It’s invitation season, which means confusing dress codes are inevitable. One of the more impossible dress codes mandate is country club casual, which seems to suggest to wear something golf course appropriate. Don’t. Instead, for a country club casual event during the day, stick to a simple sundress, without loud prints. If it’s an evening party, think conservative cocktail. (No cleavage, no studs, no mini skirts.) Here are two outfits that will help you fit right in:
This
Since country club casual means dressy, but more conservative, we suggest you bring along this
Gap Silk-Trimmed cardigan ($49.50) just in case. This lightweight cardigan has a slim fit, and pretty silk trim makes it more feminine and dressy.
Leave your gladiator sandals at home for a country club casual event, and wear something subtle, yet cute, like these
Nine West Women’s Gleamy sandals ($49.50). The cork heel will be comfy for your feet while you’re mingling.
For night, stick with a conservative cocktail dress like this
Since this dress has a lot of details at the neck, skip a necklace and wear earrings, like these
Kenneth Jay Lane Pearl Filigree Drop earrings ($61.60).
Stick with a simple shoe like these
Kenneth Cole Reaction Lush Life Sandals ($59.99). The champagne color will go well with your new mocha dress and the embellishment on the shoe is subtle, not tacky.
