Bring on Wedding Season


While summer does mean no more tests, lazy days, tan lines, and sunstreaked hair, it also announces the beginning of another “season”: wedding season. Sure, you’ve been getting the save the dates, you’ve seen the facebook coundowns until the “Big Day!”, but its just now dawning on you that all those weddings mean new dresses! Because there really isn’t a better excuse to buy a whole new outfit than “I have a friend’s wedding, and everyone there has already seen all my cute dresses!” It also begs the question of just what is appropriate wedding attire? Can you wear heels to a beach wedding? Does black tie mean a floor length dress? How short is too short? Have no fear, this simple wedding guide breaks it all down for you, from shoes to clutches to earrings and more!

Traditional Wedding

This type of wedding usually allows for a bit of fun fashion creativity. So why not play with a fun print or bust out a bright color? My current obsession is the J.Crew scallop dress because, let’s be honest, what’s not to love? Top it off with mint and gold accessories for a fun, polished look. Plus, those Kate Spade heels are to die for!

Formal Wedding

Check the invitation for specific instructions, but usually this does not mean ballgown attire. Nevertheless, keep it classy with a high neckline, simple accessories, and muted shoes. This Milly dress is an adorable silloutte with a fun but not too over the top print. Let your dress be the focal point with a simple pearl necklace and conservative heels.

Outdoor Wedding

No matter where you are, there’s a good chance this wedding is going to get a bit toasty. Stay cool with an adorable Lilly Pulitzer shift in fun and beachy colors. Choose wedges over heels to keep your feet from sinking into grass or sand, and top it off with a laidback, cool clutch like this J.Crew straw one.




No matter the type of wedding, it’s all about having fun! Pick a cute outfit, killer accessories, but most importantly: your dancing shoes! Get ready to have fun and celebrate with the bride and groom!
