By Caroline Ferry, 1 May 2017
Declaring snazzy season officially open! You’re going to need some srsly smart get-ups for the summer of wedding guesting which lies ahead, and here you’ll find ten of the very best buys…
1. Birdwoman
The all-in-one equivalent to a red carpet gown, this sultry yet v elegant jumpsuit will be your favourite fashion +1 at the glut of summer weddings.
2. Hey halterneck
Proper posh parties call for dresses with a bit of extra oomph, and this one ticks a lot of boxes on that front. Plus, the full skirt lends itself well to sitting down too (blessed) and that 90s neckline is everyone's friend, fact.
3. Match point
Wallflowers need not apply: co-ordinate like a goddam pro in this so un-minimalist pairing, guaranteed to brighten up everyone's day, fact.
4. Dress de-code
Be it your best mates wedding, your graduation, prom, whatever, you don't have to wear a dress if your trews are as next-level as these printed culottes. Make sure your top is equally as luxe to look your ultimate.
5. Finishing touches
Often overlooked, a fancy jacket will not let the side (read, your chic-as look) down. Plus, it'll come in handy if the weather continues to be unhinged for when that big day rolls round.
6. Such a Carrie
They're ladylike, with a vintage feel and plenty of fashion pow (read: practically perfect. For non-grass based events, that is).
7. Pink power
It looks like there's a lot going on in this embroidered smock dress, but essentially it's jut a really flattering, easy-to-throw-on instant outfit (which is particularly handy if you're travelling abroad, hand-luggage-only).
8. Hear me
Can't decide on what jewellery goes with your guest garms and looking v sassy is high on your priority list? Blind side 'em with serious ear candy that both goes with everything and nothing. Easy.
9. MO: jumpsuits forever
Some people are just jumpsuit people, end of. If a wonder onesie is what you're after pick a pretty floral one like this which is undisputedly fancy, and will work with flat sandals for brunch after the big day. Thrifty really.
10. Shine on sister
Pack a party punch in totally embellished mules which were made to sass up your favourite LBD. Or jeans. Or your work threads. Ok we just love them.
