I ran into a friend of mine at the grocery store today, where she was shopping for a bottle of wine. She was on her way to a dinner party, and wanted my advice about what she was wearing.

Party Attire: What to Wear to a Low-Key Party

Penelope!
I have exhausted my options and face trying to dress appropriately for a party on a lake. Now I don't mean a "float as you are," but more of a “try to make a splash without looking too flashy or trendy" kind of party, if you understand what I mean. My friends think that "dressed up" means jeans and they are just too hot to wear at this time of year. What do you think? I'd love to hear from you and think your site is wonderful!
Take Care,
Carlie
