Accessorizing summer dresses can be a fun way to add personal style and make the dress more suitable for different occasions. Here’s how to accessorize:

  1. Jewelry: Add a statement necklace or earrings to dress up the outfit.
  2. Sunglasses: Protect your eyes and complete the look with a stylish pair of sunglasses.
  3. Shoes: Choose shoes that complement the dress, such as sandals or espadrilles for a casual look, or heels for a more formal occasion.
  4. Handbags: A handbag can add practicality and a pop of color. Choose a clutch for a dressy look or a cross body for a more casual one.
  5. Scarves: A scarf can add an extra layer of interest and can be used as a head wrap, necktie, or belt.

Remember, the key to accessorizing is to keep it simple and not to overdo it, so choose one or two statement pieces and let them do the talking.

A kimono outfit for a golf tournament can be a unique and stylish option as well, as long as it meets the dress code requirements. Here’s how to put together a kimono outfit:

  1. Kimono: Choose a lightweight and breathable kimono made from a natural fabric like cotton or linen. Opt for a neutral or pastel color, and avoid loud prints or bold patterns.
  2. Top: Wear a solid-colored, collared shirt or a tank top underneath the kimono. Choose a neutral color like white, beige, or black.
  3. Bottoms: Wear a pair of pallazo pants or cropped pants that are comfortable and appropriate for golfing. Avoid anything too short or tight.
  4. Shoes: Choose comfortable and practical golf shoes or sneakers.
  5. Accessories: Add a sun hat and sunglasses to protect from the sun. A simple, small handbag can be added for practicality.
