Style File Friday: Wisconsin State Fair

It's going to be just another busy summer weekend. Weddings to attend (two for me this weekend), the State Fair, plays, live music, benefits.... And that's just the way summer should be. Remembering how tiring and jam packed this part the year is can be difficult to do in the middle of the snow covered months (notice I didn't use the "W" word). So this is my little prompt (for myself and I guess you if you need it) to suck it up, smile and enjoy it while you've got it. Oh and there is a beautiful weather forecast to boot!

My favorite part of any fair is the animals.  Where else does one get to see supremely groomed, fed and taken care of animals of all different breeds, types and sizes in one place?  Plus nothing is more cute than a young kid excited about all of the great work they did to get there. 

My second favorite is fair food, especially WI fair food.  One really must plan on eating at least three meals/day at the fair.  There are simply too many choices to have just one food item.  Then stock up on lettuce and fat free dressing on your way home as this will be the meals for the following week. ;)

The Wisconsin State Fair Outfit:

Butterfly Wing Tee: $28
