I have been the flower girl, the maid of honor, a bridesmaid and a guest more times than I can count. This Summer alone? I rsvp’d yes FIVE TIMES. Meaning once a month, from now until October – Adam and I will suit up, say congrats and then shake a leg on the dance floor. If you’re headed into wedding season and have no idea what you are in for… I’m willing to share my tips for survival.
So far this week we’ve tackled Bridal Shower attire, Rehearsal Dinner-wear and finally today.. what to wear for the actual wedding! Oh, and did I mention I’ve been wearing a single stunning dress? After years of spending my Summer budget on wedding season dresses, I teamed up with French Connection to show you how just a single statement dress can be styled for every event you’re invited to.. and even better… you’ve got a chance to win this dress for yourself below!
After layering this dress to wear it as both a skirt and a top – I knew for the ‘Big Day’ I wanted to let it shine on it’s own. And seriously, the thing shines. I felt like a modern-day mermaid. Nothing more than side swept hair, statement earrings, a metallic clutch and nude heels and I can tell you I am ready for the whole ‘I do’, cut the cake, dance floor, late night lobby party shebang. Would love to hear which was your favorite wedding season look this week!
We’re in the full swing of wedding season (showers, bachelorette parties, the big day..) and in efforts to avoid my usual trap of buying wayyy too many different dresses, I’m taking a different approach this year. I teamed up with one of my favorite brands, French Connection, this week to show you how just one dress can get you through it all. Yesterday, I took it to a Bridal Shower, and today? We’re talking Rehearsal Dinner-wear. Better still? You can win this sequin showstopper for yourself! ENTER HERE.
Like it or not – we’re officially in wedding season. Last year alone, I attended bridal showers, bachelorette parties, rehearsal dinners and oh yeah, actual weddings. And want to know how many dresses I purchased to get me through all those? The answer is too many. So this year – I decided to do things differently. And with the help of French Connection I chose a single dress. So over the next few days, I’m showing you how to wear this modern-day mermaid concoction for every different nuptial related event you may find yourself staring at an invite for this season. And even better – French Connection is giving the same dress to one lucky reader, so enter below!
When I was thinking of what dress would be my hero piece of the season I knew it needed to have the ability to lightly layer, go with accessories I already owned, be comfortable and also a bit of a statement. This shimmery, curve-hugging number fit the bill perfectly. For a bridal shower I would pair it with this flutter sleeve top (for the record: I’m totally okay with wearing a touch of white to a shower as a guest, but would make it a second runner to another color, and try to avoid white lace in general to wedding related events), comfortable gold wedges, a small cross-body bag and loose low ponytail. Check back tomorrow when I head to a rehearsal dinner and change things up completely.
