Ask BB: What to Wear to a Charity Golf Tournament

I am volunteering at a charity golf tournament. I am not golfing but it is a company event and I want a cute yet appropriate outfit. Any suggestions? Shoes? —bridgetsobs

I'm picturing a hot, sunny golf course and lots of running around, so I'd recommend wearing your favorite white bottoms (shorts, capris or cargos) to keep cool and a flattering polo in your favorite bright color. Add stylish yet comfortable sneakers like mini-striped Keds, sunglasses and a light cotton hoodie in case you need to cover up. Bring a tote that you can toss under a table with essentials like sunscreen, water and a floppy hat. Here are some cheap-chic items to help you envision your golf charity outing look, click on any item for details:

A big beautiful Ulta recently opened near my home and while I would be well advised to avoid that store at all costs and hold onto my hard-earned money, it's absolutely irresistible and filled with countless beauty supplies I never knew I needed! One of the most exciting aisles at Ulta has to be the nail polish, they have dozens of brands and colors that you won't find at the drugstore, including all of Essie's latest spring/summer special collections: Summer, Wedding and Resort.
