Art in The Park

A favorite summertime trip for us is driving up into the mountains and spending the day in Blowing Rock, North Carolina. This was one of the Art in the Park event weekends.




I wore white ankle pants and a white tank top from Stein Mart. The shawl scarf is from Chico's last year. I received many compliments on it. 



These smartly dressed women from Winston-Salem stopped me in the park to ask me where I found the scarf. It was so much fun chatting with them! 

Later in the day Mr. Mickey and I stopped by the Shops on the Parkway so that I could visit the Chico's outlet. The ladies also came in while we were there. They were looking for a similar scarf so we got to visit again.



You will always find me checking out the jewelry at art events!


The event was even larger than in past years.


I just had to show you a picture of Mr. Mickey's snazzy new summer shoes. Aren't they the cat's meow?
 


Tip for warm weather event dressing: Wear light colors with a sheer blouse, scarf, or tunic for a bit of coverage and colorful style. Of course, sunglasses are a must. These are by Vera Wang from Kohl's. The bag is from Stein Mart and the shoes are by Adrienne Vittadini from T.J.Maxx last year.

  1. What a fabulous scarf and a gorgeous color on you! I can understand why the ladies were looking for a similar scarf. Would a scarf like that be too overwhelming on a 5' gal? Mr. Mickey IS the cat's meow! ;-)

  8. I LOOOOVE that scark! I will have to get to the outfit. I STILL haven't found ankle panys. I envy you being able to wear heels all day shopping. Kitten heels are all I can do.
