What I Wore: Safari-Inspired Outfit

safari-inspired outfit

Last week, I wore this safari-inspired outfit to a girls’ night out for Melinda Maria Jewelry ambassadors. The event took place at The Whale in Chicago, a trendy restaurant and bar in Logan Square. I went with Kathrine, Caroline, and Laura (Andrea was unable to attend).

It was one of those hot summer nights with temps in the 90s and humidity you could cut with a knife. I needed something cool, comfortable, yet cute for photos and mingling, and this breezy safari-inspired set from Zara was perfect. By the way, both the top and pants are now on sale if you want to grab them.

I love the relaxed vibe of this look with the drawstring waist and wide-leg pants, but it still feels polished thanks to the monochrome cream color. I paired it with rattan platform sandals and layered my favorite Melinda Maria gold necklaces for a little sparkle.

After the event, we headed to Federales restaurant for Mexican food and margaritas. It was the perfect way to wrap up the night.

This outfit kept me comfy all evening, from happy hour to dinner, and I know I’ll be reaching for it again and again. Would you wear this safari-inspired outfit? Let me know in the comments!
