Wedding Fashion: Engagement Party

Yay! You’re engaged and it’s time to celebrate with your nearest and dearest. Whether you’re having a catch up with your besties over dinner or a full blown party at your parent’s, there is definitely room for a new outfit (before you start saving up for the wedding).

One trend that took over this summer has to be polished nudes. Personally, I love this look because it can fit into any occasion and there are some lovely ways to bring look from work to evening… perfect for an engagement party!

To make this look pop, try mixing interesting fabrics or a splash of colour. Nudes are all about understated classics and attention to detail. This look can be as girly as you want to make it, so add pretty bows and florals where appropriate. Juxtapose this look with a little leather or bangles for a harder edge.

Many people may not consider two shades of nude when putting together an outfit like this, but, it can create a more edgy look. Look for something with a light nude on top and something darker on bottom for a work to evening crossover, This way you can dress it up or down, depending on the evening’s celebrations!
