How To Look Your Best While Playing Golf
Have you ever tried golfing? Joe convinced me a few years ago to try it, and believe it or not, I was pretty good. I think I might have been REALLY good if I’d kept at it. (Side note: have you ever read Pride and Prejudice? I love the line where Lady Catherine de Bourgh is talking about music on the piano, and she says, “If I had ever learnt, I should have been a great proficient.”) So, if I’d ever learned golf, I would have been great, lol. As much as I enjoyed it, I don’t have much time to play 18 holes. But, if you play golf or if you’re like me and watch someone you love to play the game, this is for you! Today, I’m sharing how to look your best while playing golf. Or just watching golf, whatever.
How To Look Your Best While Playing Golf – Tops
Depending on your golf club, you might be required to wear a collared shirt. This lilac sleeveless top is the only top in this post that fits me correctly. The large size is perfect, and the light purple looks great with the blue-patterned skort.
This sleeveless top isn’t just any shirt; it’s designed to keep you cool and comfortable while on the golf course. With a length of 24 1/2 inches and a stylish v-neck, it’s made from a stretch fabric that moves with you, wicks away moisture to keep you dry, and even has UPF 50+ sun protection! Made from 86% nylon and 14% Lycra® spandex, it’s super easy to care for—just toss it in the wash and tumble dry.
I know that’s a tennis racquet, not a golf club, but the fashion police won’t care. This is 87% polyester and 13% elastane, making it super lightweight, stretchy, and breathable. It’s designed to wick sweat away, plus the collarless design provides a bit of sun protection for your neck. The curved hem and short sleeves offer great coverage and freedom of movement. Like the one above, it also offers UPF50+ protection. Available in a variety of colors like Sky Blue, it’s not just for sports but also great for casual outings.
This looks like a neat design detail, but it’s actually breathable mesh around the arms. It not only looks stylish but also keeps you cool throughout the day. I love the V-neck cut for that touch of style, and the cap sleeves are perfect for a sporty chic vibe. This shirt comes in the prettiest shades, like the pink shown, but there’s a whole rainbow of colors to choose from.
How To Look Your Best While Playing Golf – Skorts and Shorts
This is my favorite skort! I love versatile clothing, and this skort outfit could be worn for golf, tennis, or a date night. I love this print, and this length is my favorite for a skort. The longer skorts look dressy, but this length helps to make my legs look long and lean, and that’s what I want. This skort is also available in more colors and prints.
Here’s a skort that hits all the right notes for me! I love the asymmetric tiers, plus it’s made from stretchy, UPF-protective fabric. It’s a nice 18 1/2″ length, a comfy 4″ inseam, and a pull-on style for ease. Not to mention, the antimicrobial fabric keeps things fresh by inhibiting those pesky odor-causing germs. The bright white will look amazing against the green of a golf course.
Bermuda shorts are a wardrobe staple that offers both comfort and style, which is why they’re such a great choice for women over 50. Their length, typically hitting just above the knee, strikes a balance between showing some leg while still providing ample coverage. This makes them ideal for various activities besides golf, such as running errands, meeting friends for lunch, or enjoying a casual day out.
The PGA TOUR Women’s Stretch360 Golf Shorts are practical and inexpensive, with prices around $31. They’re designed with a stretch waistband that’s all about moving with you without feeling tight or uncomfortable. The best part? They’ve got a chic, straight fit that hits just above the knee, offering both style and coverage with a 9.5″ inseam. Whether you’re aiming for a hole-in-one or running errands, these shorts will have you looking great.
How To Look Your Best While Playing Golf – Pants
These pants are for anyone who loves to stay active without compromising on style. Like the other items, these are also made of lightweight, UPF-protective fabric. I love that they are stretchy, and the crop at the ankle gives a sleek, modern look. They come with a smoothing wide waistband that sits just right whether you’re teeing off or heading out for a casual meet-up. Made from 65% recycled nylon and 35% Lycra® spandex, they’re eco-friendly too. Easy to care for, you can choose to dry clean them or simply toss them in the wash.
These look very similar, with the cropped ankle and the wide waistband, but there are differences. These are made by Adidas, and they know a few things about athletic wear. The leg opening is a tiny bit bigger, giving you a slight flare, and they have a small slit on the side for a bit of detailing. These also have back pockets, which the navy pair does not have. You can’t go wrong with either pair. Or both, lol.
How To Look Your Best While Playing Golf – Shoes
Golfing is an excellent opportunity to buy new shoes, lol! You can’t walk around on the course in just anything! These have a nice grippy sole to ensure you’re not slipping and sliding around the green. They are designed to be super lightweight and sporty, and I’m a fan of the soft mint color.
Recognize the iconic three stripe design? Yes, these are also from Adidas! I like the subtle, soft coloring. They manage to look sporty but not masculine. These are technically “spikeless” which means you should be able to wear them inside the clubhouse, too. Perfect for having a cocktail after a long day of golfing or watching someone else swing the clubs!
Okay, ladies. Comment and let me know if you golf, like watching golf, or would be happy to never hear about golf, lol.

After one “lesson” with my newlywed husband, 40+ years ago, we made an agreement….whatever hubs spends on GOLF, I can spend on SHOP…..both are 4 letter words. Lol.
Love the Bermuda shorts.
I love that trade off!
Few things are more frustrating than not sleeping well! I am curious about what device you used to track your sleep. 😴
It is the Oura ring that you’ll see in my photos.
I do golf and play pickleball! These outfits will work great with both! Or just to wear around and look sporty!
Hi Tania! Love the golf outfits!
Our dog also gets up in the night and has trouble seeing (he is 17 now)! We now have a small nightlight close to floor level so he can see to get back to his bed after one of his several trips in the night. We also have a nightlight in the hallway. It works well for him and he doesn’t wake us up as much.
Good luck! 🙂
Have you thought of closing the bedroom door so that Lucy can’t roam about during the night? While neither my husband or I play golf, we have in the past. I think that most of the pieces you shared can be worn for other activities. I have tried on many skirts, but neither my husband or I have liked how any of them look on me. At least there are other options out there.
🙏🏼 Thinking of you and the pup. The doggy melatonin people are suggesting is a good idea.
Thank you for your work and the scripture!
Thank you sharing the golf attire! I do golf and pretty much wear Lilly Pulitzer exclusively mainly because they wash and wear like iron BUT… it’s so great to be introduced to new things! Thank you
Hi Tanya love these golf shirts and skorts they will be great for playing pickleball.
About your dog I can help you here I have been a dog groomer for over 40 years this is a common problem in older dogs especially if they are losing a bit of sight and sleeping a lot during the day. She is getting her night and days mixed up so sleeping during the day and awake and restless at night. Easy fix keep her awake during the day – if she goes to the groomer ask them to keep her a little extra time and no long naps during the day. You may have to keep waking her up during the day but in 2 days problem is usually fixed. All the best. Good bless you!
Thanks, Pat. I think she is losing some of her sight, that’s why I shine the light for her to see.
Not a golfer, but the Bermuda shorts reminded me of my aunt who always dressed like that in the summer. She learned to golf with my uncle. I always thought she looked sharp.
Bermuda shorts are dressier than most types of shorts.
I don’t golf but you showed some cute outfits that can be worn anywhere. Especially like the beige Bermuda outfit.
