hotter than that grill.
Carven Printed Cotton-Voile Skirt, $340, available at Net-a-Porter; Clinique Super City Block Oil-Free Daily Face Protector SPF 40, $19, available at Sephora; Anthropologie Braided Brights Bracelet, $18, available at Anthropologie; Woolrich Women's Chambray Shirt, $59, available at Woolrich; Rag & Bone Lara Flat Sandals, $227.50, available at Shopbop.
