It’s that time of year I call wedding season. Lots of people like to get married in June or July so there’s lots of invites floating around. Hopefully, if you’re part of the wedding party, you aren’t asked to wear a “sea foam green” gown from hell like a friend was. I know its the bride’s day and all, but in this case it required an intravention!

But whatever you’re wearing, you’ll have to find some shoes that match. That’s where House of Brides  comes in! They have a good selection in all sorts of colors for brides and bridesmaids, along with dresses and everything else for that special day. This site has helped more than a friend or two with hard to match colors.

 Want to look like you’re ready for a red carpet premier and on your way to Hollywood? Dress like a celebrity, even if you don’t have an opening or awards show. You only live once!

This Nicole Miller maxi dress is stunning in fuschia and has a knot detail halter with button closure around neck and draped fabric down front to create a luxurious look.

 
And this amazing maxi makes my top picks - the flamingo paisley chiffon halter dress from Badgley Mischka.

To get the look just right, its all about the shoes.

Take a look at this pair for Report Signature that goes by Pamona, with side cutouts and adjustable ankle straps;

The Report Pamona is an affordable pair and great addition to every womans closet. These would probably look great with jeans another day too.

Have you ever seen a pair of high heels that make you melt? You’re about to! This pair of Cesare Paciotti black suede cut-out sandals is the kind of dream shoe that makes want to sing. But now I just need to find a way to get them in my closet.

But this pair of sandals from Fendi might just be the show stopper you’re looking for. It boasts a 4” heel, rhinestone detail, and is every bit stylish and class.

 The maxi dress is all the rage and here at mizztissa we can’t get enough of them. I’m not looking forward to getting my next credit card bill, but loving my new wardrobe! Some favorites from recent shopping adventures…

The Flamingo maxi dress from Hype provides a flattering and sexy look. With spaghetti straps and a deep plunge, its bold blue and gold accents and beautiful print are stylish and in!

The print on this Custo Barcelona is gorgeous! I fell in love with it the moment I saw it.  They’re almost sold out so act fast! I have no idea how to describe the print but its definitely unique.

Another Custo Barcelona print that is as elegant as it is sexy. A Peacock-inspired pattern on the bust and daisy-inspired pattern on the skirt make this a smart stylish buy.

Summer is almost in full swing and you’re still looking for that perfect pair of summer sandals and a dress? It’s a good thing we ran into each other, coz I have a few ideas that can help with your summer wardrobe.

I know how it is. I’ve been on the same quest for that perfect pair of shoes for a while, and although I have yet to find the perfect pair of heels, every so often I find something like the Christian Louboutin ‘Noeudette’ . These will definitely spice up that little summer dress and add some sizzle. They have a 3½” heel with goldtone metal tip and come complete with the signature red sole.

Could this be the perfect summer sandal? Christian Louboutin ‘Noeudette’ in Hot Pink. For me, it says ‘Let’s Salsa’!

Also available in lime green!

When I’m shopping, I guess I do things backwards compared to a lot of women. I pick the shoes, then the dress. I’ve found this just works for me better. Probably because when I picked the dress or clothes first, I usually had a little trouble finding a pair of heels to go with it. But since I started with the shoes first, no problemo!

Now for the summer dress, and I have just the thing, a few times over. Check this Norman Kamali babydoll green bubble dress! The bustier style bodice with v-neck and crisscross backstraps is just the thing when you’re sitting on the patio people watching!

 How about this beautiful off the shoulder silk ruffle dress? I love the flowing look of this one.

Or there’s a dark pink floral jersey dress I adore from David Meister. Perfect for going out almost anywhere.

There’s one other dress that I really liked. It looks so summery (if that’s even a word) and colorful. The small pic doesn’t show it off so well, but borrowing from the description… “Watercolor-hued orchids bloom on the subtly striped halter dress”. If I could only pick one, this might be it. So far, its my summer dress pick!
