Happy Friday, darlings!
Spring is here, which means that wedding season is quickly approaching. In preparation for this busy time, I’m talking about my favorite and most important wedding accessory. See what it is below!
Wedding Ready: Wedding Guest Dress
Outfit Details:
Dress: Chicwish (similar here and here)| Shoes: Anthropologie (similar here) | Clutch: Inge Christopher c/o (Get 20% off sitewide with LIZZIE20 until 4/30)| Necklace
The first sign of sunny days, blooming flowers and chirping birds introduces not only Springtime, but another season…wedding season! To ensure that you’re the best dressed guest (aside from the bride, of course!), a statement piece is essential to standing out. My favorite go-to statement piece is a good clutch! A clutch is necessary for holding belongings such as your phone, lipstick, credit cards, cash, mints and other personal items (this one actually has two pockets!). It’s both functional and stylish! My favorite clutches are the ones that really stand out…think embellishments, fringe detailing, fun prints, sparkle, pops of color…or in my case, a bow! I won’t lie, the moment I saw the bow on the front of this Inge Christopher clutch, I was sold. It’s a fun and phone friendly clutch that can be dressed down for a lunch date or dressed up for a more formal event, such as a wedding or party. I also love the fact that even though it has a pattern on it, the stripes are subtle enough to match a variety of things without being overwhelming.
Of course, with plus size wedding dresses becoming so popular these days, you need something that makes you stand out as a guest. The world has changed a lot even from ten years ago, and the designs are improving all the time. There are even options for people like me attending the wedding that make us feel comfortable, no matter our size or the setting.
For my wedding guest dress look, I wanted to have a bit of fun with my outfit! You all know how much I love embroidery, so this dress was a perfect match. It’s absolutely stunning (and flattering) with it’s fit and flare shape and I just love the mesh overlay with the embroidered details. The clutch adds the fun element of pattern mixing without being too out there. I kept the rest of my outfit fairly simple yet sophisticated by adding grey glitter cap toe heels, an adorable silver bow ring, a sparkly silver bracelet and a marble jeweled necklace. Looks like I’m wedding ready 🙂
What is your wedding guest accessory?
Happy Easter!!!

What a GORGEOUS dress and clutch! Even though it is striped, the stripes are neutral! Perfect styling!
I love good shoes for a wedding. They can’t be TOO crazy because then you can’t dance all night!

Love the embroidery, so pretty. I’m going to say a good clutch for my wedding accessory. Plus an extra pair of shoes to change into when your heels are no longer comfy!

This navy floral dress is gorgeous and looks beautiful on you!!!
Beautiful dress! I love the colour- the floral print really stands out against it. Finding a bag that looks good and holds everything is always my biggest dilemma for a wedding. Your striped one looks fab with the floral print dress.
