Wedding Wednesdays: Destination

If you find yourself at a destination wedding this summer what's your most important style tip? Stay cool!! Beach weddings are hot, but beach weddings in a tropical destination in summer time? Well, that's even hotter!

Our go to look? A light cotton or linen sundress that just has the right amount of bright, island flavor. We think this Shoshanna Ikat Print Dress in too-hot-to-trot pink fit's the bill just perfectly. Accesorize with flat sandals so your comfortable to dance around in the sand, but not flip flips (thats too casual even for a beach wedding) and chic raffia clutch. Dress the look up with some clear, lucite jewelry and maybe a fun whimsical "beach-themed" piece, like this Swarovski fish ring, for just a touch of vacation fun!

When In Rome... Do The Gladiator!

Dolce Vita Neve Zip Front Sandals with Studs

As I begin to check out all the Spring Accessories collections there is one trend that I am glad to see is still MAJORLY in style - gladiator sandals! I love gladiator sandals because they are super easy to wear and dress up summer sun dresses just as nice as many of their heeled counterparts do. I also think my inner hippie cannot resist the boho glam look of the gladiator sandal.

This year studded gladiators in black and our favorite hues of the season, blush and flesh-tones, are really hot. One of my absolute fav. affordable shoe lines Dolce Vita has a black studded gladiator that I am just so in love with that I know I am going to have to purchase. They are available on ShopBop (just click the link under the image above) but if you rather not purchase online Dolce Vita carries many of their styles at Macys. Some of my other fav studded gladiators for the season include:

Bernado Mimi

Tory Burch Stud Flat

Joie Turn Me Loose Studded Gladiators

Jeffrey Campbell Nene Gladiator Sandal

To check out any of these studded gladiators just click on the links below the pics. And tell us - which is your fav? Should we invest in a black pair or a flesh-tone pair?

Fashionably Yours,
