Fall Wedding Guest Inspiration
Fall Wedding Guest
Inspiration
The most requested item in my inbox and direct messages right now? Fall wedding guest dresses! Your wish is my command, I shifted a few things around this week, so I could share a few updated picks and where I like to shop wedding guest dresses/special occasion looks.
As I shared in my dress guide from this past spring, the buying and the trying-on process can be draining. Even though it is part of my job to try on clothes, I have to be in the right mood/mindset. A few things that help me get there are doing my hair and makeup. It gives me an instant confidence boost (be careful not to get any residue on the clothes). I also like to have a pair of heels nearby when trying things on. It’s also essential to have properly fitting undergarments (the right size and style of bra can make all the difference in fit in your clothes).
Sometimes, I try on dresses with shapewear to help visualize the outfit and feel how it will be. These tips help me visualize how the look will come together for the occasion! I also like to manage expectations. When I place a big order, I say to myself, “If I find ONE that I feel amazing in, I will call it a win!” If you’re looking for more undergarment solutions, be sure to check out this post of your most frequently asked undergarment questions, as well as this recent SKIMS review.
