What to Wear: August Events in Louisville

July 30, 2015 by Krista Walker

It’s getting harder and harder with every passing day to pick an outfit that doesn’t cause melting like a popsicle. Dresses and skirts are basically the only thing we’ve been wearing to combat this steamy humidity. The evenings seem the only pleasurable time of the day during these past weeks of summer.

We’ve dedicated our August What to Wear post to casual, evening events that are (for the most part) family friendly. So what are these great evening events you ask? Shania Twain “Rock This Country Tour,” Brew at the Zoo, and the Foxhollow Farm Sunset Concert Series. We’ve chosen some breezy summer outfits to keep you cool from The Shirt Shop, J. McLaughlin, and Blu Boutique, and Dress & Dwell.

The Event: Shania Twain “Rock This Country Tour”, August 3

All you Shania Twain fans out there, this is your chance to see the country pop queen herself at the YUM! Center! The “Rock This Country Tour” (queue the song) is Twain’s first time back on the stage in over eleven years. Grab your girlfriends for a night full of belting out oldies like “Man, I Feel Like A Woman” and “Come On Over.” With Gavin DeGraw as the opening performance, this will be one show you most certainly will not want to miss. Get your tickets fast ladies!

The Event: Foxhollow Farm Sunset Concert Series, August 14

The Foxhollow Farm Sunset Concert Series makes for the perfect relaxing Friday night. With different local bands on each occasion and several local farm-fresh food vendors, this is a great way to kick back and relax after a long work week. August’s concert series will featuring Small Time Napoleon with Nellie Pearl as well as food, beverages, and treats from Sweet & Savory, Wiltshire Pantry, Gelato Gilberto, and Ears What’s Poppin’. Rain or shine, this will be a great show and one you won’t want to miss. Don’t forget your lawn chairs, blankets, and your furry friends (on a leash, please).

The Event: Brew at the Zoo, August 22

If you were lucky enough to snag a ticket bright and early on July 1 to The Louisville Zoo’s annual event, Brew at the Zoo, then this is for you. This is a coveted event by Louisvillians and tickets certainly aren’t cheap, but they are worth it. With craft beer and wine tastings, many delicious food vendors, live entertainment, and all the animals at the zoo, you simply can’t go wrong with an event like this. You can get overheated though. We’ve once again chosen some breezy looks to help you cool off during the late afternoon into the evening.
