The Art of Accessories: Golf Style

I absolutely love an empire waist cotton dress in the summertime. They’re light and don’t stick to you on a hot day, plus whenever you put on a dress you ultimately look more put together (or at least that’s how I feel). So when I start finding cute golf dresses like the Three Tees Golf Dress from Bella Golf Wear I get super excited.

Things that I love about this dress. It has an empire waist. The color is super saturated and vivid (great with your summer tan) which I absolute love. And, it has two very big pockets to put balls and tees in.

Add a cute little white (or yellow) cap and you’re good to go! This may need to be added to my golf wardrobe…August sure does get hot and I’ve got to stay cool and be cute.

I play a lot of golf with men. My husband and his friends. I just don’t have that many women in my life that play golf and I’m not playing in a league this summer so my female interaction on the course is pretty much at zero. Even though there isn’t a lot of estrogen surrounding me, I still like to feel pretty when I play. One of the few feminine options for the course are skorts. I know, the word skort makes me think of the 6th grade but skorts are really functional for play. Shorts underneath and a skirt on top with pockets for ball and tees.

My choice for a skort today is the Liz Claiborne Faux Wrap Golf Skort. I like this colorful leaf print pattern and it’s giving me the feeling of wearing a wrap skirt with it’s faux wrap. It’s all about the little details that make it special.

Wearing something like this, the fellas definitely can’t mistake me for just one of the guys.

I like to talk trash sometimes…okay, a lot. I do. It’s just part of my competitive nature. I’m a good sport when I lose though. Since I’m known to talk trash, my husband indulges me with what I refer to as sh*t talk t-shirts. My latest shirt is really a boys football shirt, but I like to think it can refer to how well I hit my driver (currently I’m up to 100 mph swing speed and hitting 200 yards or a little more…not bad!).

The Nike “I Crush” Boys T-shirt says it all, “I crush, therefore I am.” I am soooo wearing this to the range.

Nuff said.

Something about the Jamie Saddock Women’s Sleeveless Cotton Polo makes me think of a tornado. Maybe it’s the graphic circles across the polo mixed with my desire to suddenly become a female Tiger Woods every time I play and take everyone by storm! I know, I know…I dream very big.

So if I can’t be a whirling tornado of a player, why not at least dress the part? With this cool and breezy short sleeve polo made of wick away material (Don’t you just love that stuff? What did we wear before that?) at least you’ll feel the breezes on the course blow through you. So that is at least making you one step closer to being a force of nature.

What is it about golf that seems to be synonymous with plaid?

My current favorite plaid piece for the course is the Lady hagen Plaid Bermuda Shorts. A little pink and green, a classic combination, in a great knee length short. They’re made with a great wick away cotton and they’re light and breezy for the course. You can definitely make it through 18 holes in these babies!
