Four Wedding Guest Dresses for Summer (that come in multiple color options!)

I know wedding guest dresses are something I am always asked about, so I found four dresses that are absolutely perfect for a summer wedding.

I went with two pretty classic LBDs (little black dresses) and two that are colorful, brighter, and a bit bolder! All four dresses come in other color options so definitely check the links out to see the other shades.

I am 5’1” and around 100 lbs, so these dresses obviously work for petite ladies, but I feel like most of these dresses would work for everyone. The only one that may be short on taller ladies is the slip dress, but that also comes in a midi length (that has even more color options) that I’ll link as well.

I will link each dress/outfit after the photos of each dress.

A slip dress is super classic for a wedding! I am wearing a black one (this dress comes in 5 colors!) and I paired it with my go-to black bag and fun strappy gold heels and gold jewelry.

I will also link the midi option for my taller girls (which comes in 17 colors!).

This asymmetrical neckline dress from Amazon is a great option as a wedding guest dress, and it’s epseically handy if you need a dress quickly because it’s prime shipping.

I love the red, but it also comes in 10 colors. I am wearing a size small here but need to size down to an xs. I paired it with tan heels and it would also look great with gold or black!

This faux wrap dress is a super comfy and complimentary option! I like how the faux wrap flatters the stomach area and I love that you can wear a regular bra with it.

This dress comes in 7 great colors. I paired it with strappy black heels, gold jewelry, and again, my go-to black bag.

I’m obsessed with this green color lately! It’s so fun and bright. The faux wrap on this is great & the slit makes it a sexier option!

If you’re a bride, this dress also comes in white and would be perfect for your rehearsal dinner, your wedding shower, or your bachelorette party! I paired this dress with strappy gold heels, a fun beaded clutch bag and gold jewelry.

5 ways to layer a white tee & jeans for winter

A white tee & jeans is a great base for pretty much any season and time of the year. if I don’t know what to wear, a good place to start is putting on these two items and going from there.

Layering items, changing out shoes, and adding different accessories changes up the look entirely and certainly proves that you don’t need a whole lot of different clothes to have a versatile wardrobe. I’m wearing a short sleeve tee shirt in these photos, but I think a long sleeve tee would work as well, and it would add some extra warmth.

I will link each outfit below each photo. I do use affiliate links and this just means that if you purchase something using these links, I make a small commission at no additional cost to you. It helps support this blog and my family and I always appreciate it. Thank you!

The first look is layering a cardigan sweater over a white tee. I chose to button mine up, but you could also leave it unbuttoned if you prefer. This cardigan is part of a matching set from Amazon and I’m a big fan of this color.

I paired the cardigan with my Birkenstock Boston clogs and some layered necklaces.

This look turned out better than I expected— a black denim jacket with black Chelsea boots and a black leather purse. I love how simple it is, but it feels super put together. I think changing the denims out would look really great too (a blue denim jacket and black jeans). T

his jacket is from Kut from the Kloth and is very comfy with a good amount of stretch to it.

For this look, I just layered this taupe brown sweater over a white tee. I’m a big fan of how the collar of a white tee looks when it peeks out from under a crewneck. This sweater is 100% cotton and one of my favorites from Quince— it comes in so many colors.

To keep it matching and functional, I wore my blundstone boots. These are the 1306 boots in rustic brown. I have oiled them with mink oil several times, so they do look darker than when I originally bought them.

These last two outfits are the same outfit with two different scarves— I am really into a bright pop of fun color lately, but I know not everyone is, so I wanted to add a neutral option as well.

I truly love both outfits and would wear each of them, depending on how I’m feeling and wanting to look. Both scarves are from Amazon and two of my favorites. The shacket is also from Amazon and I own it in this green and also the taupe color.

I know it’s controversial, but I like to wear my bearpaw slippers as shoes out and about. I feel like they match my cozy, comfy, casual vibe and they’re also super cute.

If you’d like to save this post and graphic for inspiration for later, at the top left of each photo there should be an option to “save” on Pinterest.

Let me know if you’d enjoy a part 2 of styling a white tee and jeans. In my opinion, the style opportunities are endless!

Nine Ways to Wear a Black Satin Slip Skirt

To be honest, I didn’t think slip skirts were for me. I felt like they showed too much of my imperfections (aka–my lower “mom pooch”), and I didn’t really think I could find any ways to style them that I would like.
I decided to try one and much to my surprise, I love it! Sure, it may highlight my lower stomach a bit, but it’s extremely comfortable and the fabric is so fun! The black makes it super versatile, and the longer length is perfect for the cooler months. This skirt is from OGL Move (use MARISSA15 for $$ off), but I will also link similar options.

I LOVE this textured top from amazon (it’s a Free People lookalike) and the duster cardigan makes it appropriate for the cooler weather. I added boots for warmth as well! This outfit is linked HERE.

This tie strap tank is older (so I linked a similar bodysuit), but this look is perfect for a holiday party or fancier event. The heels add some shine and interest as well! This outfit is linked HERE.

I love warm cognac browns and think they pair so nicely with black. The matching of the sweater, boots, and bag ties it all together nicely. This outfit is linked HERE.

This outfit is comfy yet cute! This cardigan is already a workhorse in my wardrobe, I’ve worn it a ton in the short time I’ve had it. I would also wear this outfit with taupe boots! This outfit is linked HERE.

You can’t go wrong with all black and I love adding pops of cognac to an otherwise monochromatic outfit. This outfit is linked HERE.
