Affordable Wedding Guest Dresses for Summer from Amazon

May 16, 2024

It’s spring time, which means wedding season is about to be in full swing. I usually shop for a new dress to wear when I’m attending a wedding or other special event. I think it might be my excuse to go shopping. What can I say?! At the same time, it’s always nice to find affordable options that are current styles. But most importantly (in my opinion) is to feel comfortable and confident in whatever you choose to wear. I’ve curated a sampling of some beautiful and affordable wedding guest dresses for summer that I think are classy and are on the more modest side without looking frumpy.

I personally prefer to wear midi and maxi styles because I’m not too fond of showing my legs. Therefore, those are the styles that I share most often because they make me feel my most confident and comfortable.

Things to take into consideration when dressing for a summer wedding:

  1. the weather
  2. the setting
  3. the dress code attire listed on the wedding invitation itself (first and foremost)

Options to think about when shopping for wedding guest attire (or shopping in your closet)

  1. It would be appropriate to opt for a light-colored outfit with summery patterns or solid colors.
  2. A linen or cotton blend suit or semi-formal dress would be suitable for a formal ceremony.
  3. You may also opt for a classy summer dress or a blouse and skirt combination for a more casual event.
  4. Remember, accessories can elevate your look, so consider tasteful jewelry, a stylish watch or a summer-friendly hat.
  5. Footwear should be comfortable yet appropriate for the occasion. You might opt for wedges or dressy sandals that are comfortable for 3+ hours.

I’m sharing my Glow-Up Routine for Women Over 50 I’m sharing my Glow-Up Routine for Women Over 50 for a beautiful natural makeup look that enhances the beauty of mature skin and protects it from the sun. It’s makeup and skincare in one! I love a multitasker, don’t you?

What I used:
Universal Tinted Moisturizer: This is a lightweight tinted moisturizer with SPF 46 that gives sheer coverage and a natural glow. It nourishes and hydrates with hyaluronic acid, vitamin E, and a high concentration of niacinamide (vitamin B3). It blends out perfectly for all skin tones.

Luminous Eye Corrector: This product comes in 4 peachy shades to cancel out under eye circles and darkness. It stays all day, doesn’t crease and gives perfect coverage without looking cakey. It has mineral SPF 41 to protect that delicate skin under the eyes.

Lip Silk: Deeply hydrating lip color that’s formulated with Squalane, Meadowfoam, & Peptides to nourish and soften lips without bleeding into lip lines. Available in 2 shades Soft and Bold. It has mineral based SPF 40 to protect lips from the sun and also from blue light.

These are fantastic skincare products that make you feel good in your own skin & they’re linked in my profile!💫

Sunday funny… Yes, this is how I think!🙃 The Sunday funny… Yes, this is how I think!🙃

The Costco parking lot is always so crowded and full, but a rainy day keeps lots of shoppers away so I could score a great parking spot right now.

I recently went to the Southlake, TX location of S I recently went to the Southlake, TX location of Skin Pharm for a little Dysport refresh with the incredible Rebekah.💖

I really appreciate her knowledge and skill, but what impresses me the most is the way she listens to my concerns about my aging skin and she does everything she can to help make me feel more confident.

She educated me on the latest products and treatments available and we decided together that Skinvive is something that I might want to try in the future. Have you heard of it? It purely for hydration and not for volume.

You can see my highlights with my previous treatments at Skin Pharm too.

Skin Pharm is a clinician-founded, female-led cosmetic dermatology practice with locations in several states including TX, GA, NC, SC and TN. 

Oh, and their skincare products are amazing! You can purchase them right from their website too! I highly recommend their cleansers, the eye sculpt cream, the Youth Serum and the new Face Whip.💫

✨Right now they’re running a special where you get FREE cleanser AND Crystal Clear with any treatment  through 5/30/25.✨

Book your appointment at @skinpharm asap so they can take care of you too!
