My husband (in tails) and I (in a Thakoon cocktail dress) at a wedding awhile back – that’s right summer weddings are upon us and it’s time to figure out what to wear!
Wedding season is upon us and so it’s time to dust off those summer cocktail dresses and figure out if anyone who’s going to be at this event has seen you in it before… Well, it might be time to look for a new one because there are so many stunning dresses available and social media means everyone has already seen you in the ghost of cocktail dresses past. Since I’ve already done a post this week on clutches I figure it’s only fitting to do a focus on some beautiful spring summer cocktail dresses for all your upcoming engagements… I’m going to leave the little black dresses for another post and just focus on some of the gorgeous evening dresses that we don’t get to wear often but bring out our inner glamazon. We may not walk the red carpet in our daily lives so when these events arise we may as well enjoy them! PS – just a reminder – unless you ARE the bride or the bride has specifically asked people to wear white it is the ONE fashion rule never to be broken. No white, no cream, no off white at weddings. Check out some of my favorite summer cocktail dresses to give you a reason to get excited about dressing up (and some mighty cute things for our little ones too)!

I’m absolutely in love with the blush dress with the asymmetrical hem you’ve posted, and the link to it’s information will not work. Could you share it again?
Hi Christine, the link is not working because the dress has sold out! I’ve been searching to see if it’s available elsewhere but clearly you have great taste because it is completely sold out. I will keep an eye out for an alternate version!
Maria, thank you for responding! I would definitely appreciate you keeping an eye out
