  There's really nothing more appropriate than a colourful, flirty, knee-length dress for a Summer's day wedding. It shows the host that you are respectful and appreciate of their special day and have gone the extra mile to look great. Most of us wear separates every day, which makes the event of wearing a smarter dress more exclusive. Trendy separates are also suitable, but they are often harder to match up. A dress is one item and you're done.     Nero-Strapless Floral Dress Floral-Print Ruched Dress Wildflower Spagetti Strap Dress  
      Black & White is a choice that is both timeless and "of the moment". Ruffles are romantic, fun and flattering. A strappy silk taffeta dress is versatile and forever fashionable.
Select the best dress for your body type
Have your dress altered if it doesn't fit perfectly
Refrain from wearing anything white (you don't want to compete with the bride)
Go knee-length - save long dresses for ultra-formal evenings
Find your knee length (on, below or above, depending on what's best for your leg silhouette)
If you are going to wear a little black dress, make sure that you accessorize with colours
Select fabrics that are relatively crease-free and forgiving of perspiration (no linen or pure raw silk)

Wear heels, even if it is just an inch, in keeping with the formality of the occasion.
Sandals, like sling-backs, wedges, peep-toes, thongs, mules or strappy ankle styles, are a good choice.
Metallic shades like silver, bronze or gold are a versatile choice and will match any colour.
Don't be afraid to go bright on dress and shoes (e.g. a yellow dress with the right pair of red shoes).
Get a pedicure and pay special attention to those heels and toes.

  Strive for individuality. If it's difficult to do with your dress, make an extra statement with your accessories. The heel of your shoe, shape of your bag and scale of your jewelry speaks volumes about your style and personality. Isabella Fiore Frame Bag Reeves Ruched Clutch Chloe Patent Leather Clutch  
A circular handle, framed style sets a retro mood. A basic bronze clutch is an adaptable option. A patent clutch is a fun and trendy choice.
Choose a clutch or dainty bag to wear with your pretty dress.
Oversized is inappropriate (pack only cash, keys, cell phone, compact powder and lipstick).
Matching your shoes with your handbag is not a necessity.
Heavily beaded, glitzy, sequined clutches are best left for evening weddings.
