ASK SARAH: WHAT TO WEAR TO A WEDDING IN BALI?
Tuesday 04.23.13 today's ask sarah question came from my friend lucy, an australian living in germany who is just about as entertaining and fun as they come. i adore her! so, here we go....
QUESTION: I am going to a wedding in Bali in October, I need a dress - and I have no idea what's good. The reason I am stumped is that it will be tropical, like humid/ hot - and you just can't do silky numbers in those conditions. I know you love shopping, and vicariously is good for your wallet. Got any good recommendations? Holla. Your mate, Lucy
ANSWER: oh darling lucy, i do love shopping for other people. you know me well! here's what I rounded up for you. three looks, all perfectly suited to the tropics ( i do not worry about silky dresses so long as they're sleeveless!) when i think about bali i think of bright colors, palm trees and warm breezes. and weddings are the perfect excuse to look your most fabulous. without further ado...
this is my first option for you. the shoes are an investment (but also really versatile so can be worn for years to come) and the rest is all very wallet friendly. i'd wear this with hair down in loose waves and a bright coral lip (like this). the blue would make your eyes pop, the dress would flatter your curves, the shoes would give you some height/length and you'd look perfectly, effortlessly, tropical-lucy fabulous.
