Wedding Guests Style..what to wear!



I don't know about you girls but when it comes to weddings I find it tricky to find a nice dress.
I think every girl is looking for something unique and different and is in fear of showing up in the same dress as another guest, and it has happened.
When it comes to weddings, I believe there is an etiquette for what a wedding guest wears and there are rules ladies!
Brides can be unpredictable once the actual wedding day rolls around. As a guest, it is best to steer clear of the hazard zone. This can be easily accomplished by following a simple fashion standard: do not wear white. If bridezilla awakens, you will safely be out of the line of fire and rightly so in the brides case! Stay away from wearing a white/off white or Cream dress or cream anything, this is a no no, white should be the exclusive prerogative of the bride.
Follow the dress code ladies, if it says black tie optional the safer choice is to wear a cocktail or dress suitable for black tie.


Don't have the hemline too short, just doesn't look appropriate, your not on a girls not out ladies your at a wedding albeit its a party and good fun its still not a night out!

You can also rent dresses if you feel you don't want to buy one. Sometimes when you purchase a dress for a wedding you tend to only wear it once or twice.You can hire beautiful designer pieces.

Rental is normally €80 -€165 depending on the dress (designer) and I would recommend this if you have a really close friend getting married and you want something different.
Covet -The Borrowers Boudoir (Powercourt Center Dublin) have these
Navy Cap Sleeve Badgley Mischka Dress
