Many of us have been mystified as to what to wear to weddings. If you are one of the many fumbling for the appropriate attire wedding after wedding, you are in luck my friend.

Here is a quick break down of wedding types and what that "black tie" or "beach casual" notation really means.

L.L. Bean is one of those companies that make a bit of everything. However, don't make the assumption that they are a jack of all trades, master of none, instead consider the full phrase which continues, though ofttimes better than master of one. Thanks, Wikipedia!

L.L. Bean is focused on the outdoors. They make everything from kayaks to baby strollers, tents to sporks. Really. They also have a great line of footwear for the whole family that is as stylish as it is functional. Aesthetics are not sacrificed for performance, or vice versa.

With due respect to Martha and the Vandellas, summer, more or less, is here, and the time is right to get outside and enjoy it. Dancing is optional, but please watch for oncoming traffic.

What could be more romantic and elegant than an evening soiree under a white tent? You have the stars above, a summer breeze blowing softly, and undoubtedly beautiful (and flattering) lighting. You'll have no problem finding the right dress, but we'd like to take a second to talk to you about shoes.

Granted, "roughing it" and being stylish can seem a little contradictory. However, Eureka N!ergy Tent might just be the fashionable person's alternative to the traditional outdoors experience.

The main difference between this tent and the one in your garage is that comes with three 12-volt plugs. So, when you connect the tent to the Eureka E! Power Pack, you can power up your Blackberry, laptop, and whatever else you need to stay connected to everyone back in civilization. Or, presumably, anything else that runs off of 12-volts, like a hair dryer, toaster, etc.

Of course, some might say that bringing your beauty products or techno gadgets out into the wilderness defeats the purpose, and that may be true. I, however, have never been the camping type, but now that I know about the N!ergy Tent, I am seriously considering getting more in touch with nature.
