No-Fail Outfits For All Those Friggin’ Summer Weddings

It’s wedding season, i.e. time to find the perfect outfit for the onslaught of day and night events. We’ve got you covered from the garden party to a black-tie affair, and all the open bars in between.

The Garden/Outdoor Wedding:

Touch on three great spring trends in one dress with  J.Crew’s Watercolor Garden Bridget Dress ($285). One-shoulder, purple, and floral print are this season’s must-haves.

A pearl necklace is always classic, but we absolutely adore the tulle flowers on this Ann Taylor Long Pearl and Tulle Necklace ($78).

Beach Wedding:

Rock a pretty coral dress to your next destination wedding–we adore this ASOS Gathered Shoulder Soft Drape Dress ($45.65, down from $76.09).

Turquoise stones are so beachy and summery–we love the multiple strands on this Santorini Shell Necklace ($39.95).

Eastern Wedding:

Ikat is huge right now – just in time for the Easten wedding coming up. We love the pattern and the bold color on this ASOS Warehouse Tropical Ikat Print Bandeau Dress ($76.09).

Here’s a great time to wear the tribal bib necklace you bought this spring. If you don’t have one – try this ASOS Short Bright Bib Necklace With Metal ($50.73).

Black-Tie Affair:

The maxi dress trend will come in handy this summer when you’re shopping for the black-tie wedding. This Rachel Pally Hostess Gown ($233) is fabulous and perfect for the occasion.

Lucite necklaces are huge this season – plus they are an easy way to look like you are wearing high end jewelry. We love this Aqua Lucite Nugget and Silvertone Necklace ($24, down from $40).

    Great post! I seem to always buy a new dress for all our weddings as we keep seeing the same people. It’s fun but can get quite $$$ (especially when I need shoes too!) I love the options here, of course, the lilac J. Crew watercolor is my favorite.
