After a long cold winter, little is better than summer days and warm sunshine.  One thing that always seems to crop up in the summer, is the summer wedding.  So why not have a little inspiration for what to wear to that stake of weddings you have invites to pinned to your fridge.

Some basic tips

  •  Know your bride and groom.  Everyone has different styles and tastes.  Dress in something you know they would love, and fits the theme of their wedding.
  •  If the bride is wearing white, don’t wear white.  I know, but I had to say it. The day is about the bride
  • Watch your skirt length.  Knee length is idea, or longer if that is your preference.

For the Casual Wedding

We all have that friend who wants to get married outside in cowboy boots.  They fun and easy going, and their wedding is bout to be a blast.  Wear a cotton floral dress.  Its comfortable and will let you move on the dance floor and have a great time.  Yellow is a huge color this summer, and perfect for a wedding like this.

Step it up a Notch…

For a slightly dressier outdoor wedding, floral is still a great option.  Go for a bold print in a more structured cut to step things up a notch.  This dress is my personal favorite, because it works for almost any wedding occasion!

The Formal Wedding

Go for a cocktail dress in a summer color like this great shade of green, especially if the wedding is in the daytime.

The Maxi DressWhat to wear to a summer wedding

We all love maxi dresses.  They are the ideal summer go to look.  Who wouldn’t to carry that over to a wedding! The way to make a maxi dress work is to wear one with a little more formal look, like this shirt dress style in an electric color.

 

Wearing Black

The little black dress is the perfect chic stylish look for a cocktail wedding. Wearing black to a wedding can be tricky, after all you want to look happy for the occasion, not like you are going to a funeral. The trick is to be a little more fun with you attire.  Don’t skimp on the dress.  Go for lace or satin, or an equally appealing fabric, and wear with fun accessories.

Go Bold

Feel like pushing the fashion limits, and turning a few heads?  Try a jumpsuit!  They are easily dressed up, but super comfortable if dresses aren’t your thing.

 

Hopefully this makes choosing your outfit when you are a wedding guest this summer a little easier.  Check back next week for a post on how to accessorize these looks!

Spring 2015 Fashion Trends

So here are my top 5 favorite spring fashion trends for 2015

1. The Shirtdresshttp-::www.glamour.com:images:fashion:2014:09:rebecca-minkoff-shirt-dress-spring-2015-h724

Glamour Magazine 

The shirtdress can be casual or dressed up, but I think it brings a sexy side to a classic button down.  As seen above, a cute belt can take that shirt dress from a sloppy sack to a fit and stylish outfit. I also love that the shirt dress above has slits that are not too risqué but make this tea length style easy to move in! And I just love a good strip pattern! Never be afraid to get something tailored either.  If you’re like me, the top of the shirt dress hangs limp and way too big in order to get one that fits over my much wider hips! So invest that extra couple of dollar into a tailor and be in fashion this season!

2. Bright Yellowhttp-::4.bp.blogspot.com:-qWFgnAc1emI:VCkG2W-isBI:AAAAAAAAKXQ:TpzG_e2NhMo:s1600:NYFW%2BCOLOR%2BTRENDS

Beautifully Fierce

I love YELLOW!  I’ve been wearing yellow for years, but it’s not a good color for everyone.  Don’t let that steer you away from yellow this season.  Simply pair a yellow pant or skirt with a white top and enjoy the fun yellow fashion trend.  You can also try adding a scarf to your yellow top to break the yellow between your face and shirt!

3. Culotteshttp-::cdn.fashionisers.com:wp-content:uploads:2014:10:spring_summer_2015_fashion_trends_wide_leg_pants_and_culottes_fashionisers

Although plenty of things are “in” this year, it looks like short is back! Short flowy culottes from the past are in. Showing off sexy ankles with strapy sandals or a great pair of heels, these floaty short pants are going to be HOT this season!

4. Head to Toe WhiteFrame-Denim-Spring-2015-w724 www.glamour.com

Glamour Magazine

I look out my window and all I can see is white, but somehow this head to toe white look makes me SUPER excited for spring.  It’s classy, it’s refreshing, and it’s easy! White and Yellow are in, crisp and classy for spring!

5. Army Green

Fashion Winter Summer

Who’s to say that army green isn’t amazing.  Green being one of my favorite colors, I love what Ralph Lauren did with this classic style and army green neutral!

It will be interesting to see what the population picks up on from spring fashion 2015. Although these were some of my favorites, I don’t always win in the general public fashion game!

Until next week, xoxo ~ Em
