WHAT TO WEAR TO ANY WEDDING
Think of the pressure the guests attending Will and Kate’s Royal I do’s must have been under. What the heck does one wear to “The Wedding of the Century?” What to wear to a wedding (royal or not!) is an age old question and with bridal season here People StyleWatch Deputy Editor Joyce Chang has some stylish suggestions.
DAYTIME
From floral prints to soft ruffles, choose a ladylike dress for a perfectly girlie look. Dresses that highlight your waist are feminine, fun and always appropriate. Opt for pretty shades and patterns in cheery colors, in keeping with the mood of the happy event.
Daytime outfits can be worn with neutral shoes for a polished look that isn’t too dressy. If the ceremony is inside, you can go more traditional in heels. Flats are best if you’re going to be in the grass or sand. Try a metallic flat sandal to give your dress a more special feel.
A cute clutch in a woven material adds texture to an outfit.
EVENING
Luxe fabrics and gorgeous colors are a great way to go glam without being over-the-top. Try a one-shoulder style for a bold, on-trend look. Go dramatic without being too sexy in dresses with notice-me details that aren’t ultra bare work best. Black is always appropriate but don’t be afraid to have fun with color. To lend a festive feel to your outfit, add a rich touch with shiny fabrics, romantic details and sparkly accents.
Pair your evening look with standout heels that feel celebration-ready in metallics, satin and sparkle.
A fancy clutch with gold, ruffles or bows is worthy of a special occasion.
IF IT GETS COLD
You can keep away chills with versatile but refined cover-ups. Scarves in pale, pretty shades lend a sophisticated look and can be wrapped around your neck or shoulders. Sweaters in lightweight fabrics won’t add extra bulk. Try drapey, no-button styles for a polished look that’s perfect for Spring and Summer.
