While summer wedding season may be over, October and November seem to be extremely popular months to tie the knot. That leads to an interesting dilemma of trying to reposition one of your summer formal looks or finding the perfect fall piece to add to your wardrobe. I think a great approach is to find something you can also rock over the Christmas season, depending on the types of events you usually have to attend. I love the idea of a long dress since it allows you to avoid wearing the dreaded tights and the fabulous jewel colours that around this fall are absolutely amazing. If you like the idea of a little more coverage for fall, there are fabulous options with sleeves of every length, or you can go for a more classic cocktail dress with some kind of unique detailing like the beaded, lace and metallic ones highlighted here.

How did you read my mind?! I was going to tweet for help about this exactly topic! It seems all my fall dresses are a bit too scandalous or boring for a wedding, so what do I wear this weekend to our friends’ affair? You’ve definitely helped
