If you haven't heard the Los Angeles Lakers are the top ticket in California sports, as they're located in Hollywood and attract of load of regular celebrities. They're also pretty good having won five Championships since 2000, not to mention their storied history dating back to the early 70's. When you go to sporting events, you still want to look good, but not overdone and uncomfortable; the game may go into triple overtime or 15 innings. The faces that sit court side may ooze celebrity status, but don't try to emulate them all as you may find yourself to be the village idiot at the Palace of Auburn Hills.
2. Looking good, feeling GREAT!
It's okay to be a little dressy at a sporting event, especially if it's your personality and you can downplay the look with some casual pieces. I don't recommend you wear a tight dress or any dress for that matter, but if you must then please don't wear heels. Anything clearly over the top screams 'high maintenance sports hater/I hope I get on the jumbotron'. If you're a girl who can't go anywhere without heels, rock on! But pair them with skinny jeans and a loose shirt so you still get that casually sexy look. Hint for the weary: arena floors can get sticky like at the movie theatre, so unless you're court side there's no guarantee your Louboutins will remain dainty.
3. Rip'em with Ball Caps
Sometimes the last thing you want to do is dress up for a sporting event, especially if you're coming from out of town or you're still hungover from last night. Sometimes you couldn't care less that you're even going, so fixing your hair is barely conceivable. If that's the case roll with the 'laid back' look, ripped jeans, sweat pants, tear-aways - a favourite at outdoor stadiums. Be sure to don the team's cap and some sunglasses so you come off as that "maybe she's a celebrity trying to be on the down low" kinda girl.
4. Easier than a Slam Dunk

5. Things to AVOID
Try to keep the leather and lace at home or save it for the club. These things do not belong in the arena. Fur can also remain in the closet but if you're going to a hockey arena, you have a fair chance of keeping warm unless PETA happens to be in town. Then you better bring some extra cash for that jersey! Also, the professional look is a little too fancy, unless you're coming straight from work and want to be taken for as a suitcase-totting semi-sports fan who gets to go to games just for the clients and the company you work for. No one wants to be more dressed than baseball's umpire, who after years and years of dress pants, suit jackets and baseball caps is in desperate need of a wardrobe shakedown.
While some sports have different dress codes like golf or certain horse racing events, these tips are great for the more common sporting event. I'll do another post eventually on what to wear to those things, when another celebrity ruffles my feathers the way Kim did this morning.
