It seems like all at once, everyone around me started getting married. I guess thatās what happens when youāre in your thirties (Iām now 31 and still canāt get used to saying Iām in my thirties); everyone is either engaged, married, or having babies. I am not good at changing diapers or properly holding a newborn baby (my family always makes fun of me for that), but I do love a good wedding. So, maybe you should wait to have me babysit until your child is a toddler ā after that, I can be your go-to girl ā but I will happily attend your wedding and bring you a nice gift.
Speaking of go-tos: I have a handful of wedding guest dresses for such occasions, depending on the time, place, and level of fanciness. And by handful, I mean three: a little black cocktail dress, a vintage 60s pastel chiffon number, and a fancy 50s midi dress with a nipped in waist and crinoline skirt. What I was missing in that rotation, however, was a more casual dress for a daytime, outdoor wedding. Being that Iām originally from sunny South Florida, there are a lot of thoseā¦and hereās what Iāve learned to avoid: synthetic fabrics, skinny heels, and restrictive garments (aka leave the shapewear at home). I picked up this ModCloth āField Day Offā dressĀ and Ā āFloat You Forget About Meā heels from ModClothās Wedding Guest section, with the intention of filling that void. It may not be your usual wedding guest attire, but itās perfect for those summery, outdoor weddings because 1) the dress is 100% cotton, which means itās breathable and 2) the heels are just sturdy enough so that they wonāt sink in the ground, and are comfortable enough to dance in. And whatās a wedding without dancing?
