Mother of the Bride Style

Mother of the Bride Outfits

What an exciting occasion, your little girl is all grown up and having a wedding of her own. She is going to look drop dead gorgeous and so will you!

Today, we wanted to give you some tips and advice about picking the perfect outfit as the Mother of the Bride.

Shape Up or Ship Out

There is always a lot of talk over what kinds of clothes suit your shape and for good reason. As we all know, certain clothes do not work on us and others are always winners. Check out this handy guide below from ilovejeans.com to find what shape you are. Once you have selected the one most like you, then look more in depth into that body shape. Check what usually suits these body types and even go browsing the shops for the day to find which styles you really love (or hate).

Time is of the Essence

If you have only just figured out what body shape you are then, now is the time to experiment with styles. You don’t want to be stressing out close to the big day, because you don’t have an outfit. Start experimenting and you could even find the perfect outfit on the first day!

Offline Shopping

If you saw our past blog with wedding advice from Peter Kelly of Weddings by Franc, you will know that it is not always the most convenient way of getting a bargain. You really need to try everything on and consider the fact that even if you grabbed a great bargain online, with the money you could spend between returns and alterations, you may have actually paid more!

Hopefully these hints have helped you out. Do you have any other tips for the marvelous Mothers, let us know in the comments below. Happy shopping!
