IGB Weekly: European Summer

Moodboard of the week: Dreamy European summer

It gives long summer nights, warm breezes, delicious food, ancient venues, and pops of jewel tones. 

• This high-neck floral maxi for a bride looking for a non-white look.

• This Magda Butrym draped dress is on the pricier end but would be the perfect something blue.

• I am forever obsessed with this mesh maxi. It would be the perfect dress for a rehearsal dinner or welcome party!

• You can't have European summer without a nice cotton dress. This would be great for a daytime event.

• Another dress for a bride that wants to add some color to her wedding wardrobe. OR could be great for a MOB or MIL dress! 

• The softness of this fabric gives summer. I looove this dress but there are a few others in this material too.

• I love chunkier jewelry with a touch of vintage feel for this aesthetic. These earrings from Anthro are super affordable.

• I like the idea of adding a cool girl touch with a more modern feeling veil. This one from Daphne Newman has my heart.

• This white lace dress feels delicate but still structured and feels perfect for a day party!

• This bell dress is sooo fun and I am obsessed with the shape of it.

Designer Highlight: Francesca Miranda

I was introduced to Colombian designer Francesca Miranda at a trunk show last year and have quickly become her #1 fan. She does a great job of pairing classic fits with modern, cool touches.

• The grip this slinky dress has on me omg. It also comes in white!

• This silk red and pink maxi is sooo pretty.

• This white dress is stunning and would be another great bridal look for a more formal rehearsal dinner or welcome party.
