Casual backyard wedding in Maine in October

[Anonymous]

I'd wear black wide leg slacks, black cashmere sweater, and a colorful topper. Wedge shoe or boots.

Your outfit is fine, but doesn't seem appropriate for the weather. If you're okay with being cold I think your outfit works.

If she lives in Maine, maybe she is used to the cold. I had a roommate from Alaska once, and she would wear shorts and a tshirt when it was 50 degrees out and be totally fine.

I would put your energy into wearing a nice tailored wool coat….that is all anyone will see. And sleek boots.

It is going to be 20 degrees OP

No, if she does this, it will definitely be in the 50s and sunny. Border seasons are unpredictable. Wear layers, OP. Thin long sleeved, sweater, nice coat. Shoes that will survive mud or slush.

The weather can vary wildly. Be prepared with layers. Gloves, hat, warm socks, undergarments. I was in Miami once in Thanksgiving it was 27 degrees. I was not prepared for that.

Gotta love people who have not read the thread to see that OP lives in Maine.

Thank you so much! Looks just like this

This looks dated and not appropriate for late October Maine wedding

It’s in a backyard. With a fire pit. Pretty much anything other than jeans would be suitable and dressed up enough. I’d wear wool pants or a midi skirt, a fitted cashmere turtleneck, some heeled boots (not spike heel), and a nice trench if not too cold, otherwise a nice wool coat

What about a sweater dress?

This. Who does a backyard wedding end of October in Maine. I am in Boston and at night I am fully in a down jacket at that point.

Thought jean jacket would look better than heavy winter jacket. I know how cold it gets, I live in Maine. Just wanted to look nice, not worried about cold at all. Thanks

This wedding sounds fun. Have a great time!

No. Don’t wear denim. It’s not fashionable or warm.
I’m not sure who has a backyard wedding in Maine in October but it’s not someone focused on comfort so maybe you should wear a black puffy long coat - you’ll need it.

I’d wear a cashmere sweater dress tights boots and a wool coat!

Best suggestion probably.

I mean, I don’t think Maine is the bleeding edge of fashion (no offense, Maine!), so OP will be fine in this.
