I love creating a style guides (It’s something I do for my photography clients).

And since it’s currently summer, and lavender season, I thought, why not make an entire style guide specifically for Lavender! So here it is, my Lavender Outfit Ideas Guide.

Lavender fields are super popular here in California. We have so many lavender fields scattered all over the state. So whether you want to visit a Pick-Your own lavender bundle, attend a gorgeous lavender festival, or you want to take photos at a lavender field, I’ve got you covered!

 
 

Choose the Right Color Palette for your Lavender Outfit

I picked out these color palettes not only because they work well together, but because you can mix and match and everything still looks coordinated! And you’re not distracting from the beauty of the lavender.

Warm Pastels

  • Think white, cream, light beige, tan, and even deeper colors like cool brown.

Cool Pastels

  • Colors like cool white, dove grey, lavender, and sage photograph beautifully with lavender flowers.

Cool Blues

  • I don’t know what it is about blues and lavender, but I love it! You can add a variety of blues in your wardrobe by mixing in neutral colors like white and light beige.

Bonus Tips for a Stress-Free Visit to the Lavender Fields

Whether you're planning a professional photoshoot or just soaking up a summer day among the blooms, a little prep can go a long way. Here are some easy tips to help you make the most of your lavender field visit:

  • Choose the right farm: Look for farms that offer “U-pick” experiences, festivals, or shaded picnic areas so you can enjoy more than just a quick stroll through the flowers.

  • Watch for bees: Lavender naturally attracts bees, but they’re usually calm and focused on the flowers. Avoid strong perfumes and stay respectful of their space.

  • Wear the right shoes: Fields can be uneven, dusty, or full of loose gravel. Closed-toe shoes or flat sandals are a much better choice than thin heels.

  • Dress in layers: Summer days can start cool and heat up quickly. A lightweight sweater, denim jacket, or oversized button-down can help you stay comfortable.

  • Bring water and snacks: Most lavender farms are rural and might not have food options nearby. Pack a reusable water bottle and a few light bites, especially if you’re bringing kids.

  • Don’t forget a hat and sunscreen: There's often very little shade, and the sun can be intense. A wide-brimmed hat adds comfort and keeps things cool.

  • Expect a bit of dust or pollen: It’s a working farm, after all! Bring wet wipes or a hand towel just in case.
