WHAT TO WEAR TO A BBQ

 

Summer is here and if you aren’t attending or hosting a BBQ, what are you even doing with your summer?

 

Outdoor grill sessions are all part of this sunny season and when it comes to figuring out what to wear, the options are pretty much endless. To make sure you bag that best-dressed title, we’ve scrolled through our site for the best BBQ friendly but next level looks.

 

Whether you’re sipping Pimms or making your way through your third burger, keep scrolling for our top 5 summer BBQ outfits.

 

BBQ Beachin’

Opt for a lightweight linen co-ord, made with humid summer evenings in mind!

A oversized beach shirt will be perfect, especially if you want to take a late night dip.

Style with trending sandals and sunglasses for a next level look. Don’t forget your oversized tote bag too!

Campside Style

Whether you’re heading to a campsite or besties back garden, a classic oversized look will never let you down.

Keep your look minimal with all black or add a pop of colour for summer feels.

We’re loving this muted texture look with all black deets and clashing bralette for back garden vibes.

If BBQing at a campsite, opt for a oversized hoodie. Not only stylish AF but cosy too!

Wear with the matching shorts for a PLT approved ‘fit.

Black Tie BBQ

The struggle of what to wear to a fancy garden party is real.

You want to be cool and look the best but now you’re just wishing you were never invited in the first place.

Luckily, the go-to corset and wide trouser combo will have you feeling glad that you RSVP’d yes.

Just add grass-proof wedges or heels to finish off the look.

Sports Ready

Playing sports at a BBQ is like texting your ex on a night out, it’s bound to happen. Once everyone’s fed and had a few drinks it leads onto a weird barefoot gym sesh/sports day.

So, make sure you’re ready for any sporty antics with an off-duty vibe that’s guaranteed to have you covered no matter the agenda!

We are obsessed with this bright and bold outfit. Such a look.

Go-to Cargo Trousers

Cargo trousers are a true gamechanger when it comes to must-have wardrobe essentials.

Whilst BBQ days might start out in the sunshine, we all know (especially in the UK) the temperature can drop instantly!

Prep for whatever weather with all essential cargos. Wear with cute crop top and oversized jacket that you can throw on over your shoulders come the evening.
