Graduation 2021 Style Guide
As graduation & commencement season approaches, I want to go beyond instagram and create a static post for all the grads out there!
Here you will find my styling suggestions- I hope this post will help you feel 100% confident on your special day.
A white dress is the most traditional look for graduation- but within that category there is plenty of room to express yourself! Here are 3 different ideas, ranging from understated & chic, to more laid back and casual.
outfit 1: this Abercrombie Midi dress is my personal favorite style- I’d pair this with all white accessories & gold jewelry.
outfit 2: this Lulu’s Wrap Dress is for those with a girly / feminine side to their style- mix in beige or brown accessories to give the look some color..
outfit 3: this L’Academie Knit Dress is perfect if you’re looking for something super comfortable (and wearable for future looks!).
A little black dress is a winner for any event, even graduation! I’ve chosen 3 pieces that are flattering while staying true to the formality of the occasion.
outfit 1: so nice I styled it twice- this same Abercrombie Midi Dress comes in black too. I’d keep the same solid color outfit as before, only with all black accessories.
outfit 2: I was pleasantly surprised to find this Revolve Sweetheart Neckline Dress- a great alternative to the designer Khaite’s famous silhouette.
outfit 3: for my petite girls, this 4th & Reckless Wrap Dress is an awesome shorter option- simple & chic, this piece would look amazing with some chunky gold hoops.
I’ve narrowed down the shoe options to these 3 styles- these work with the dresses shown above, and can be incorporated into your everyday spring / summer outfits as well.
Aloha’s Twist Strap Sandal: these come in a few shades, but the camel pair is my personal favorite.
ALDO’s Kaviel Sandal: this strap-y pair is the perfect affordable alternative to the Bottega Veneta style I always post (both shades available)!
Dolce Vita’s Natie Sandal: by far the most comfortable option- this block heel is super easy to walk in, and the clear straps compliment both white and black.
