Garden parties are simply the best! These events are renowned for their delightful atmosphere and the exquisite dress code they inspire- Garden Party Attire that is. 

There's a magic that sparkles all around at garden parties! Maybe it's the smiles all around or the glimmering reflections of crystal glasses in the sun. 

I love everything about garden parties! From the flow of a floral dress to the cut of a crisp suit. I find myself completely enamored with the entire array of garden party outfits.

No that we have gotten through that, lets talk about garden party attire.

Garden parties truly are a wonderful way to spend a day, and I'm thrilled to be able to create this magical experience for my little one.

Last year, I threw my daughter's second birthday party, as a garden party in our backyard. And let me tell you, this simple garden party was an absolute blast! There's just something so nice about spending the day outdoors, soaking up the sun and enjoying the fresh air. 

You know, I just love wearing a pretty, floral dress, so any excuse to get myself all dolled up and spend time in the sunshine is right up my alley. Even if I don't have a particular event or gathering to attend, I'll sometimes throw on a pretty dress just because it makes me feel good. It's a little act of self-care that puts a spring in my step.

These garden parties for my daughter's birthdays were the perfect opportunity to indulge my love of dressing up and being outside. Seeing her and her little friends running around, giggling and playing in the grass trying to pop bubbles, all dressed in their cute, colorful outfits – it was just the sweetest thing. And of course, I had to join in on the fun, twirling around in my own floral frock.

I'm definitely planning on hosting another garden party for my daughter's upcoming third birthday. It's such a fun and festive way to celebrate, and I can't wait to create more of those special memories with my little one. There's just something so carefree and joyful about a garden party. And a really fun way to spend the day!

WHAT TO WEAR AT GARDEN PARTY? 

A flowy maxi dress or a sundress are perfect choice to wear to a garden party! Garden parties are the perfect chance to dress up a bit and show off your favorite floral dresses and breezy outfits. There's nothing quite like soaking up the sun in a gorgeous garden while rocking a cute outfit. 

Now, let's talk weather. As much as we'd love every garden party to have perfect, sunny skies, sometimes Mother Nature has other plans. That's why it's always a good idea to check your weather app beforehand and come prepared with some layers. Trust me, layers are your BFF when it comes to outdoor events!

So, what should you bring? A super adorable cardigan, kimono or a chic tweed blazer that complements your stunning garden dress is a must-have. Not only will it keep you cozy if the weather takes a chilly turn, but it'll also take your outfit to the next level.

When it comes to shoes, you'll want to put a little thought into your choice. Since you'll be spending time outdoors, opt for grass-friendly footwear that won't sink into the ground or leave you feeling unstable. Sandals and wedges are perfect for garden parties – they're cute, comfy, and won't let you down on the lawn.

Whether you're twirling in a flowy maxi dress or rocking a playful sundress, a garden party is the ideal setting to showcase your fabulous taste. Get ready to soak up the sun, mingle with friends, and look absolutely amazing while doing it!

WHAT TO WEAR TO A GARDEN PARTY IN THE RAIN?

If rain is on the forecast and you are going to a garden party, first things first, layers are your best friend. A cute jacket or a cozy cardigan will not only keep you warm but also add a stylish touch to your outfit. And let's not forget about accessories – an oversized hat is the perfect way to stay dry and look garden ready at the same time. Or bring a clear umbrella.Trust me, with a little creativity and the right pieces, you'll be rocking that garden glam even on a drizzly day.

When it comes to footwear, closed-toe shoes are the way to go. Look for something easy to clean and wipe off, like a pair of sleek ankle boots or cute flats. No one wants to deal with muddy shoes or sinking heels in the grass. 

Now, for the star of the show – your dress! Even with the rain, you can still rock the garden party vibe with a beautiful pastel or floral number. Maybe a charming midi dress with a delicate print or a flowy maxi that is giving "botanical goddess." You'll look and feel lovely, even if the weather isn't cooperating.

(but of course, we never want to out-do the bride!!) 

Now, let's talk accessories. To complement your gorgeous dress, opt for some minimalist jewelry that adds just the right amount of sparkle. A delicate golden necklace or a pair of cute earrings will do the trick. Remember, less is more when it comes to garden party glam.

But wait, before you slip on those sky-high heels, let's talk practical footwear. When it comes to outdoor garden parties, you'll want to avoid any stilettos that might sink into the grass and leave you feeling unstable.
