Part 1: It's Wedding TIME!

What to wear to the reception?

ALL OF MY FRIENDS ARE GETTING MARRIED. I love it. I get to do my hair and find a fabulous dress, maybe even say a speech while crying to love ones (my ultimate fave)!

Recently, I attended a Florida wedding where I felt I had to go bold in colors. I wanted to bring out the teal, pink and purple to represent my hometown well.

Here is an example of my 'reception wear':

 

*Keep in mind that this was in Florida during the month of October. If we were in NYC, there would be a blazer and leather involved. Being in tune with seasons and the change of location is impotant in maintaining your fashionable attire while traveling. Why? Because you want to be fashionable in every location not just in "your safe zone" of Manhattan.

 Dress, Express: size M / Shoes, Aldo: size 7 1/2 / Purse, Christian Louboutin

 

(*I wasn't very impressed with this dress in photos. It stretched ut and made me look wider than in person. Boo.)

*This is my brother and he is taken ladies

 

Moral of the story, do a test run with your wedding reception dress and make sure it photographs the way you like. Also, dress for the location and weather of the wedding. Don't just wear whatever works in your 'home' location.
