What Nana’s Wearing To Summer Events
Summer is by far my favourite season. If I could wear summer clothes all year round, I would. As event season ramps up, I love to make mini moodboards on my iPad for each occasion. It also gives me the chance to pull out some old classics from my wardrobe and see how I can rework them to make them feel modern and relevant. For a bit of inspo, I’ve broken down some of the events I’m planning to attend this season – including a holiday I’m excited about – so you can see how I plan for every occasion.
Wimbledon
Wimbledon is one of those summer events that I just love to attend every year. For me, it’s only right to go for an all-white look – in keeping with the tennis-core vibes which feel even more relevant post-Challengers.
All Points East
I love a London festival because it means I don’t have to travel far to hear great music. Comfort is key as it’s a long day that will involve a lot of walking around Victoria Park. A denim playsuit is a failsafe – not forgetting a bomber jacket for when the temperature drops in the evening.
Christening
For such a joyous occasion, it’s time to get out my Sunday best. A pop of colour is an instant mood boost, and a tailored suit is a great alternative to a dress.
The Hamptons
I’m off to The Hamptons next month and I’ve been briefed by friends that they plan on hitting up some of the bougee bars and a sunset beach party. A floaty maxi dress, sandals and sunnies is my formula for understated glamour.
Black-Tie Wedding
I never need an excuse to get really dressed up, but a black-tie wedding is a legitimate reason to go all out. I’m planning on a statement dress and killer heels, teamed with a beautiful clutch and accessories.
Summer Garden Party
I’m currently in the process of doing a bathroom and kitchen renovation in my flat. It will be done at the end of summer and one of the first things I’ll be doing is throwing a garden party. This embroidered co-ord is the perfect choice.
