Ive realized over the last year that every season is wedding season. I remember thinking that most people get married in the spring or the summer but it turns out now that many of my friends are starting to move into the next phase in their relationships it is ALWAYS wedding season. Aside from what to wear as a guest to a wedding I have found that there are endless other wedding related events that I have needed to dress for. Today lets talk about the bridal shower. What to wear AND what not to wear. Most importantly DO NOT under any circumstances wear white (that’s for the bride). Also dont buy something new for every occasion. While it may feel exciting to wear something special you can’t wear something special for every bridal shower, engagement party, rehearsal dinner, bachelorette party, and wedding. That would be crazy…Be practical and try to find a few pieces that will work for a number of events (for different weddings). I recently attended a bridal shower on a day that was unseasonably cold. I was not expecting the chill and had to adjust my planned ensemble to fit the weather. I believe you can almost never go wrong with black tights. They usually go unnoticed and can make your outfit cold weather ready. After deciding on the tights I decided to pair them with this dress from Nordstrom by RtA. It is a great piece that I know will be able to go with me from this season to the next. Warning: This dress is suede one spill of a drink and the outfit is history…there are many similar styles that come in faux suede which might be a better option for those of us who can be clumsy or have clumsy friends.
