Memorial Day marks the beginning of summer, and with that, lots and lots of weddings. I don't know about you guys, but I LOVE weddings. Dressing up, being surrounded by happy people, and dancing the night away with family and friends makes for a great weekend. Figuring out what to wear as a wedding guest can be a challenge sometimes though. You're not supposed to wear white (what are your thoughts on this??! I go back and forth on the issue), I try and stay away from the color that the bridesmaids are wearing, and you don't want to be too dressy or too casual. A lace midi dress is always a good option though - the length of the dress is appropriate for any type of wedding, the lace overlay is pretty and feminine, and a fun color like this emerald green makes a "wow" statement. With the lining of this dress being shorter than the lace overlay, it creates a younger vibe, making this silhouette an option for all ages. I paired this dress with a simple nude heel - not only does this elongate your legs, but I didn't want to take away from the gorgeousness of the dress. It is a statement all on its own! I found this specific style on clearance at The Limited, but I've seen great options at Express and Lulu's lately. Happy wedding season loves! xoxo
