[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]OP - I live in Southern CA and I have never heard the term "California Formal". The dress you posted is pretty, but looks too much like a casual sundress - to me, so yes you're going to need to carefully accessorize so as to elevate the look. [/b] What time of year is the wedding? here are some ideas that will elevate the dress. Handbag: I have this one in black and wore it to a cocktail party - got a ton of compliments! For this dress I would go with a fun color https://www.anthropologie.com/shop/the-fiona-beaded-bag-chain-edition?category=night-out-bags&color=050&type=STANDARD&size=One%20Size&quantity=1 Shoes- in gold metalic https://www.anthropologie.com/shop/dolce-vita-baylor-kitten-heels?category=shoes-sandals&color=070&type=STANDARD&quantity=1 https://www.anthropologie.com/shop/vicenza-square-toe-heels?category=shoes-sandals&color=010&type=STANDARD&quantity=1 Jacket - https://www.anthropologie.com/shop/by-anthropologie-sequin-cropped-moto-jacket?category=jackets-coats&color=009&type=STANDARD&quantity=1 https://www.anthropologie.com/shop/by-anthropologie-icy-shine-bomber-jacket?category=jackets-coats&color=007&type=STANDARD&quantity=1 https://www.anthropologie.com/shop/maeve-faux-fur-shrug2?category=jackets-coats&color=012&type=STANDARD&quantity=1 [/quote] I agree to all of this and I'm a Californian. That dress is too casual and too bare and too much of a sundress. Just wear something nice to be worn outside in a garden but appropriately respectiful, i.e., not spaghetti straps and braless as you present.[/quote]
