I’m doing a bit of an inverted “Ask Magpie” today — sharing my top picks for dresses for events that many of us are attending or will be attending. Above, what I wore to a summer ice cream social for my daughter’s new school. I got so many compliments on it!
COCO SHOP PINK SLIP // BLUE FLORAL // CREAM DRESS // HILL HOUSE PRINTED NAP DRESS // BLUE STRIPE
The dresses I’d wear —
+ To an anniversary dinner or special date night — just purchased this beauty for our 15th anniversary as a treat to myself!
+ To a daytime birthday gathering.
+ To a family event — reunion, lunch, etc.
+ To an outdoor cocktail party — tiki vibes.
+ To a very special event — bridesmaid dress, special reception, or a vow renewal.
+ To a back to school event/night.
+ To a class parent gathering — La Double J vibes! Finish with a flat sandal like this and a slicked back bun.
+ To a welcome party for new parents, new neighbors, etc — seen above.
+ To my rehearsal dinner (or as a getaway dress!)
+ To a pool hang where you watch your kids in the pool and hang with the moms in the shade.
+ To a low-key happy hour with friends or neighbors.
+ To a special work meeting or presentation.
+ To a concert — this or this.
+ To absolutely anything — look for less restocked recently here!
