Is the little black dress appropriate to wear to a summer wedding?
As May breezes by and June quickly approaches, the wedding season is right around the corner. What to wear to a wedding is always a challenge unless the invitation indicates to the guest the type of attire expected with phrases such as “black tie” or “formal.” Although most people tend to shy away from wearing black to weddings for fear of giving the newly wedded couple bad luck, ironically the little black dress also known as the LBD, is now quickly becoming one of the most popular colors for bridesmaids dresses. The LBD is a great way to bring modern sophistication to an after-five wedding especially when worn with metallic slingback heels. For weddings taking place earlier in the afternoon, wearing a LBD with brightly colored accessories such as red, yellow or even white will soften the look giving the dress a more daytime feel.
