Decoding Dress Codes

So you've received that amazing invitation and found that thoughtful gift, but aren't so sure on the appropriate party attire.
 
It's clearly stated on the invite but you can't seem to decipher what it's all about.
 
So here are a few helpful hints to ensure you're dressed to impress!!
 
When the occasion is:
 
🎩Black Tie
Pull out your fancy pants... Wear anything that will make the other guests ohhh and ahhh. Grab your floor length ball gown or cocktail dress, skimp on the jewellery or take the diamonds out for a show, or even add a bow. You have this all tied up!!
🍸Cocktail
Choose a short length dress or your go to LBD. Create an outfit which is fun and festive, and stand out from the crowd with statement accessories and bright colours. Pop you're ready!!
 
🌸Garden Party
Is all about the florals. Big, bold prints, 50s inspired, floaty bohemian chic. Add some white for a sleek, clean silhouette or opt for an A-line, knee length dress or skirt to pair with wedges or flats. Pheww no sinking shoe shenanigans!!
 
👓Smart Casual
You are dressed for the office but need to add some more fun. Create a pulled together look with matching separates and playful prints. Select a tailored jacket to go with your jeans or use a open blouse as your overcoat.
 
Now all you need to worry about is finding your perfect date!!
