Black is always in style, especially during the spring and summer months. But if you’re planning on wearing a black dress to a wedding or other summer event, how can you make it shine? It’s simple: just follow these tips on how to accessorize your look!
How to accessorize a black dress for a summer wedding?
Choosing the right shoes is always important, but especially on this occasion. You want to make sure that they’re comfortable, appropriate for the weather and have a good heel height.
You should also take into account your body type and whether or not you like wearing heels. If you’re petite or short-legged, then choosing a pair of wedges or platform sandals would be best for you. If you’re tall with long legs then go for some sky-high pumps!
When it comes to colour, black is still very popular so if it’s what fits your style then go ahead and wear them!
Bring on the bling
If you’re wearing a black dress for a summer wedding, don’t be afraid to add some bling!
A necklace that matches your dress is always a good option. But if you want something unique and eye-catching, try these other ways to accessorize:
Choose an accessory that’s the opposite color of your dress (red if yours is black).
Choose one that’s neutral (white or ivory). Or go for one in another color entirely—like silver, gold or pastel shades like lavender or mint green. Just make sure it doesn’t clash with anything else in your ensemble (or distract from the bride!). A great way to ensure this is by choosing a piece with interesting shapes—like geometric designs or pearls—rather than just plain round beads.
Wear a bold statement necklace
Have you ever worn a statement necklace to a wedding? If so, what did you wear? Was it a neckline that was too low for your neckline? Did it look great on you and make you feel amazing because of how much attention you were getting from everyone in the room?
If so, then I’m sure that’s something we can all relate to! For example, when I wore my black dress with red shoes, I knew exactly which necklace would be perfect for me: It was bold and colorful while making up for its lack of length with its width. Plus, it had just enough shine without being too flashy or gaudy.
When choosing a statement piece like this one (or any other type of accessory), there are several things to consider:
-If it’s an accessory that will be worn with other pieces, does it complement them? -Is this something that only you can pull off? (For example, if you’re wearing a lace dress but your hair is short and straight, then don’t wear a big feather headband.) -Does it match your personality and style?
Add a pop of color with your handbag
Your handbag is an easy way to add some color to your all black ensemble. If you are wearing a bright colored dress or top, use a neutral colored bag such as tan or brown. If on the other hand, you are wearing an all black outfit then go with a bright colored purse like red, orange or yellow. Avoid using neon colored bags as they will look too loud for the occasion and can distract from your overall look
Go for the boho chic look with a flower crown
If you’re not into the floral headpiece idea, a flower crown is another great option. This can be made from fresh flowers or silk flowers. To wear one of these as an accessory, first make sure that your hair is free of any styling products such as hairspray or gel. Then find a headband that fits your head comfortably and secure it around your head with bobby pins to hold in place. You may also want to use a hair clip or bobby pin to keep the crown in place if you have bangs or long layers of hair that tend to get in the way of your look (or just fall down).
Try wearing a midi dress instead
If you’re not sure what to wear to a summer wedding, try a midi dress. These are more flattering and versatile than other styles of dress, and they can be worn easily with different accessories depending on the event.
A-line dresses are also an excellent choice for summer weddings because they flow out at the bottom to give the appearance of being fuller than they actually are—and that makes them look flattering on most body types!
Black is classic and versatile
Black is a classic color that can be worn year-round, but it’s especially versatile in the summertime. With these tips on how to accessorize black dresses for a summer wedding, you’ll have no problem finding ways to make your outfit feel cool and breezy.
- Use silver accessories as pops of contrast against the black dress. Silver accessories won’t make you sweat like gold or bronze jewelry will in this heat! Try pairing earrings with a necklace or bracelet set that includes some silver pieces for an elegant look that’s sure to impress everyone at your next summer party.
- Accessorize with neutral colors like white and ivory instead of bright colors like yellow or reds (unless if it’s for a beach wedding). The best way to wear all black outfits is by adding pops of color from other parts of your outfit – whether it’s jewelry or shoes!
Conclusion
Black is a great color to wear in the summer because it’s versatile and classic. You can make it work with any type of outfit and any occasion, but if you need some help finding your perfect look then we hope these tips will inspire you!
