Wedding Outfits For Every Season

This time of year is always the time when you start getting prepared for wedding season... Not only in the beautiful spring and summer weather, but also for autumn and winter weddings further afield.

No matter where you are attending a wedding, we have the perfect outfits to make sure you feel and look fab, as well as some great tips for choosing a wedding outfit all year round...

Spring: Floral Perfection
Spring is the perfect time to bust out a print, it lends a seasonal sense of suitability to whatever you wear. This cute as a button ribbon tie dress uses a great floral and a vintage inspired cut. We love the coral tie which adds a little something extra, and remember to pair that light spring dress with a little jacket or cardi to keep warm.
 
When it comes to makeup reach for a tinted moisturiser with a hint of iridescence to make the most of the soft spring light, while a little pink gloss keeps the look polished but not too much.

2: Jane Iradele Tinted Moisturiser $72.00 from Adore
3: Cropped Blazer $69.95 from Just Jeans
4: Lip Glide Gloss $12.99 from Makeup Direct
5: Irregular Choice Peeptoe Flat £27 from Irregular Choice
 
Autumn: Beige and shine
Soft neutral shades paired together with a little bit of sparkle make this outfit a perfect choice for an autumn event. Look for items with a little layering, and play with textures in order to get the sense of luxe you need.
 
I love a semi dark eye for autumn, something that is a little dark but uses colour to lift the look. Instead of creating your smokey eye with black and grey reach for deep olives, blues and navys or pretty purples.
 

 
1: Tiered Gathered Skirt $99.95 from Witchery
2: Metallic Braid Belt $59.99 from Witchery
3: Cherub Top $139.90 from Lippy
4: Harlow Heel $570.00 from Scarpa
5: Laura Mercier Wild Violet Eye Quad $88.00 from Adore
 
Summer: A bit of colour
Summer is the season of cocktail dresses, but it’s easy to make the look more wedding appropriate by swapping out your cocktail dress shoes with a pair of glitzy flats. I love the impact of greens, blues and lemon in summer because they are such quintessential warm weather colours – and jewel tones are always perfect for events.
 
A very neutral pink gloss will lift the lips, whilst a little shimmer on the cheekbones means that when the summer sun hits your face you will simply glow. Perfection!

Mint Jodi Arnold Dress US$291.00 from Net-A-Porter
2: Satin Oyster Clutch $39.95 from Neelear Nomad
3: Napoleon Perdis Mosaic and Puff $45.00 from Napoleon
4: The button It Up Flat US$62.00 from Karmaloop
5: Smashbox O Gloss $40.00 from Adore
 
Winter: Dark and Sheek
Everyone has a LBD in their wardrobe and winter is the perfect time to crack it out for a wedding. Just make sure that the style you choose has a classic touch and glitz it up with colourful or detailed accessories. The shoes we chose feature some amazing glistening detail whilst the clutch is a little bit different.
 
Pull back the hair and do a great thick lash and a fully lined lipstick lip. Choose a darker colour or a browny cinnamon tone to get that polished look. This paired with a nude eye and a little luminosity on the face is the perfect balance between hard and soft.
 

 
1: Frill Neck Dress AU$149.95 from Witchery
2: Laura Mercier $42.00 from Adore Beauty 
3: Muse Heel AU$349.00 from Mimco
