WTF is it. Can I get by with clean jeans and a tropical shirt? While I am tapping in to the knowledge here how about cocktail attire? Does dress pants and shirt cut it.

Well we are up narth so I dunno but I was invited to a wedding so I asked the bride to be if I needed to wear a suit ?
she said just wear clean Carhartts, so i bought a new pair
So this is clothes and not a new relationship status for people who get overly familiar under mistletoe or at other festivals?
Sounds like an excuse to wear cut off jorts and a Zeppelin shirt.
Seriously. That’s festival casual.

Festival casual sounds to me like you should at least cover your privates. How the fuck does that make sense as a dress code when it's already a law in most public places?
I am good with that but lost with this clothes shit.Quote:

Yeah, what kind of "festival" are we talking about, cause casual can take on a whole other dimension of fashion.
I am going to my billionaire cousin son's bar mitzvah. They have a bunch of events planned all with dress recommendations.Quote:

Austin Texas
They are Mexican if I could pull that of it would probably be a big hitQuote:

My take is what you would wear to go out to a nice restaurant that does not require jacket and ties. They want you to be comfortable
flip flops and a hula hoop
Because so many of us have been to billionaire bar mitzvahs? (My 60 something psychiatrist cousin did show up at his niece's bat mitzvah in a tank top, and had to be escorted off the dance floor for getting too familiar with the 13 year old girls.)Quote:

Wookie casual.
Not all festivals are for the Dead/jam bands…wow you guys are old
Austin?! Good news! EVERY restaurant sells T-shirts promoting the restaurant. Oh so many to recommend I’ll start with El Arroyo.

I have a couple of Chuy’s shirts I’d loan ya. Including one with a fish that has Bevo horns and says University of TexMex, which nobody reads to say “TexMex”
Is your cousin Michael Dell?

Met that dude back when he was in college just before ‘Angels in the Outfield’ as he was dating my friends sister. Nice as hell dude especially considering I was just a 14 yo kid.
My cousin and her husband, both McCombs MBA peeps, just retired at like age 50. So much money in that city these days. I have a crew down there if you need green. Have fun!!!
