Remember when May, June and July were THE months to have a wedding?? Does anyone else feel like the new “it” months are September, October and November?? I think people are starting to catch on to the fact that the spring months were wayyyy expensive, not to mention HOT– and every year, my husband and I find that more and more wedding invites pour in for Fall.  I wore this look to a wedding this past weekend, and it truly was one of my fave wedding looks ever.  I’ve done the LBD thing 74373738 times to weddings, as have you and everyone else– black is safe, no danger of competing with the bride– but the problem is you are literally one of the 74646399034 other girls there wearing black.  I’m OBSESSED with this slightly Asian-inspired, jacquard dress from Zara (linked below) because the material definitely says evening event, but the shape and textures are unexpected.  I decided to pair it with my gold and black striped pumps from J.Crew to add a contrast in patterns and therefore, extra interest to the look (complemented with gold accessories, of course!)  I’ve rounded up some of my fave fall appropriate wedding guest dresses out there right now, and two pairs of funky patterned pointed pumps (fall approps cocktail shoe to sharpen the look) that will pair with literally any of the dresses there–in various price ranges that you will DEF stand out in, have fun wearing, and have zero chance of provoking dagger eyes from the bride– not a little black dress in sight, so take the plunge!

Happy fall wedding season!

xo, ❤
