The Little White Dress
The ladies behind Weddington Way, the online boutique for bridesmaid dresses, understand how important it is for brides-to-be to find the perfect little white dress for each occasion. They recently launched a little white dress line where brides can pick from Kirribilla’s LWD collection or LWDs by Watters and Donna Morgan.
Whether you’re looking for a cute number to sport at your engagement party or something more casual for your rehearsal dinner, you can’t go wrong with one of these classic LWDs. The lace and ruffle detailing is spot on with summer’s top fashion trends and the short lengths are flirty and fun. Don’t forget to add your own style to the dress with bold or colorful accessories and vibrant gleaming jewelry. Here are a few of our favorite ideas.
