Take inspiration from Royal wedding guests style this season!

The Royal wedding had us all glued to our screens a couple of weeks ago and we were excited to see so many vibrant colours and beautiful styles arriving on the guests at St George’s Chapel at Windsor Castle for the ceremony.

Colour Inspiration

From Amal Clooney in head-to-toe Daffodil yellow, to Kitty Spencer in Forest Green with pops of Tangerine, the new Duke and Duchess’ guests certainly put on a colourful show.

Here’s my guide to the colours YOU should be wearing for that special occasion this Summer to ensure that you too make the best-dressed wedding guest list.

Let’s start with Amal’s show-stopping Stella McCartney ensemble. A similar shade will work for you if you fall into the Deep/Warm, Clear/Warm or Warm colour categories.

Go for yellow with this Bay Bow Dress by Coast.

The Mother of the Bride, Doria Ragland stood out for her understated elegance in Mint Oscar de La Renta. This delicate shade will work beautifully for you if you fall into the Light/Cool colour categories.

This elegant mint lace dress from Phase Eight sets just the right tone for a Spring/Summer wedding.

Suits actress Abigail Spencer went for a retro look with her Alessandra Rich blue polka-dot dress, complete with cinched-in waist and demure midi-length style.

Polka dots are a key trend for Spring/Summer and this Michael Kors dress is a classic cut which will flatter an hourglass body shape beautifully. The navy colour will work for all colour categories too.

Turn Heads

All of the female guests wore some sort of hat, fascinator or hatinator at the Royal wedding and if you are attending a more formal occasion this season, you may wish to do the same.

Whether you go for a traditional wide-brimmed hat like Oprah or a refined fascinator with elegant netting like Kitty Spencer, make sure your choice is in a fabulous colour from your palette and in a style that balances your face shape. There are plenty of fascinators to choose from, like this navy blue from Marks And Spencers.
