What to wear to… a spring wedding

So, just like the colour palette on the wedding day, you too can incorporate a colourful fresh spring edit to your outfit. While we still think we should uphold the unwritten social convention that all-white should only be reserved for the bride (unless she says otherwise), there are a myriad of other colours and outfit choices you can wear to a spring celebration.  Wedding guest outfit inspo...

Wow! What a year it’s been. In case you missed it: from Prince Harry and Duchess Megan welcoming a little royal prince into the world through to Khloe Kardashian and rapper Tristan Thompson’s (very public) breakup, there’s certainly been some major highs and lows this year.
