What To Wear To A Fall Wedding

{ Via: Tiffany LaBelle }

I've been missing in action because I attended a wonderful wedding in Wisconsin.  If you can believe, I also missed another fabulous fall wedding the same day. Certainly sad about that. The guests dressed to the nines at this black tie optional event. I loved the fashion show down the aisle. Here's inspiration for all of your own autumn affairs and dress codes.

~ Black Tie Optional ~

This is your cue to dress up! If your guy is wearing a tux, sequins and beaded gowns are all allowed and encouraged.

The Phaedra Gown
This gown is all about the color and the sparkle! Don't be afraid to shine.

Sachin & Babi  and Veri Shop

Daniela Silk Dress

This dress comes in five colors, but this pattern feels like fall. It is modern with a youthful spirit.

Reformation

Marcella New York Valeria Dress

A budget look at under $180. I think it looks so much more expensive. It's made from a ponte kni, which is less likely to wrinkle.

 Nordstrom

LaDouble J Magnifico Dress

And magnificent it is. Anything from this Italian brand is always eye catching. Made from silk twill, it's just stunning. Love the use of color on the hemline and back neckline.

Shopbop

Open Back Dress With Flared Skirt

Here's another budget buy at $120. Add sparkling earrings and a pair of heels, and you are party perfect.

H & M

~ Cocktail Attire ~

By all means, dress up. Honor the married couple by looking good. Suits or sportscoats and ties for men. Midi's, mini's, suits, and pants suits  for the women. In other words, look put together.

Callope Dress and Coat

There's nothing quite like a chic cocktail set. In this case the pieces are sold separately. The coat would be so wearable worn over a LBD.

Sachin & Babi

Simkhai Leather Topped Maxi

Leather weather. One of my favorites. It's faux leather but who will really know, and who cares? This dress has the cool factor from head to toe.

Moda Operandi

Sequin Roxy Dress
Your LBD with sparkles on it.

Tuckernuck

Acler Hatchford Dress
Oh yes, pleats please! A beautiful sunflower shade with a super dressy look.

Anthropologie

Halston Geo Painted Velvet Gown

I just love everything about this gorgeous gown. It's a perfect fall look. Great even without any bling.

Nordstrom

The Buckle Up Silk Organza Dress
Sensational in burgundy silk organza. Other colors available.

 Cynthia Rowley

~ A Fall Outdoor Wedding ~

An outdoor wedding is likely to be more casual. So think being fall fashion forward but not glitzy.

Liza Dress
With a bold print and fabulous fringe, Liza will take you many places. Perfect for an outdoor autumn affair. The flats are cute with the dress and practical, too.

Cara Cara New York

Tulle Top & Skirt

With a feminine appeal, this look is delightful for evening or daytime special occasions. The tulle is terrific.

Me & Em

Significan Other Demi Column Gown
A midi made for weddings and any event where you want to look dressed up. The color is so fall. If it is a cool day, just add a wonderful wrap.

Anthropologie

Silvia Tcherassi Ananya Dress

With fabulous details, this dress looks like fall. Love the long sleeves and draped skirt.  So good for an afternoon outdoor wedding.

Saks Fifth Avenue  and  Shopbop

Cinq a Sept Ranier Pant & Jacket

Party perfect and ready  to shine in satin with gold buttons. One could also wear this to anything with a cocktail dress code. 25% off with Code: 1FF25

Fabulous Fall Fashion Under $200

Wedding Wednesday: What To Wear To An Autumn Affair

{ Via: Tiffany LaBelle }

This post was born when my friend and illustrator, Tiffany LaBelle, first posted the stylish sketch above on her Instagram feed. If you love fashion and fabulous art, you should be following Tiffany.  The minute I receive a wedding invitation, one of the first things that comes to mind, is what will I wear. You, too?  One of my favorite style quotes is "Being well dressed is a beautiful form of politeness." So do dress up for the event. It's always wise to shop your closet, but even more fun to pick out something new. Celebrate love, romance and good style.

HERE: 15 Festive Finds

Marchese Notte Midi
From the Resort 2018 collection. You'll find this red hot number only at
Neiman Marcus 

BB Dakota
The Gretel dress is the fun younger sister of the dress Beyoncé wore in her Lemonade video. That shouldn't stop you from being the ray of sunshine at your next wedding. Very reasonably priced.
Nordstrom

Tiara Dotted Illusion Midi 
Never have I seen an Alexis style that I didn't like, but this one I love. It's fresh, elegant and has a sexy sweetness.
Neiman Marcus

Red Floral Dress
No wallflower here. As you may know, this Fall, florals are blooming everywhere. 
Boston Proper

Tuxedo Jacket

Dresses aren't the only things that can steal the show. Borrow from the boys and don a fitted dinner jacket.

Boston Proper

Elevated Accessories

A wedding is no place for your every day brown shoes and shoulder bag. Even if you are wearing your fave LBD, it can be elevated with the right accessories. Jon Jose's satin and pearl heels are perfect for those who can't do a stiletto. A beaded bag adds just the right amount of sparkle.

Emerald Dress

A really fabulous dress with style for days.
