What to Wear: Fall Wedding

By Ann Binlot Published August 6, 2021

The leaves are turning, pumpkins are showing up on doorsteps and romance is in the air. Before you know it, it’s time for that fall wedding that has been on you calendar for the last few months. What should you wear? Ditch the seersucker suit you work to that summer wedding and go for something a little heavier. We opted for the classic and affordable Express Glen Plaid Photographer three-piece suit. Layer a pink shirt, like the Tommy Hilfiger dress shirt, under it, put on a darker tie, like the Armani one pictured above, and stick on some dance-floor-worthy shoes (we opted for an Oliver Spencer pair). Now you’re all set to celebrate this special occasion!

Express Glen Plaid Photographer Suit Jacket, $223.50 at express.com; Express Glen Plaid Photographer Suit Vest, $73.50 at express.com; Express Glen Plaid Photographer Suit Pant at express.com; Alfred Dunhill Stainless Steel Roller Cufflinks, $285 at neimanmarcus.com; Tommy Hilfiger Dress Shirt, $42.99 at macys.com; Armani Collezioni Basket Neat Silk Tie, $175 at neimanmarcus.com; Oliver Spencer Derby Shoe, $462 at oliverspencer.co.uk.

Wingtip shoes: What are they, and how do you wear them with confidence?

Know more about the shoe detail you love

It’s no secret that many terms and phrases in the shoe world tend to be misused or forgotten. When differentiating between types of shoes, it can be challenging to know what is what. While it might seem easy to swap words or phrases, it’s important to know exactly what we are looking for and wearing. A small difference, such as knowing what constitutes a Chelsea boot or what an Oxford, is can help when learning more about your style or needs.

Even words or phrases not used often in styling can help pinpoint what we need when shopping or styling our footwear. A term like wingtip shoes might seem foreign or unimportant, but it can be the style detail you need for an upcoming event or look. Although wingtip shoes have a very recognizable detail, it doesn’t mean it’s a term often used when describing them. For that reason, we are breaking down the term and learning exactly what a wingtip shoe is and how to add it to your wardrobe for the ultimate style.

DUER changes what you can do in a single pair of pants with 85% plants

The most durable and movable pants are also some of the industry's most sustainable.

DUER hillside

The world is a beautiful place, and we have only recently begun endeavoring to protect it in the way we should. While the fashion industry is near the top of the list of the most wasteful, companies are beginning to be more conscientious of the impact their business has on the world around them. As you can imagine, brands that offer garments and gear to explore the outdoors are near the top of the list of companies that want to protect their most precious commodity, the Earth, and the people who thirst for the adventure to explore it. DUER is a brand at the forefront of technologically advanced ways to improve clothing and stay conscientious of their impact on the world. DUER Sustainability is one of the tops in the industry at 85% plant-based fibers.
Plant pants built for doing

DUER began as a Kickstarter backed by the idea that you can do more. They pushed the boundaries of what could be done in a single pair of pants and have grown to provide all of us with the most comfortable pants you own. They also "built for doing," which means they want you to get outside and explore the world. With that desire for you to explore comes a deep love for the planet and the adventures it offers us when we get out of the office. To protect it, they have focused on sourcing natural fibers that are easier on the environment than the synthetic heavy alternatives favored by most brands because they are cheap and easy. DUER is built for doing, and they are taking it beyond their product and into the world of ecological responsibility.

Revelry dives into menswear to make your wedding day seamless

Popular bridesmaids destination adds suits to the collection

Men in Revelry suits

What started as a sorority dress shop designed for inclusivity towards all sizes of women turned into a massive success. The inclusive approach to styling dresses to look uniform transitioned seamlessly from sororities to weddings as Revelry went from a start-up to an eight-figure behemoth. Founder Michelle Deloach didn't let that success be the end of the journey, as she realized there was a whole other half to the wedding outfitting. Now, Revelry suits are making getting fit for a suit a seamless process for men.

Deloach shared, “Outfitting a cohesive wedding party on both sides has never been more seamless. Our goal has always been to make the bride or couples' job easier while outfitting the people they love to create their dream wedding look.”
