Another Bridal Shower? Dress it up!

Monday, June 20th, 2011
Katie knows that bridal showers can become monotonous.  I mean, how many of us really like to watch anyone open present after present after … snooooooooooze!  But, a bridal shower is a special occasion for the bride-to-be.  Whether it’s a sibling, cousin, niece or friend Katie knows you should dress up to celebrate the day.

Diane von Furstenberg: the patron saint of the perfect dress.  You will NEVER go wrong when you put on a DVF.  Her Oblixe Combo Greek Vertical Sleeveless Dress is new for summer: a print s sleeveless dress with v-neckline with a solid black waistband with a tassel rope belt. It’s a wrap skirt with pockets!

If you’re the MOTB, try the DVF Deianira Long Sleeve Wrap Print Dress in Greek Blue.  It has a relaxed cord-wrapped waist and hits just above the knee.  You’ll photograph well and look oh-so chic as you celebrate your daughter’s upcoming nuptials. 


Alice + Olivia is giving us so many cool solids, patterns and sequins to choose from this summer.  Take it from the bridal shower to the bach without missing a beat!


The Michael Stars Sleeveless Surplice Dress is so comfortable you’ll never want to take it off.  It hits right above the knee with a sweet, flirty skirt and comes in a bunch of great colors.  With thin straps and an empire waist, this 100% cotton, machine-washable sundress can be dressed up with some bright bling, like Alexis Bittar earrings and bangles! 

 

Super-long dresses are very now and I simply love the Michael Stars Sleeveless Scoop Neck Racerback Dress.  No need to add a belt to this 100% Cotton dress – it has a waistline tie that gives any woman a beautiful silhouette.   Michael Stars dresses are tres affordable – less than $100!
If you are pear shaped, this stunner will flatter you like no other dress.   This Black Label by Paul Smith Sleeveless Print Dress in Multi has removable spaghetti straps and a fab structure that won’t restrict your movement.
If you are the bride-to-be, pick up this amazing LWD (little white dress) from Haute Hippie at KNIT WIT. With 18 covered buttons, this sleeveless silk-gauze dress is covered in gorgeous, intricate embroidery. The ruching at the waist is so flattering and I love the Asian-inspired, stand-up collar.

 

Some of you may think that putting on a dress is work. Au contraire my little darlings! Katie knows slipping into a dress is a simple and easy way to look fab for your bestie’s bridal shower.

Kisses,

Katie
