Arizona is hosting the NCAA Final Four Festivities for the first time and we couldn’t be more excited! Whether you’re planning to participate in the many events hosted in our beloved downtown Phoenix or heading to the games in Glendale, don’t forget to showcase your personal style and bring your very own A-game. It’s always best to keep it casual, add a little flair to comfortable shoes and most of all, throw in some basketball gear to support your favorite team in style.

WHAT TO WEAR

March Madness Ladies Edition

Gap green jersey dress / Hoodie top / T By Alexander Wang white crop shirt / Current/Elliott low rise boyfriend jeans, $160 / Destroyed denim shorts / Black creeper shoes / NIKE velvet sneaker, $94 / Adidas black suede sneaker / MANGO daypack bag, $37 / Yellow pendant necklace / Grey flat cap

For all the march madness going on you will need to keep it comfortable and versatile – you could be anywhere from a game, a concert, a bar or even a quick game of one-on-one.

For women, a jersey dress transitions perfectly from day to night. Pair with metallic tennis shoes or bring some rock and roll edge with some flat form boots. Denim and baseball hats are a must for men and women. A hat is the easiest way to switch up a look and you can throw it into your bag when the sun goes down.

Men have been rocking the accessories lately and we are loving it. At all the Phoenix sports events we are seeing chains of all sizes, thick bracelets and of course a great watch (with all that’s going on you’ll need to stay on time to catch it all!) Head to Urban Outfitters at CityScape for a one stop shop!

March Madness Men's Edition

AMIRI mens ripped jeans / KURO mens slim fit jeans / Nike mens shoes / NIKE mens oxford shoes / Diesel mens watch / FOSSIL men s watch / NIKE mens graphic t shirt / LE3NO men s casual shirt / Jordan Brand mens snapback hat, $25 / PrAna mens leather belt / 3D Light FX battery light

GAME TIME STYLE
The Final Four is taking over the city this weekend, but with the Phoenix Suns and Phoenix Mercury making their homes here, downtown Phoenix is pretty much always crazy for basketball. Our stylish fans proves that wearing your fandom on your sleeve can be more than just sporting your favorite player’s jersey (though that’s always a good call!) Here are some shots of sports-goers from when our Phoenix Suns played the Chicago Bulls. Fans from both sides were heating up the sidelines!
