Skirt? Vintage, thrifted Tank? Roots Necklace? Clyde's Rebirth Shoes? Napoleoni, Winners (kinda similar here) Bag? Joe Fresh Belt? Roots, thrifted Lipcolour? Maybelline, Super Stay 10, Berry Heavenly

I was a bridesmaid in a wedding this weekend. The wedding went annoying well. I say annoyingly because something is always supposed to go wrong at every wedding. It pours rain. The ring-bearer loses the rings. The limo forgets the bride (haha... yes, I am talking about you, K). An uncle grabs the mike and tells awkward stories. But my friends' wedding went smoothly and wonderfully well. And the bride was a beauty. Trust me. I might have to share pictures later...
I feel like this outfit is partially composed of wedding leftovers. My hair is the slept-on remains of my wedding hairstyle; you know, getting my money's worth. My shoes are the shoes I bought for the wedding on  the day before the wedding. I had two pairs of shoes picked out and I let my dad make the final selection. He chose the more expensive pair... of course. My nails were also professionally done for the wedding. The landscape dirt was cleaned out and my nails were painted an obnoxious shade of orange (they are more eyeball assaulting in real life). That's probably why the wedding went so well... A bride that is chill enough to let me paint my nails the colour of safety vests, in the midst of her navy and mustard wedding, deserves a great day...

AAAAA!!! I'm getting married in early September! I wonder what will go wrong at my wedding . . . I am trying to be as chill as possible in the planning process so I don't FREAK OUT when the day comes. I love your pretty rainbow striped skirt and the wedges. Love that you are getting your money's worth with the hair and nails too!

I attended a wedding last weekend too and something did go wrong - the brides hair stylist was 45 minutes late! She wasn't at all bothered and had a wonderful day anyway.

I love this look and your skin looks radiant!

That skirt is hands down my favourite part of this look. I am glad the wedding went so well!

And I am totally guilty of the sleep-on-it bridesmaid hairstyle. Money's worth indeed! :)

Love the outfit and I love the nails. I have that colour on my toe nails, but haven't dared go to church with that colour on my fingers yet...probably because it would clash with what I usually wear. Have a great day, Yen!

Love this simple yet so fun & summery look. Great wedding colors, too! I'll have to keep the navy/mustard palette in mind.
