Fashion Friday: That's a Wrap!

We've got all wrapped up with today's Fashion Friday - and we don't just mean figuratively!

Today we were inspired by this gorgeous wrap dress from House of Fraser. But instead of accessorising it the way we normally would - we thought we'd show two ways to wear this look: dressed down (left) and dressed up (right). This shows just how versatile this look could be, whether you're headed for a daytime wedding with afternoon tea, or an evening candlelit soiree.

For all our Fashion Friday posts visit our Pinterest page or follow us on Polyvore.

Dress: House of Fraser, £29
Sandals: 2B, £15
Pumps: Whistles, £115
Clutch (left): Aldo, £21
Clutch (right): Jimmy Choo, £880

Fashion Friday: Pink Lemonade

Today for Fashion Friday we're celebrating that hint of summer that's peeking around the corner (even if the weather's dreary). This pink lemonade themed look goes pretty bold (or pretty AND bold, as we like to think of it) pairing pink and yellow. But if done well - why not!? This spring or summer ensemble will be perfect for your next wedding.

Fashion Friday: Collar Me Beautiful

Today for Fashion Friday we're featuring one of our favourite trends of late: collars. A collared dress is timeless and classic, and can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion. The dresses below are beautiful examples of the collared look on their own, but they can also be fancied up a little bit more with any one of the collar necklaces shown below.

We took particular inspiration from the yellow Christopher Kane dress on the left. Though a dress above £600 might be outside of most of our budgets, a very similar look can be achieved by pairing a bit of extra collar bling with a simple coloured gown.

The collar necklaces can also turn a simple dress (sans collar) into something more wedding-worthy, by just adding that little bit extra.

Fashion Friday: Elegant Separates

Today we welcome back Fashion Friday after its winter hiatus. Our first outfit of the year will hopefully give you some inspiration to look at options for mixing and matching your wardrobe while attending weddings this year. With the emphasis being so much on finding the perfect dress (not only for the bride - but for the guests), it's easy to overlook separates as an option for wedding attire, but at what a loss! Separates allow you to get the most out of your wardrobe (particularly during a busy wedding season), and allow you to have fun creating endless combinations of looks.

What we love most about the ensemble below is the statement sequined midi skirt. This really is what makes it wedding attire. If you have a bold piece like this in your wardrobe, all it needs is a complementing (but more muted) top, and then some glam (but simple) accessories to complete the entire look.

What do you think? Would you ever wear separates at a wedding, or do you use a wedding invitation as an open invitation to shop for a new dress? Let us know on Twitter (@WestWeddings) or in the comments!
