The key to a successful garden party is all in the details, from the table settings to the menu, the guest list, and of course, the fashion. This week, I am working with a palette of gorgeous greens, blues, pinks, and creams as we cover all elegant daytime looks.

Green Goddess

This billowing green floral mini dress by Kiki Vargas is absolutely stunning. It feels whimsical yet sexy and perfect for a daytime garden-inspired event. I paired it with a simple black strappy sandal, a wardrobe staple for all seasons, and a black clutch. A bright and eye-catching dress deserves the spotlight, so be sure to style yours with simple and understated accessories so the final look isn't too busy.

Sweet Cream

Here is a softer look with a feminine flowing floral skirt by Bardot and a white blouse by Lucy Paris, both available at approachable price points, just $89 for the top and $139 for the skirt! I styled these pieces with my new go-to sandal by Gucci in cream with a platform for some height. Tone this look down with a denim jacket or lightweight cashmere V-neck sweater draped over your shoulders, or dress it up with an ivory blazer.

A Royal Finish

The derby this past weekend ushered in lots of fabulous fashion inspiration. I love this electric blue dress by AKRIS. It has a figure-flattering silhouette with an a-line hem. I styled it with a magenta pump; see another option here for some pop and flair in light of the weekend activities. Finish with an extravagant hat for the ultimate accessory.
