A garden tea party is usually a semi-formal event that’s fun for food, the weather and what to wear. Warm days and comfortable cool evenings make the right atmosphere for a lush garden tea party. It is also the perfect weather for the chic smart casual dressing that tea parties require.
SEMI-FORMAL EVENTS
This outfit edit serves as style inspiration if you’re preparing a look for an upcoming garden tea party or looking for what to wear to a semi-formal event. Fabulous spring garden parties are also used for many other celebrations that you may attend. Including beautiful baby and bridal showers, Easter parties, Mother’s Day brunch, and Birthdays. Similar looks are also great to wear to Chelsea flower show and other formal outdoor events.
A shirt dress is the perfect combination of smart and playful and its versatility is amazing. It has the ability to be more causal in a cotton or lighter fabric, even depending on the skirt length. By selecting a silk finish and metallic colour like this champagne shirtdress, it provides a more lustrous appeal.
GARDEN TEA PARTY ACCESSORIES
When it comes to garden party footwear, wedges will be your best friend. And there is no need to settle for bulky flat brick-like options. Choosing beautifully shaped wedge heels, like the metallic suede espadrille sandals, with some statement detailing and a flattering silhouette will serve you well.
As the spring theme of a garden tea party will usually revolve around florals and pretty light colours, your outfit colours are important. For colour codes, think florals, metallics, pastels, pinks, whites and earth tones. For accessories, a pretty hat is a lovely accessory welcomed at tea parties. Rather, if you find hats too stuffy, try the contemporary style option of the statement silk knot headband instead. Be sure to keep your jewellery demure, classy and simple. And lastly, don’t forget your sunglasses.
