How to Dress Country Club Casual
Dressing for a country club can be intimidating. Sometimes the best way to dress is to just be casual and enjoy your evening at the country club. Whether you are a man or a woman dressing casual can be fun. Dressing casual will also allow you to feel more accepted into the atmosphere.
- Look in your closet to see what you are working with. You will most likely be able to find something to wear without the expense of buying a new outfit.
- Avoid wearing dressy clothes even if you want to. This includes leaving the ties and dress shoes in the closet and sticking to casual clothing. Casual clothing includes khakis and button-up shirts; avoid suits and formal wear.
- Call and ask your friends what they are wearing. You may feel more comfortable if you know what your friends are wearing. Make them feel more comfortable by telling them what you are wearing. Sharing ideas for casual clothing will help you both pick the perfect outfit for the country club.
- Wear matching clothes to avoid looking awkward. Matching clothes are your best bet in dressing casual. For example: A tan pair of pants with a casual button-up shirt and a pair of nice loafers. Again, avoid the tie because that is too dressy for a casual situation.
- Choose clothes that will accentuate your best features. Do not choose clothes that are too clingy or inappropriate.
- Pay attention to the time of day in which you will be attending the country club. It may be more appropriate to wear a dressier pair of slacks if attending a dinner after six. Women can still dress casual while wearing a jean skirt, if the event happens to go late into the evening.
