What to Wear

Knowing what to wear can be daunting. It’s a good idea to start early in case you want to purchase new clothes, or shoes!

Good to know

• NO LOGOS
• No “matching” outfits {ex: white shirt / blue jeans for everyone – this will get passersby confused: is it the 80s all over again? }
• Avoid single tone palettes (everyone in orange and red; or blue and green)

General

• Choose solid colors first
• Then add patterns, stripes and dots and POPS of color
• Scarfs, hats, beads, bracelets, rings, necklaces… oh my!
• LAYERING (jackets, open sweaters, vests…)
• Makeup/manicure/pedicure/haircut highly recommended

Help! Where do I start?

• START with one parent – What does he/she want to wear? What strikes their fancy?
• Everyone else will wear colors that complement that ONE parent’s choice
• Wear comfortable clothes (no ties or tight dresses, itchy sweaters or headbands that leave marks)
• Comfortable clothes help people to relax at all ages…
