If I can’t style myself for a wedding, styling a reader is almost as fun. Michelle contacted me for a look for an upcoming Fall daytime wedding. Michelle is on a budget since all her money is going into her home (I live in Southern CA too so I hear you sister!) And she recently had a baby so wants something that flatters her “still in recovery mode” figure.

I love the silk dress featured in the look above. Not only is it silk luxurious, it is comfortable. I love the contrast of feminine silk and ruffles with exposed zippers and an origami print. Michelle’s is a daytime wedding but gone are the days of wearing only peach or pastels to a wedding. The wedding is in November so Fall colors are totally appropriate (plus I am a big fan of chocolate brown and graphic prints). I was hoping for under $100 to meet Michelle’s budget guidelines but this dress is just a smidge over and the fact it is silk, on a great sale, and wearable for other occasions (dress up/dress down) makes it a major deal.
I kept the accessories simple and affordable with a suede peep toe pump, black clutch, and fabulous cocktail ring – all under $50 and all great finds for Fall.
Hope you like it Michelle! Keep in mind that a UK size 8 is an American size 6 – the size the model is wearing. (As a rule, for sites like Asos, take your American size and add 2 – that is your UK size.) Cheerio! Mmmmm a pint and some fish and chips sound good right now.
Gorgeous look! Classy and sophisticated!
