The winter months are not considered high wedding season, but people get married at all times of the year. Figuring out what to wear to an out-of-season wedding can sometimes be confusing for guests, because your favorite go-to outfit for a summer wedding will probably not be a viable option for a winter wedding. Learn what to wear to a January wedding that will be seasonal, festive, and stylish.
People tend to find wearing for a holiday wedding to be less confusing than dressing for one in January or February, because most of us are used to dressing up for holiday parties, and the stores are full of great party outfits. The first tip that I could give any woman searching for a fabulous outfit to wear to a January wedding is to shop before Christmas when the stores are well-stocked with special occasion wear. If you wait until January to shop, you may find little more heavy sweaters and the early cruise or resort collections. There is little difference between dressing for a holiday wedding and one in January or February.
The fun part about dressing for a January wedding is that you can still wear the sparkle, fur, silks, velvets, and other luxurious fabrics which are popular around the holidays. Just do not dress in head to toe black, even if that is what you would wear for a Christmas or New Year's party. A festive dress is always stylish. Look for one in a gorgeous fabric, such as black lace over a nude lining, silk taffeta, or satin. Avoid the temptation to pull that summery organza or chiffon dress from your closet, because it will look out of season. Special details will help to make your dress even more festive. A satin bow at the waist, a sequined border around the neck, or a fur collar will set you apart from the crowd.
There tend to be a lot of festive separates in the stores during the winter months, and you can definitely build a gorgeous outfit to wear to a January wedding out of these pieces. Sparkle is big this year, and a blush colored sequin top would be a fabulous piece around which to create a chic ensemble. Pair it with velvet trousers, a silk satin pencil skirt, or a silk shantung evening suit to complete the look. A sequined top would be just the right amount of sparkle to wear to a January wedding; An all-over sequin dress would be fabulous for New Year's Eve, but too much for a wedding, because no guest should ever appear to be in competition with the bride. Other great separates around which you could base an outfit include a fitted velvet jacket, a tartan taffeta skirt, or a ruffled silk blouse.
The wedding accessories you choose will be very important in pulling together your outfit to wear to a January wedding. Your everyday silver earrings or pearl studs will not cut it for such a festive occasion. Go for sparkle in your wedding jewelry – crystal earrings, lots of Swarovski bracelets, and a pendant to match the crystal earrings. Hair accessories are huge this year, so consider treating yourself to a headband adorned with a spray of feathers and crystals or a silk bow. As for shoes, choose either silk or jeweled footwear. If high heels are not your thing, you are in luck, because there are a huge number of sequined, glittered, and jeweled flats in the stores this year. Pick out a cute little evening bag to complement your shoes (it need not be an exact match), and of course be sure to wear a warm wrap. A velvet jacket, fur shrug, or pashmina will help to keep you cozy and comfortable, especially since so many dressy styles are sleeveless, even in the winter. With all the details in place, you will be sure to look spectacular when you attend the wedding in January!
