When you receive that invite for nuptials in May, June, July or August, you know exactly what you will wear.  Warm weather calls for bright colors, sassy patterns, couture heels and strappy stilettos.  Long locks, or a sweet up-do – you can take your pick.  The summer weather is so easy to work with that most any gown length, silhouette or style will do!

Dressing for a wedding as a guest, however, is a tad more complex.  Style is naturally the most important factor in selecting what you will wear, but staying stylish and being comfortable is at the top of any lady’s priority list as well.

Needless to say, in an effort to prepare for a wedding, you mustn’t overlook the importance of choosing just the right seasonal color palette and prints.  You’ll need a gown that is flattering and of a weather-appropriate length.  Shoes must be sexy, yet practical.  Accessories become absolutely key, from snagging that perfect clutch to donning a weather-worthy shrug.   Each element is an aspect of your wedding ensemble that can either make or break the entire look.

Let us get you headed in the right direction with a few looks that we feel will leave you looking your wedding best!

Polished Glamour

If you feel prettiest in a very polished, yet glamorous, ensemble, then you’ll love this Dolce & Gabbana figure-slimming dress.  Beautifully tailored, we think the florals in this print are bold enough to make a statement and subtle enough to still feel sweet Pair with pretty leather Valentino pumps  and a sleek cherry colored Saint Laurent Classic Monogramme Clutch  to tie things together.  Sparkling gold accessories like  these dangly earrings.

Classic One Shoulder

Generally, one shoulder gowns are geared towards the spring and summer seasons, but this Lanvin ruffled crepe number braves the elements.  A perfectly suitable and stylish selection for your next wedding ensemble as a guest, Lanvin has chosen a lovely kelly green that is vibrantly fresh and feminine.  If you have a flair for the original like we do, you’ll love the statement ruffle that is artfully balanced with a slight flair at the hem of the gown.  Pair this stunner with shiny gold Sergio Rossi stilettos, dangly pearl earrings and eye-catching pearl bracelets layered one on top of another.  A dazzlingly classy, yet upbeat and trendy, ensemble.  For beauty, think classic Hollywood with voluminous, silky waves.  Sport a nude lip and a soft eye framed by long, lustrous lashes.

 Sensual Metals
