When the temperature rises in the Lou, my favorite thing to do is get dressed and get outside. St. Louis boasts several outdoor events and festivals. They’re usually free too! One of my treasured outdoor spots, conveniently located in my neighborhood, is the Missouri Botanical Garden, the nation’s oldest botanical garden in continuous operation.
Summertime at the Garden is extra special because of the Whitaker Music Festival. Picture this: Live music, scenic views, picnic fare, and the perfect dress from London Times. The tiered blouson dress by London Times is surely a go-to summer dress. It comes in a fresh fuchsia color, flaunts fabulous features like laser cut detailing on a tiered skirt, and is versatile enough for casual outings to fancier affairs.
