Wedding Guest Dress Guide

Is it just me, or do you feel like you attend a wedding, couples shower, engagement party or bridal luncheon every weekend starting in early March and all the way until the end summer? I’m pretty sure I just saw quite a few hands raise through my computer screen. That’s exactly what I suspected, which is why I have put together a Wedding Guest Dress Guide for you! You can also shop more wedding guest dresses, shoes and accessories here-> Shop Wedding Guest Dresses

Outfit: Date Night Dress (wearing size small) c/o Yumi Kim (also available here) | Hot Pink Heels (similar) | Clutch c/o Lovebirds LA

Jewelry: Flash Tattoos c/o Candy Apple Boutique | Aussie Ring & Arden Bracelet c/o Kendra Scott

First of all, I am obsessed with all of Yumi Kim’s beautiful prints, and I highly suggest you check out the rest of her collection here–> Yumi Kim Dresses | She has so many stunning options to choose from, but I especially love the Date Night Dress for my petite frame. I’m only 5 ft in case you didn’t already know! Also, I like a lot of color so I paired this dress with bright pink heels and a colorful clutch to really pull out the pink in the print. However, if that’s too much color for you, it looks great with both black and nude ankle strap heels. The black will definitely add a little more edge to the look if that’s what you want to go for and the nude will tone it down.

Just like how you can always count on a little black dress, you can also always depend on a black jumpsuit to keep you looking sophisticated and effortlessly chic. Plus, there are so many different ways to style a black jumpsuit that you can get away with wearing it multiple times in front of the same people.

You can never go wrong with a printed maxi dress!  They’re so easy to dress up and down with the right accessories. You can wear lots of bangles and beaded bracelets with sandals for a casual beach wedding or you can pair your maxi with heels and a fancy clutch for a more formal wedding.

Jewelry: Tanay Necklace c/o Kendra Scott | Azra Ring to Wrist Bracelet, Rings & Chaplin Cuff c/o Gorjana

Hi everyone, today I’m sharing another look from my recent trip to Laguna Beach, CA. I wore this matching striped set to dinner and drinks at sunset with the girls. Unfortunately, this adorable outfit is currently sold out, but I will absolutely post on social media once Candy Apple restocks this set or if I find anything else that looks similar. On the bright side, I did link to a few other super cute striped pieces in my “shop the post” widget above. Make sure to check out the peep-toe summer bootie lineup above as well!

***Update! I found a similar matching set! –> Striped Top & Striped Bottom***

 If you follow me on Instagram, then you know that I used despise the thought of wearing stripes, which is so funny considering how much I’ve grown to love stripes over the past few years. What is a trend that you used to hate, but love now?

Hi everyone, I hope you’re all having a great week so far and if not, at least tomorrow is Friday! Right?

About this look: So… sometimes I like to pretend I’m cooler than I really am. Haha! You’re probably wondering what the heck I’m talking about…I’m referring to festival style! I’m not really that free-spirited, music festival kind of girl, but I LOVE LOVE LOVE that type of cool and effortless boho style! That’s the magic of dressing up though. You can still try new trends and styles even if you’re not that type of girl. Remember playing dress up when you were little? You would never dress in your normal clothes! No! You would dress up like a princess or a rock star and maybe even like your “cool” big sister.  Guess what? You can still do that! You don’t always have to dress your part in life. You can step out of your comfort zone and try something new. It doesn’t hurt to try out a few flash tattoos and some fun boho jewelry with your swimsuit and cover up.  Who knows maybe you’ll love it and even find yourself heading to your first music festival!

Today, I teamed up with Swimspot to bring you some festival style inspiration, but you don’t actually have to go to a music fest to pull off these looks! You can rock these beaded bracelets and delicate Gorjana jewels at the beach while on spring vacation or even to jazz up your denim cutoffs or little black dress. I also love pairing the fringe tote with a flowy dress or boyfriend jeans paired with a classic white tee. As for the Swimspot bathing suit and striped cover up, I know you’ll definitely get a good use out of those this spring and summer!

Now, if you are that fun and free-spirited girl we all envy, you’re gonna want to head over to @Swimspot on Instagram for a chance to win tickets to the ultimate spring  music festival in SoCal! I think you know which one I’m referring to!

High Waisted Bottoms: I’ll touch more on the high waisted bottoms subject later, but I just wanted to say how much I’m loving high-wasited swimsuit bottoms right now. They’re trendy, edgy, retro and modest all at the same time!  I highly recommend trying out a pair when you start swimwear hunting for spring break! I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised! I especially love the Ella Moss Sedona high waist bikini from Swimspot.

Special thanks to Swimspot for sponsoring this post. All opinions are my own.
