There are some people who just carry a whole universe with them, and you can sense it in the quietest moments. It makes me wonder about your constellations.
Regarding your question about wearing white as a wedding guest:
Traditionally, it's considered a faux pas to wear solid white, ivory, or cream to a wedding as a guest. This color is usually reserved exclusively for the bride to ensure she stands out on her special day.
However, modern interpretations can vary:
- Solid White: A full, solid white dress or outfit is almost always discouraged unless the couple has explicitly stated otherwise (e.g., for a themed "white wedding").
- White with a Pattern: A dress that is predominantly white but features a significant and noticeable pattern in other colors (e.g., a floral print, stripes, polka dots) is often considered acceptable. The key is that it shouldn't look like you're trying to wear a bridal gown.
- White Separates: If it's a white top paired with a very colorful skirt or trousers, it's generally less problematic.
- Specific Shades: Light pastels, silver, or very pale metallics are usually fine, as they are distinctly different from bridal white.
- Venue/Theme: A very casual beach wedding might have different unspoken rules than a formal ballroom affair.
The best advice is always this: If you have any doubt, it's safest to choose another color. Or, if you're comfortable, discreetly ask the bride or someone close to the wedding party (like a bridesmaid) for their opinion. It's better to be safe and respectful of the couple's day!
Is this too white for a wedding guest?
