what to wear to watch footballThis weekend is all about the Rose Bowl and the Sugar Bowl.  This means most of my guys friends and boyfriend will be glued to the television screen at the local bar watching East Carolina take on Florida today and Toledo take on Arkansas State tomorrow.  Instead of sitting at home by my lonesome, I will be joining them for an afternoon of beer, wings and sports.  What is a girl to wear? Something none fussy of course.

Instead of my normal dress or skirt and top combo, I am going to opt for skinny jeans and a long sleeve tee – perfect for wing eating.  Thanks to brands like Spanx and Lane Bryant, curvier ladies can also rock a good skinny jean.  Add a loose top and a trench and you’re good to go.  For all day comfort, skip the heels and instead rock those old Converse sneakers in your closet.  A faux fur stole (see more here) or a chunky scarf tossed over a trench will add an extra layer of protection against the cold.  Don’t forget those accessories but remember to KISS (keep it stylishly simple).

Side Braid

To complement my game day outfit, I keep my hair very simple with a lose side braid that can be pinned later if we decide to make a night of it.  The style above is my easy go-to because it requires minimal effort but looks very glamorous.  Leave a comment if you want a video tutorial of this hair style.  For my makeup, I keep it dewy with groomed brows that are not overly accentuated, a sheer cream shadow and a pop of color on my lips.
