Tailgate

Tailgating may not be the place to break out your most fashionable pieces, but everyone certainly sports their own unique style. A few of my tips include staying comfortable and layering up. Games can be long enough on their own, but throw in any extra tailgating time and your feet will be crying by the end of the day if you’re not in the right shoes. Weather can be quite difficult. From shade to direct sun to the eventual possibility of snow during games, you’ll need to think ahead and prepare for what mother nature may bring. Jackets, sweaters, scarves, whatever it takes.

I’ve always been a Penn State fan, but since we moved to State College, the home of PSU last year, our enthusiasm for the team has drastically increased. My 5yo football fanatic may have a little something to do with that as well. I was actually at a wedding this past Saturday so I missed our team’s unfortunate loss, but I was proud to support them the following day regardless. We live within a few miles of Beaver stadium and we always enjoy strolling around the empty, massive stadium. If you’re an NFL fan, make sure you check out the cute array of t-shirts Old Navy has to offer here.  I won’t even try to tackle options for every team, you don’t need to look far to find sports apparel!

You live in Happy Valley??!?! It's my husband's dream. He's a Penn State alum and he eats, breathes, sleeps everything Penn State. The first time he took me there I felt SO out of place because everyone and I mean EVERYONE (even dogs walking down the street) had at least one article of Penn State Gear on! I felt like I was walking around a cult! Next time I went, I didn't make that mistake again and now I own quite a few pieces. Your look is perfect for a tailgate! Comfort is the key! You look great! We Are!!!! Marianne www.goodgirlgoneglam.com

Perfect tailgate look! Love it! Although, my luck, I'd sit in nacho cheese with the white pants. :(

These pictures make me miss home. I am from your area but moved away several years ago due to the military. We are PSU fans in this house! I love seeing pictures of my home town on your blog. :)
