How to Curate Your Own Southern Style

6. Tailgating style

College football is serious business down South, and the style that goes with it is no different. On game days, you will find southern beaus and belles decked in their football best to cheer on their favorite team. Famed University of Alabama football coach Paul “Bear” Bryant’s displayed the southern style well with his signature gameday look of a sport coat and houndstooth fedora. Jeans and a team jersey just won't cut it at an SEC game or tailgate. Expect to see nods to their favorite teams throughout the week, though, not just on game day. Whether it's by wearing team colors, patterns, or accessories, a southerner always knows how to discreetly and politely pay homage to their team.
