Wedding Anxiety

Dear wonderful gals at Sensibly Styled,

I am having a wedding wear problem. Please help if you can.

My sister is getting married in October (Oct.2) in Oakland, CA and it is a “casual dress” wedding. As in, her hubby will be wearing Chuck Taylor’s for the ceremony. She has expressly forbid me- or anyone else for that matter- from wearing a dress at all. This is problematic for me as dresses are what I think I look best in. I purchased a pair of Gap linen pants in deep navy and am desperately searching for something affordable and stylish without being “dressy”. I am 5’5″ and a solid size 12, so I also need something that works for curvy girls like me. Do you think you could help me out?
Thank you so much!!!

Ashley:

I picked out a simple, yet classy top from Ann Taylor for you. They definitely have it in your size.  It has some detail at the top to make it more than just a plain blouse but not so much that your sis would suspect you of being dressy.

You won’t believe I’m saying this readers but I would tone down the jewelry so you don’t look like you’re overdoing it.

A few stackable bracelets like the ones below and that lovely statement necklace would be small enough to complete the outfit perfectly.

A sandal would be preferable to make you more casual but since it will be colder I assumed you’d prefer closed toe.  I thought this bootie was lovely.

Hope this helps your wedding anxiety.

Ciao Ciao and Happy Shopping!

Dang oh Dang. Battle of the dresses:

picture-95picture-218Can you tell a difference? I sure can’t! Which makes me angry because I bought the one onthe right from Forever 21 for $34.50 (plus shipping) And I just found the one on the left for $17.99! Too bad it’s too late to return the one I have! When I bought it, they didn’t have it showing on a model… so it looked long enough. (and it’s not) If I would have seen these pictures, I would have known better!

(I actually just looked in my closet and the tags are still on! Do you think Forever 21 will cut me any slack? I don’t have a receipt… but not only is it too short, the sleeves are what I like to call, fake sleeves! Non existent!)

On Right: Forever 21 for $34.50, 34 inches long.
