  1. Whether you go for a darling dress or a comfy sweatsuit, make sure your outfit has layers to avoid a classic temperature conundrum. Wear a tank top under your outfit of choice so you can peel off a layer if you get too hot, and bring some outerwear like a sweater so you can layer up if you get too cold.[1]
    • Start with your favorite pair of denim, followed by a long-sleeve shirt and a cute graphic tee layered over the top. Complete the look with a denim jacket and cowboy boots.
    • Layer a white tee underneath an unbuttoned flannel. Go for a pair of oversized denim, and finish the look with a bomber jacket, sneakers, and a baseball cap.

    • Go for a skirt and a fun blouse before layering a stylish blazer over your look.[3] Try loafers or ballet flats to amp up the glam.

    • Boots, sneakers, whatever tried and true shoe you know you can count on is the perfect choice for football footwear. Pair your shoes with some jeans or shorts, a flowy blouse, and bring a sweater for later.
    • Nothing's worse than walking around in uncomfortable shoes all day and ending up with painful blisters. Opt for your favorite tennies, baggy jeans, and a sports jersey for a laid-back look.
