It’s Wednesday guys! Which means only one more day to Friday, hehehe. I received an outfit request via my inbox and it’s taken me a while to come up with this one but I’ve finally finished it.

The request was sent in by Sheila and it reads:

“Hi. I really need your help and input on this. I have been invited to a friend’s civil wedding ceremony in August and I don’t know what to wear! I love dresses but everything I’ve seen is quite expensive. Do you have any ideas for affordable an affordable wedding attire. I love dresses. Preferably under £200? Thank you for assisting me. Sheila”

Wedding guest outfits are all the rage this season as so many people are getting hitched! So it’s pretty difficult to find occasion wear on the cheap side but it’s doable. I put a few combos together and hope these help.

Look 1

You did say you loved dresses and this dress right here is to die for! At only £43 (Was £145),this Untold Jacquard Print Dress is the perfect wedding guest skater. It may be summer but this navy and dark purple palette on this ensemble totally works!Add some sexy strappy sandals at only £40 from Shoespie with a beautiful embellished beaded party clutch from Aldo for only £29. This whole ensemble, including accesories rings in at £190. Not bad eh?

Look 2

If like myself, this summer sunshine goodness has put you in the mood for some hot maxi dresses then you’ll love Look Number 2! This hot pink one shoulder pleated maxi dress from Miss Selfridge will set you back £55. Highlight your pedicure with these gold metallic sandals by Steve Madden, add a satin clutch for taste and you’re good to go. Total outfit price, £155.

Look 3

This £49 coral dress from Coast which is on the House of Fraser sale was just begging to be paired with something bright and fun. I couldn’t resist adding this lemon braided detail slingbacks by Charles & Keith. This ensemble is fun, girly and bright. Plus it all comes up to only £165. Who doesn’t love a bargain?

Look 4

This £50 Lily Kimono Dress by Oasis is the cutest little dress. The print is spot on trend and the nude Steve Madded sandals complement it so well. This is more of a dress down vibe but the £27 Forever New Luxe Satin Clutch and heels make it dress so it would work perfectly for a civil ceremony if worn right. What do you think? Would you wear it? Outfit rings in at £177.

Which outfit is your pick?

How did I do? Hope these are of help Sheila. Have fun at the ceremony!
