WHAT TO WEAR TO A BBQ

 Summer has officially hit the UK! We’ve been having such gorgeous weather lately and here at Lavish Alice we’ve been wondering how you lovely lot have been making the most of it. More importantly, have you been invited to any BBQ’s yet? We hope so! Who doesn’t love basking in the hot UK sunshine with a fruit cider in one hand and a delicious burger in the other, in the company of friends and good music?

When we think of BBQ’s the first thing that springs to mind of course is the Fourth of July Weekend, a national holiday where millions of Americans will gather around outdoor pits to cook meaty, patriotic dishes with their close friends and loved ones.

Here in the UK it has become something of a Bank Holiday tradition to hold a BBQ in our back garden, the first hint of sun and we’re optimistically dragging out the barbeque grill from our garden shed and sending the other half off to the butchers. But amidst frantically scrubbing down the grill, making sure there is enough food and drink for everyone and keeping our fingers crossed for no rain, we girls have another VERY IMPORTANT thing to consider, what on earth do we wear??

It is the perfect opportunity to get out that summer outfit that has been hiding in the wardrobe waiting for the sun to appear, and we have some great options here at Lavish Alice that will provide both style and comfort (because we know we have eyes bigger than our belly at first smell of all that scrumptious food!).

The co-ord is big news this summer season, matching sets are super cute, massively on-trend and luckily for you we have the perfect combination for your summer BBQ. The Cream and Coral Contrast Boucle Top with co-ordinating Cream and Coral Contrast Boucle Shorts set is a sleek, chic and comfortable choice for those of you running around attending to your guests but still wanting to stay ahead of trends at the same time. Team with a pair of our oversized sunglasses and the White Strapped Chunky Heel Sandals and you’re good to go!

For those of you who have been invited to a BBQ and don’t have the task of sweating over a smoking grill (lucky you!) we have something a little more smart, the Powder Blue Cropped Mini Dress incorporates both the colour and dress shape of the season. Sugary sweet pastels are taking over this summer and we couldn’t be happier about it!

Now go and enjoy getting together with all of your favourite people in true summer style (and don’t forget to save us a hotdog!)
