Sundresses and Shrimp Boots

The dress code straddles the best of both worlds when the Child Advocacy Services organization (CAS) hosts a grand return of its once-annual, very-popular fundraiser. So slip on your Cocodrie Converse and head out to historic St. Francisville for an evening of sipping and strolling in support of safe environments for children—starting on the front lawns of the St. Francisville Inn and The Saint, where you can enjoy a signature cocktail. Then head on over to The Mallory for a sunset social in the foyer and garden, featuring live music hors d'oeuvres, cocktails, and a silent auction. 3 pm–7 pm. $65. childadv.net.
