Game Time

Rooting on the Boys in Style

I don’t do sports. And most of the time even watching them has no interest to me. There are a very few sports that I enjoy watching; hockey being one of them. Coming from Arizona, hockey isn’t very big but the sport sure has grown on me over the past year. Maybe it’s because I live with a Hockey fanatic or maybe because MU has a great team. Whatever got me involved in the game, thank you. Thanks to you I can’t keep away from the sport. These days I find myself at every single game rooting on the boys with my trusty sidekick in style.

When rooting them on of course we have to show off our pride by wearing our favorite hockey shirt. It’s a little old but it still counts.

We all know that the ice center can get a little chilly. Instead of wearing a jacket covering up your spirit, wear an open button up shirt such as a plaid or a chambray top. This will keep you warm as well as add a little style to your outfit.

Instead of just wearing basic blue jeans, wear pants to add a little color. I’m wearing the white because tonight’s a white out but you can wear others like khaki or any other color.  If you want to add a little extra style, tuck your shirt into your pants. That way you look like you tried.

When it comes to shoes, go simple. Basic tennis shoes will suffice. It’s a hockey game not a pageant show so there is no use to wear your fancy heels.

When dressing for a sporting event simple is better kids. Don’t overdo it. If it so interests you, finish off the look with simple jewelry. Go with a classic chain or bracelet. If jewelry isn’t your thing do your hair a little differently.  I curled mine but since its worn right it looks casual and not as if I’m trying too hard.

There’s a way to look cute while on the bleachers. Just go simple. Easy peasy.
