What to wear Easter Morning?

This is a dilemma I have every year, I’ve celebrated Easter every year since childhood, but since I was not brought up in a particularly religious manner Easter was strictly of the commercial kind.

Now, as an adult I find myself obligated to continue with tradition and I always find myself in a quandary.

The “Easter bonnet” is tradition, but no one really wears hats much anymore (much to my dismay, if you feel like rocking one I say more power to you!) That tradition does hold on to this need to dress nicely. Easter is not a casual affair.

One must also look festive; the go to LBD does not work for this event.
So, there is the color question…you want to be festive, but you don’t want to actually look like an Easter egg. After all, you don’t want to look like you are wearing a costume, this is not Halloween!
I advise everyone to look current and Chic, no matter what the affair.
Some color is necessary for a true Easter look, but to stay updated, look well dressed.
Blousy tops, ruffles, bows, floral are all perfect trends for an Easter look, if done with an editing eye.
Try pairing a pop of color with the current neutrals.
For a more casual look try a bright ruffled blouse with dressy Khaki short and a pump. A Draped flesh toned dress will make you look chic, pair it with a pop of color in the shoe. A sheer blouse with a fun skirt and floral nude shoes is a playful look.









A ruffled solid skirt with a printed top is a nice way to bring color to your face.
Remember, have fun with your look, choose one “Easter” piece and build around it!
