Summer Wedding Style: Dress to Impress!
Welcome, fashionistas! With summer in full swing, it's time to talk about the ultimate sartorial challenge: styling for a summer wedding. Whether you're a guest, part of the bridal party, or just there for the open bar, looking fabulous is a must.
I'm very excited to be going to my littlest sisters wedding in Vancouver next week. So, the perfect wedding guest outfit has been in the making for some time now. I have to admit it's been a bit of a challenge. Luckily, it's a pretty laid back affair and not black tie. Not sure how I'd cope with that level of fanciness!
For the Style file, I selected two non-dress outfits because I believe it's important to showcase your uniqueness and enjoy experimenting with your clothing choices. Take a break from traditional wedding attire.
I am still very much obsessed with waistcoats! I love this combination of trousers and waistcoat. It is versatile and can be worn throughout different seasons so will stand the test of time. It's an investment outfit and the pieces can be worn separately. The Waistcoat would be equally as gorgeous paired with a skirt or black leather shorts. The trousers have a high waist to give you a defined shape. The waistcoat features a stunning oversized collar. I have opted for minimal accessories, pairing the outfit with block heeled sandals and a small fringe bag. Adding a delicate necklace and earring set would complete the look beautifully.
This outfit is currently on sale. Hurry!
Up next is the incredible lavender strapless top and trouser combination. This outfit will make you stand out for sure, and it's guaranteed to have fellow guests enquiring about the shop's name right away so they can go buy it!
Although I've matched it with all silver accessories, you could opt for some orange accents to add a bold touch if you're feeling daring.
Again, this is an investment piece for sure but you are getting two pieces that can be worn separately in different outfits.
This is your splurge outfit!
It's time to focus on dresses now. Being a big Rixo enthusiast, I was confident that the brand would offer a fantastic selection of dresses for a wedding. I was spoilt for choice but settled on this one as it has sleeves,
considering that not everyone likes to show their arms.
I picked a white sandal and a beautiful baby blue bag. These earrings from MoMuse complement the blue tones in the dress perfectly.
This Mango dress features a stunning long bow tie at the back, adding a touch of elegance. Its loose fit provides extra comfort, making it ideal for a beach wedding, yet equally stylish for any wedding setting.
I love red and gold together as I've styled it here. It would be great with silver too though.
Remember, the key to nailing your summer wedding look is to strike a balance between style and comfort. So, go ahead, experiment with different trends, and don't be afraid to show off your unique fashion sense. After all, weddings are all about celebrating love, so why not do it in style?
Until next time, stay fabulous!
