If you’re headed out for a BBQ, picnic or parade on July the 4th, a sundress or shorts will do just fine. But if you’re heading out to watch fireworks in the Bay Area, you’ll need protection from the chill, not the sun. Slap a cardigan over your T-shirt and swap your shorts for jeans and you’ll be oohing and aahing in comfort and style.
Destination: the San Francisco Symphony concert and fireworks at Shoreline Amphitheater on the bay. Unless you like sitting in traffic for hours, biking the Stevens Creek Trail or walking is the way to go. Bring lights!

- There’s plenty of room in my pannier for our pre-concert picnic dinner.
-
- Wide-brimmed sunhat for daytime, fedora for the evening.
-
- Even when you’re going minimal with the decorations, a pinwheel is a must.
About Fashion Friday: Inspired by a 2011 Bike to Work Day challenge sponsored by the San Francisco Bicycle Coalition, this series highlights the broad range of “dress for the destination” bicycling fashions.
