A WEDDING GUEST- RUFFLES & LACE INSPIRATION

FEMININE LACE OR RUFFLES

The summer weddings are always such a special time, from close friends or relations that are tying the knot . It is perhaps the one time you really dress up for a special occasion.

From a casual affair, like a beach wedding or a classic church wedding. seeing what the guests wear is always interesting and exciting. Thinking about the royal wedding and the styles that were eye popping from the bright yellow outfit worn by Amal or the mega floral print dress of Princess Diana's niece and many others. It can be a nerve wracking wondering what to wear or whether it is worth spending a lot on a dress that is maybe a one time thing.

Here are some ideas that are stylish and not overly pricey.
From maxi dresses to party styles, these are some styles I would certainly wear. not just for a wedding events.

For the Beach party

Floral or flowy dresses are comfortable and something one can wear over and over, not just one time.
From a maxi dress, slip dress or off shoulder styles, a nice casual look that is also comfortable.

Adore red and with this maxi you can dress it up with some great earrings and bracelets. A nice long scarf with some sparkle i.e., sequins.

Off the shoulder tops have been big for a few seasons and I say , hurray. Its a style feminine that we can all wear.

A perfect pink number. Simple slip dress with a floral design is made for summer.

CLASSIC LOOKS

Formal long or short dresses from a simple sheath dress or full length lace one will be special for a very special occasion.

Elegant Lace dresses long or short a lovely feminine look that can be worn more then once.

SATINS or CHIFFON

shades of soft pastels or rich colours , of emerald or blue.

A simple satin slip dress under a nice coat just right for a church wedding,

Well I do love a wedding and all that it means, romance , gorgeous floral bouquets and of course the happy couple.

INSTAGRAM REAL STARS?

WONDER IF SHE IS REAL? How many people follow their favourite instagram and feel perhaps this is what a real person looks like and maybe lives like. I am not talking celebrities like Rihanna or Kardashians or any of the other major celebrities . I am not a big follower of instagram, but for those that are there are a few surprises such as one very popular Instagram Star is actually a virtual reality image, not a REAL person. These computer generated images look so real that people are actually thinking it is a real person. Something strange about that , if someone is able to fool people in such a way Firstly it is not stated this is not a real person This to me is funny. with all the talk about fake news etc. So why is it allowed to have computer generated images allowed to be part of? Okay maybe its like following a cartoon hero, i.e. SUPERMAN or WONDERWOMAN - but this we know are only characters not REAL PEOPLE. These so called stars gorgeous , flawless and h

CAMOUFLAGE STYLES// Fashion, designer

SOMETHING DIFFERENT I have to say I love color and prints, and when I saw the work of this Kenyan photographer Thandiwe Murui , I was in AWE. Such vibrant prints that make a statement . The prints or the checkerboard are definitely eye- catching. ( I happen to have a checkerboard top that I wear as a coverup) This might not be for everyones taste, but sometimes it is fun to be a bit wilder! THE SWIRLS love this print and the colour combination . Vibrant and fun! A MOD- FLORAL this print that looks like a Sunflower is perfect for summer.
