Dress (wearing Small) similar HERE / Earrings / Clutch / Shoes / Watch / Bracelet
THIS. DRESS. Can I just stop there? This dress speaks for itself with the vibrant eggshell blue, body-sculpting silhouette, and the ruffled drop-waist skirt. 😍 But you know me, I’ll overtalk anything. So, here we go.
A little bit of backstory, Mike is not a fan of weddings. We went to 5 or 6 weddings the first year that we dated (lol sor!). The very first wedding we went to was my friend Kristi’s, and they wrote their own vows. Mike turned to me and said “I am never writing my own vows”, and I said “then you’re never marrying me.” 🤷 Fast-forward 3 years and the boy has a vow journal next to his bed. Personally, I just never wanted to marry someone that couldn’t verbalize exactly what he was vowing to me. It seems like you’re getting off the hook if you just read from a script, IMO.
So, this year we were invited to three weddings. Two during the same week! One was in Boston and the other in DC. I started looking for the perfect wedding guest dress like the night Chris and Elizabeth got engaged, lol. And I was on a waiting list for this dress for weeks!!

PTL for restock notifications because I ended up buying the small and medium. I am wearing the small here, but I was more comfortable in the medium. For the next time I wear it, I’ll probably take it to a tailor for a half inch in at the waist. You can totally pair this dress with gray/white/black/ accessories to re-wear without it seeming like a Lizzie McGuire outfit repeater moment.
This Lovers + Friends dress comes in a gorgeous red color here (perf for my brunette gals!!) and magenta. I wore the dress with my new trench featured in my last post “Summer’s Best Wear-Everywhere Jacket is Still a Trenchcoat.” L + F has a lot of beautiful styles, so next time you’re looking for a wedding guest dress, I would check them out. I’ll admit that I stalk their IG on the reg.
Thanks for reading! Comment below & tell me how many weddings you are going to this year! I want to show Mike how lucky he is, haha!
xx, Chels
