Wedding Wear

November 29, 2012

A couple of weekends ago, we headed to a wedding of some family friends of fiances. I always enjoy weddings off season because I like seeing how the bride envisioned her non-spring/summer dream world. It was such a fun time, and I definitely saw some Pinterest inspired ideas, some of which I plan on using as well.

On another note, I always struggle this time of year with wearing tights of not. This particular day it was about 60 degrees, so even though it’s mid November, I opted out for tights. My mom would be ashamed of me…sorry ma.

::Shoes Jessica Simpson, Blazer Target (similar here and here), Dress Rachel Roy via Macys, Jewelry Macys Banana Republic David Yurman::

I took the jacket off to boogie down as the night progressed, but none of the pictures are quality enough to show, sorry!

What do you think, should I have made my mother proud and worn tights? What’s your go to winter wedding gear? Im just glad I don’t have to pick an outfit to wear for our wedding, it’s going to be cold!

    I think you were fine without tights since it was so warm. If it were in the 50s or below, I would have added them. But I like this look!

    This is a great look! I struggle with the tights/no tights thing, but I think you can totally not wear them.

    I think the no tights were fine considering how warm it is! I'd kill for it to be 60 right now, btw!

    I know, right!? The tights or no tights question is a common theme with me too. You could definitely go either way with this look.
    I really love this dress. Both the texture and color are delightful!
    have a lovely day

    This is a great wedding outfit! Honestly, it gets SO hot at parties like that that I feel like you wouldn't even need tights. You made a good choice!

    I'm a huge fan of pairing blazers with dresses. Regardless of the time of year, you've got to dress according to the weather. I doubt I would've worn tights either.

    I am totally with you on the whole to wear or not to wear tights. It's cold in the morning, but hot in the afternoons…it confuses me 🙂 Needless to say pants are a staple right now.

    I loooove the color of that dress!

    Love your outfit. Dont' worry about the tights. My mother in law was appalled that i didn't wear them on my wedding day, which happened to be in August. YOu have to wear what you're comfortable with. If you're not comfortable, people will notice.

    I love the ruffles on your dress! I can't wait to attend weddings, I feel like because I'm still young, no one around me is in that stage of life where they're getting ready to tie the know.. 🙁 but I feel like it would be such a fun event to go to!
