Yellowstone-chic means dress to impress, with your own western / mountain-style flair. Think floral dresses, gingham, nice denim, linen or wool suits, wide brim hats, cowboy boots, bolo ties... Wear shoes that are comfortable to walk in (boots, tennis shoes, flats). Do NOT wear skinny or high heels! You will need to walk along trails connecting parts of the property. Be prepared for chilly evening weather.
