AUGUSTA, Ga. — Hello everyone, and happy Tuesday from Augusta National! It was a beautiful day at the Masters, and with the temperature barely reaching 70 degrees, it was the perfect opportunity for patrons to wear their Sunday best (on a Tuesday) to one of the greatest sporting events on Earth.
One of my favorite parts of Masters week is seeing what everybody wears, and as someone who doesn’t usually dress up to cover golf, it’s the one week a year I switch things up.
There were a handful of trends I noticed out on the course today. Green is obviously the color that gets worn the most because you simply can’t go wrong with the official color of the tournament. Plus, everyone can find a shade of green that works for them. There were also a lot of pink outfits, as well as my personal favorite: butter yellow.
About half of the women I spoke to were either wearing Anthropologie or Tuckernuck, so if you’re looking for some new clothes, try checking those out. However, you don’t have to break the bank to look great at Augusta National. Target, Old Navy and Gap were also mentioned for a more affordable price point.
With the exception of one young woman I saw in wedges, everyone had sneakers on today. VEJAs and Adidas Sambas were definitely the most popular out on the grounds, which makes sense as they’re both stylish and great for walking. As far as bags go, most women opted for crossbody bags over a standard purse. I’m a massive crossbody fan because of how functional they are. It allows you to be hands-free and hold a water bottle, your camera and whatever else you may need.
Sun hats are also the most popular headwear for women here at Augusta, but as you’ll see in the photos below, baseball hats also pair well with sundresses and skirts. Accessories are where people really go all out. From golf-themed pins and scarves to Masters purses and bright sunglasses, there really isn’t such thing as “too much green” at the Masters.
As for the men, I’m encouraging everybody to step it up a bit. Don’t get me wrong. I’d definitely wear golf clothes if I were a guy at the Masters. It’s a simple uniform that requires very little thought and looks put together. However, the Masters is a chance to really show off your style, and this week’s weather is absolutely perfect to explore your personal style with layering. I won’t pretend to be an expert, but I’ve included a few photos of men in the below gallery to inspire you all! (You are welcome.) Don’t be afraid to take a risk. Think Arnold Palmer.
