It's your last celebration as a single woman - go all out!!

It is common for one night on your bachelorette to wear white while all your bridesmaid wear black! You’ll want to rock an outfit that’s fun and flirty. That makes you feel like a million dollars! Our favorite bachelorette party outfits are the Gillian Lace Romper and the Liz Lace Up Halter Neck Dress!

Bridal Shower Dress


For the bridal shower, you’ll want to go for something more elegant and romantic. If it's a bridal shower, your church is throwing and all of mom's and grandma's friends are going to be there - you may want to choose something a little more conservative! A long, lace dress or a high-low dress with a ruffled skirt will give you a beautiful, feminine look. You can also try a midi dress with a bow or ruffle detail for a more classic look.
