Lake Norman
Comfort & Style
Color is key to your wardrobe this season, and we selected a secluded
spot on scenic Lake Norman that perfectly illustrates our point. The soft
pastel shadings of blue, brick and pink found in our models’ wardrobes
offer a harmonious contrast to Mother Nature’s vivid splashes of deep
blues and luscious greens. As an added bonus, the lighter hues in your
clothing better reflect the rays of the sun and help to keep you cooler
during your outdoor festivities.
Not to be outdone by our colorful surroundings, we just had to include
a few vibrant hues of our own, as seen in Paige’s marigold dress and
Jeremiah’s Mediterranean blue sport pants. Her cotton sundress is light
enough for wear on even the hottest of days, and the breathable cotton
used in his blue sport pants will keep him cool all day long, rain or shine.
Comfort and style can peacefully co-exist on even your hottest days
in the sun. A little wardrobe planning and an appreciation for all that
Mother Nature has to offer is all that it takes.
