what to wear for the home & garden tour

The Newport Harbor Home and Garden Tour is  coming up in two weeks, so a few of my friends and I are already thinking about what to wear. Comfortably cute outfits are a must!  Also, high heels and hand bags are not allowed in the homes, so those are two more things to consider when planning our look! Flats, sandals or wedges are perfect footwear for touring, as there will be a bit of walking to be done.  Here are a few looks from last year.

Colorful looks seen at the Barclay Butera afterparty.

This year....

Cynthia

After a visit to Heather's new closet, the girls and I put together some fun fahion looks for this year's home tour.  Cynthia, is a Stella & Dot stylist, so she has the luxury of having great accessories available at her fingertips.  This is the outfit she put together, an all white look set off by colorful jewelry and extras.  

  Purses are not allowed to be brought into the houses, but 

they are handy at the breakfast reception, luncheon and afterparty.

A great option is the tech wallet, pictured above.  It's great for holding your cell phone and car key, and has a handy wrist strap.  I just ordered mine in leopard!  It's perfect for the home tour.

Renee's look is girly and chic. This blue and white CAbi shirt dress is so comfortable, and I love how she used complimentary orange accessories to make the colors really pop! Wedges are a great option for the day.  They don't cause any damage to floors, and they are super cute!
