These days, there are no rules when it comes to what to wear down the aisle on your wedding day.
If you’ve already devoured pages and pages of wedding magazines and Pinterest boards, the world of white dresses has probably become a blur. The runways, on the other hand, are an ever-changing source of inspiration. Plus, investing in trendy pieces that translate seamlessly into real life is a style-savvy approach any budget-conscience bride can get behind.
From unexpected crawler earrings to a standout pair of shoes, these luxe picks are perfect for when you want to say “I do” while still expressing your personal style.
