Since it was both a casual and professional event, with temperatures mixed from chilly, to very warm, to chilly and windy as the sun went down, I agonized over what to wear. The genre of “festival attire” is all of the rage right now, and I certainly owned a piece or two that would fit into that category, yet I agonized over what to wear.

And yet… I don’t necessarily subscribe to dressing “age appropriate,” but let’s be real – I wouldn’t be wearing anything that would mimic what the 15 year-olds were donning for the music festival. Plus, I do want to dress like an “adult going to a music festival;” my look is interesting, and has evolved, and is just so…me. So here’s what I wore to the Governor’s Ball, that was a mix of business and pleasure, varying temperatures, and overall, a total blast.

My Dad was recently on the hunt for a style of denim that he kept referring to as “adult jeans,” jeans that are void of whiskers, faux wear and tear, fading, and/or too tight of a fit. As much as we kids laughed at him and his phrasing, I couldn’t help but relate to what he was saying while getting ready this weekend for the Since it was both a casual and professional event, with temperatures mixed from chilly, to very warm, to chilly and windy as the sun went down, I agonized over what to wear.
