FASHION – What to Wear to a Bachelorette Party as a Guest

It’s June! Before we know it wedding season will be upon us. The bachelorette party is a big deal, it’s fun, flirty and girly but what is the appropriate dress…what to wear is a question I always find myself asking.

There are a few factors to consider when putting together outfits for a bachelorette.

1.      What the bride says goes

If the bride or the bridesmaids provide information as to what colours to wear or what colours not to wear DO follow suit. It’s courteous and makes things easier for you in that you can narrow down your outfit idea to a certain colour or omit outfit ideas that do not align with the requested colour. Personally, I don’t like to dictate colours but some people have a preference and that’s fine too. It’s also an opportunity to shop for something new, should you not have anything that fits the request 😊. The general rule, just like for a wedding, is not to wear white unless the bride requests this.

2.    Themes

If there is a theme, again follow suit. It can be exciting to dress according to a theme and really adds so much fun to the event. It also allows you to step out of your fashion comfort zone.

3.   Destination/weekend away

If the girls are making a weekend of the bachelorette or it’s a destination party, it’s a call for multiple outfits – yaaay! Do consider the actual destination you wouldn’t dress the same for the bush and the beach! Remember to check the weather for your destination before packing. Pack according to the weekend’s itinerary, for example will there be lots of walking (a last bar crawl perhaps?) a call for comfortable shoes, dancing – cute outfits, think sparkles and anything flirty. For relaxed activities like spa treatments, mani’s & pedis’s etc. you generally wont need more than a gown and slippers. If there is a pool or beach, pack a cozzie and a sunhat. Know the itinerary and pack accordingly. Buy items that you will wear again – cute and cost efficient!

4.    Comfortable but cute

Whether going away for the weekend or out on the town for a night of dancing, no one wants to be uncomfortable in what they’re wearing. If heels are not your thing, don’t put yourself through that pain. You want to be able to have fun with your girls and not worry about taking a tumble (unless it’s due to too much tequila) or your dress being so short that you can’t even sit down.

In short:

*Do listen to the bridal party/bride’s prompts on colour scheme.

*Themes can be a lot of fun.

*Consider the destinations’ weather and the itinerary when packing.

*Dress comfortably – comfort doesn’t have to equate to boring!

BEAUTY: Bowing to the new brow?

Image
I’m a girl who grew up in the 90’s – big hair inspired by the 80’s were still a thing, red lips (I’m thinking Cindy Crawford with her signature mole) and smoking cigarettes then too was “cool” (there seems to be a push for this to be cool again – Make. It. Stop.) Another 90’s signifier are “plucked” eyebrows, remember Pamela Anderson from Bay Watch , now think of her brows (not her other distinguishing body part!) or Britney Spears in her debuting music video.   I’ve received many compliments on my naturally shaped brows, which are full and so never took to the plucking trend. I hailed the Kardashian era which made having fuller brows, well shaped and gelled into place trend. I felt right at home! Lately, I’ve been noticing a shift back to the skinny brow. Kendall Jenner and Olivia Rodrigo are amongst celebs sporting thinner brows. So, are thin brows making a come-back? Let’s take a look. According to Teen Vogue, my observations are correct – thin brows are making a comeback ...

DEVOTIONAL: Acts 2:38

 " Peter replied, 'Each of you must repent of your sins and turn to God and be baptised in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. Then you will receive the gift of the holy spirit. '" Sometimes life can be difficult, the everyday decision making - we start to question if we've made the right decision, ponder on its consequences (good or bad) that it can lead us to wish there was a handbook on how to do life. The good news - there is! The Bible. The bad news is that the author is demanding and has high standards which can feel unattainable. The great news would be that the author (God, if you didn't know by now😼) is gracious, He understands that we are fallible and is quick to forgive us (sings Justin Bieber Everything Hallelujah).  We have the Bible which serves as a manual to life. In this scripture, Christians are told to repent of sin, turn to Christ for forgiveness and by so doing accept and fully experience the gift of the Holy Spirit...

DEVOTIONAL: Zephaniah 3:17

DEVOTIONAL: Zephaniah 3:17 "The Lord your God  is with you. He is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you. He will quiet you with His love. He will rejoice over you with singing." Oh Lord Jesus, our saviour and friend, thank you for always being with us, your children, for never leaving our side, for your omnipresence.  How beautiful is it that You will rejoice over us with gladness, that You, oh Lord make a fuss over us - sinners? Your word says that you will bring your children quietness with your love. Thank you for that experience, for providing peace that the world cannot. You oh Lord quiet the storm.  Your children have no reason to fear, to worry because as Your word says, You have already overcome the world. All we need do is just believe.  So today, lets leave all our storms with the Lord. Let Him work it out. Allow His promises to quiet our hearts. Trust and believe.  Amen.
