Summer picnics present the perfect opportunity to enjoy the great outdoors, relish delicious food, and spend quality time with friends and family. Whether you're headed to the beach, a park, or your own backyard, dressing appropriately can enhance your experience and keep you comfortable. Here’s a fun guide on what to wear to your next summer picnic, featuring some fun items from BeltOutlet.

Stay Cool with a Classic Hat

Our Scala Women's Elisa Floppy Sun Hat protects you from the sun, and also adds a stylish touch to your outfit. Made of 100% Toyo straw, this hat features a wide brim and UPF 50+ protection, perfect for shielding your face from the sun’s rays. You can also consider pairing your ensemble with the Sportsman Cotton Twill Packable Travel Bucket Hat for added sun protection. This machine washable hat features a 2-inch brim and excellent breathability, making it perfect for any outdoor activity. They are two of many options you’ll find in our collection of hats for men, women, and children.

Comfortable and Stylish Tops

Opt for lightweight, breathable fabrics to stay cool. If you’re looking for a fun vibe, choose from the selection of women's tank tops and men's t-shirts that are perfect mix of soft and comfortable fabric. 

Practical Bottoms

Whether you’re kicking back with family or embarking on picnic games at the park, women's shorts or lightweight pants made of breathable materials will help keep you comfortable. Our men’s athletic wear section offers a number of great options for the guys, including many in big and tall sizes.

Functional and Fun Bags

Select a spacious bag, like our Women's Weekender White Tote Bag, to carry all your picnic essentials.

Patriotic Accessories

Why just show off your American pride on July 4th? The summer months are a great time to show your pride with some patriotic accessories. American flag suspenders or American belt buckles can add a festive touch to your picnic outfit, or add a more subtle yet stylish detail to any outfit with the American flag handkerchief.

Footwear for Comfort

From sand to hiking paths to city sidewalks, summer adventures involve all types of terrain. Choose comfortable shoes that won’t slow you down, like sneakers, sandals, or casual loafers. Make sure you test and break in your favorite shoes ahead of time to avoid any discomfort during your picnic activities.

Stay Hydrated and Protected

Finally, don’t forget to bring along a water bottle to stay hydrated, and sunscreen to protect your exposed skin. A comfortable, stylish outfit combined with these essentials will ensure you have a fantastic time at your summer picnic.
