Casual Wedding Wear

     This weekend I am headed back home for a wedding! My old babysitter is getting married in a beautiful park just outside of town. This unique location brings a couple of challenges.

     First, as in any wedding, how casual/formal to dress? Public park typically means casual. Also, check where they are registered, if it's REI and Amazon, it's a casual affair.

     Second, park means grass, so don't wear heels; if it is at all appropriate, wear flats. Even wedges are simply unpleasant to walk in on grass. Weddings require lots of standing and walking so don't set yourself up for achilles surgery at 25 and wear sandal or ballet flats.


Dress: Forever 21 Essential Buttoned Shift -- My new fave for the office and drinks, read more about it here
Watch: Kate Spade
Shoes: Mudd
Sweater: J. Crew Merino


     I'm headed to at least one more wedding this fall and even though it is more formal, I might try to wear this dress again.
