After last night, I think I have officially decided on…
What to Wear: Napa Wedding
Formal wear requests are my least favorite, I have to admit. But I’m here to help! Here is Kathryn:
I enjoy reading your great advice on what to wear, your glimpses into California life, and—of course–your Wedding Wednesday features. So…….This should be right up your alley! My husband and I are invited to a black tie wedding, dinner, and reception in mid-May in Napa Valley. We’re so looking forward to it, but I have no clue what to wear.
I’m willing to spend a bunch to look awesome head to toe. I don’t know, $500 + shoes? Only restrictions would be no yellow or orange because those colors make me look sick. Also, the wedding is at 4:00pm in the “Beaulieu Garden…” I don’t know if that’s inside or outdoors. I want a short dress. I’m petite, 5’3”, blonde. Help!
Kathryn sounds like a Reese-Witherspoon-type to me. Let’s channel her petite, put together red carpet style for this event.
Dress – This emerald green color of this pleated chiffon dress is gorgeous! And perfect for a blonde and a garden event. The cut shouldn’t overwhelm your frame. And it’s something that you could wear again.
Shoes – Gray satin is an elegant match with emerald green.
Clutch – A vintage silver clutch stands out from the crowd.
Earrings – Delicate pearl drops from Anthropologie.
Have a great time in Napa!
