16 Bloomingdale’s Dresses, Shoes, and Bags to Wear to a Summer Wedding

The pressure to be a well-dressed wedding guest is very real. There’s something about a summer wedding in particular that inspires a more playful ensemble. Whether the event has a beachy vibe, a western theme, or is in a European destination, I’m always looking to be bold with my color and print choices. With a calendar full of weddings and bridal parties this season, it’s time to get shopping, and thankfully, Bloomingdale’s makes it easy to find pieces that fit the vibe. Below, I’ve curated a mix of fun dresses, handbags, clutches, and heels that fit a range of dress codes. Shop my favorites from brands like Staud, ALC, Farm Rio, and more.

Dresses for Every Dress Code

While scrolling through the Bloomingdale’s site, one thing became clear: it’s the summer of florals and stripes. Don’t be afraid to play with print and color; these silhouettes make them look elegant, even for stricter dress codes.

Clutches + Handbags

The four handbags and clutches below feel so summery, I don’t know how I would choose just one. For a seaside wedding, Staud’s Beaded Reef Bag ($375) is a must. For a black-tie affair, I’d reach for the Cult Gaia Eviana Clutch ($296).

Favorite Heels

When buying a new pair of shoes for a wedding, I opt for those I can wear for non-wedding-related activities too. These four are an immediate yes. The cost-per-wear justifies the purchase.
