Somewear: Summer Wedding in the Southern Heat!

 

Like many of us this summer, my girlfriend, Stephanie, will be attending an outdoor summer wedding.  It’s always a tricky sitch, because you want to look nice and classy, while at the same time wearing as little as possible.  I mean, no one appreciates a girl with pit stains and dripping wet hair.  So, how do you avoid this in the 110 degree temperatures of the southern sun?  Well, you just can’t, BUT you can try your hardest to prevent it by wearing a loose fitting dress with easy breeze access, tossing your hair up into an effortless up-do while at the same time showing off some killer earrings, and most importantly- by packing a portable electric mini fan in your clutch!  Oh, aren't weddings blissful!

Somewear: Wine Country Wedding

The colors, the shape, the movement that this dress beholds is just breathtaking and it's screaming take me to a breezy vineyard in the Northern hills of California.  The dress says so much that only glamorous subtlety is needed to complete this outfit: neutrals and golds.
