Today I'm wearing a wedding dress and no, I'm not going to a wedding...or a fancy dress party.
Neither is this a joke.
Don't worry.
I've not turned into a 'Miss Havisham' or completely taken leave of my senses.
Nor have I decided to dress in a more avant-garde style, channelling an eccentric vibe.
BUT...
I am wearing a wedding dress for real.
Let me explain myself...
This dress is a wedding dress and is sold as such.
It would be perfect for those low-key, casual and easy-going events that are always great fun to attend.
However, the beauty of a dress like this is that it's not really a wedding dress at all.
It's just an incredibly comfortable, classically cut, ivory dress.
Perfect for, well... wearing!
I wore this dress on holiday and I've got plans to dress it up for a Christmas party, but today I'm wearing it to run errands and get in some shopping.
A normal day.
And why not?!
The fabric has a beautiful drape and it's fully lined in a substantial jersey fabric, so no nasty pant-lines on display... phew!
It doesn't crush up when sitting in a car (or bus) AND it wipes easily when you slitter your soup down it.... not that that happened to me of course*.
{*clears throat}
Just in case you're wondering... I've not been sponsored by this brand I just LOVE their dresses!
For me, white calls out for silver accessories in summer and this outfit was a doddle to throw together.
Silver accessories and a denim jacket.
Done and done!

How would you wear this dress to suit your personal style?
