Football season is here again, hallelujah! I’ve been impatiently waiting to bust out my game day dresses once more! Football game attire varies, but if you’re from the south or go to a southern college, game days are days the you dress up and curl your hair. Tailgating from early afternoon will keep you entertained before the game, and there will be plenty of photo opportunities. Play corn hole with the fraternity boys and chat with your friends while you look effortlessly stylish in your school color coordinated sundresses.
Personally, I’m more of a casual dresser when it comes to game day. I’m constantly walking around and visiting with people, seeing family, and walking all around campus. I’ve put together one casual outfit, and four formal outfits. I do go formal for homecoming, I mean it is HOMECOMING. As for hair, think about the weather. If it’s humid, straight hair might not be your best choice. Always bring a rain jacket if there’s even a slight chance of rain. No one has fun if you’re soaked. If you’re confident wearing heels, go for it. If you’re not, DON’T DO IT. I’ve seen a few girls topple off their extremely cute heels because they couldn’t walk in them. There are plenty of cute shoes to wear instead of heels, Jack Rogers and wedges are great alternatives. Check with your school’s stadium security policy before you carry your purse in, sometimes they allow small bags, sometimes just clutches. Bring the basics. Lipstick, gum, aspirin, phone, I.D., and money. Keep it simple. I always carry a cross-body bag because it’s so much easier to keep up with. That’s it really, just don’t forget your shaker and sun glasses.
Whether you’re yelling Roll Tide, War Eagle, or Hail State, or sitting ‘Between the Hedges’ screaming ‘How ’bout them Georgia Bulldogs?’ have a fabulous day watching your favorite team charge up and down the field. As for me, How ’bout them Georgia Bulldogs? 😉
