Spring/summer weddings - what to wear

It's that time of year when the invites begin rolling in and the spring/summer weddings start filling up your diary. Unless you're a bridesmaid and have had your frock picked out for you, you're going to have to get yourself a new outfit, but where do you start?

The main points to remember is that you don't want to a) overshadow the bride or b) be mistaken for her, so this usually means that anything long and white is off the menu. Be sure to find out what the bride and groom are planning to wear so that can coordinate and compliment their outfits.

Summer weddings- what Lipsy dress to wear

Weddings are all about romance so go for feminine floral pieces or invest in spring/summer's fairytale trend. The pleated fold detail dress will take you from day to night with ease and can be worn again and again.

Nude is a great shade for weddings as it's soft and subtle and may well coordinate with the bridesmaid outfits. Try our one shoulder drape dress with satin waistband for fairytale romance.

Summer weddings- what Lipsy dress to wear

If you want something a little different and stand-out, go for a floor-skimming dress such as the VIP beaded maxi dress or beaded empire line maxi dress - wear with strappy sandals in the day and change into killer heels for the evening do. The metallic strappy peep toes heels are the perfect wedding shoes.

When it comes to accessories, add a unique twist to your look with hair detail. Try the boho floral garland hairband, as seen on Pixie Lott, or the more traditional beaded leaf headband. And choose contemporary feminine pieces such as the enamel flower earrings, bird and flower charm bracelet or floral cuff.

And the perfect piece to set off any wedding outfit? A hot date of course - if you don't have a man, bag one on the dancefloor.
