Wedding Wednesday: Fabulous Fashion For The Mother Of The Bride



Ahhh, to be the Mother Of The Bride! I have never been one, but I know I would just be darling at it. (wink). Two rules to follow: Do not wear the same color as the bride, and make sure the color you choose compliments the overall wedding party color palette. This edit is not your "run of the mill" look that one might find at a bridal shop. Not my style.  I say, sure it's your daughters day, but you can have a "fashion moment," too. So enjoy this modern mix that offers a youthful spirit for all types of Moms and wedding venues.

Sequined-Lace Jacket and Cocktail Dress
Be a shining star at your child's wedding! This look is conservative but still chic, and very on trend in metallic.

Temperley London Josette Gown
This is one WOW dress! I couldn't love a gown any better. Pale pink silk with a beaded grey overlay equals drama and sophistication. Crazy expensive but worth it.

The perfect cocktail suit. The detail on the skirt is really gorgeous, and i love the mix of textures.

What a chic choice for an afternoon wedding. The perforated suede bodice is softened with a flowing silk skirt. Very sophisticated!

Teri Jon Jacquard Trumpet Gown
This dress is rather dramatic in the softest of ways. Go ahead, be the golden girl!
Saks Off 5th

Loving this beautiful black and white dress with all of its' amazing details. Unless you are a very edgy Mom, I think I would trade out the booties for a pretty pump. Now on sale!

 Alexander McQueen Kimono-Sleeve Midi Dress
Colorblock chic. This is a sensation in silk and perfect for the fashion forward Mom. Change out the gladiator shoes for pumps and you have a more conservative look.

Donna Karan Cape Gown
My own Mother wore brown to my wedding. It was the perfect compliment to the all ivory color palette.
This look is draped to perfection, and just may cover what needs to be covered. Now on sale at

 St. John Collection Feather and Beaded Dress and Jacket
For the Mom that wants to be chic AND fun. St. John usually leans conservatively, but this suit is also whimsical. It's actually a lovely look for a church wedding. The sleeveless dress and jacket are sold individually.
