Where the Sunset Boardwalk style comes from
Seaside boardwalks, with their arcades, food stands and views of the water, have been summer evening hot spots for over a hundred years. A walk along the boards at sunset is one of the classic moments of a summer holiday.
The look sits between day and night: still light and summery, but a little more put together for dinner or photos. Bright, happy colour pairings like green and pink look great in warm golden-hour light.
Boardwalk outfit ideas: what to wear
- A flowy summer dress in green, pink or a fresh print.
- A sun hat for the last of the sunshine.
- Sunglasses that double as a hair accessory after dark.
- A small crossbody or straw bag for walking.
- Fun earrings and a light necklace.
- Flat sandals or sneakers for the long walk.
Where to wear it
- Evening strolls by the sea or a lake.
- Seaside fairs and summer carnivals.
- Casual dinners and ice cream dates.
- Holiday photos at golden hour.
Styling tips
- Pair green and pink for a fresh, summery contrast.
- Choose shoes you can walk in for an hour or more.
- A crossbody bag keeps your hands free for snacks and games.
- Bring a light layer for when the sea breeze cools down.
