Light Blue and White Outfits: The Formal Edit
If you only buy one thing today...
I can’t help myself - it’s a tie - these are two of the best dresses I’ve seen in a long time!
For Her
Floral Lace Dress - This is the ultimate blue and white dress. Equal parts classic and fresh with the floral applique, and a super flattering fit, this will photograph incredibly well and stand the test of time. BONUS! I shared this sleeveless version on Instagram because it’s such a steal! Follow CarolMadeMeDoIt on IG or sign up for emails to get sale alerts!
Classic Navy Pumps - With the texture of the dress, keep it simple and clean with these pumps.
Triple Strand Pearl Bracelet - Up the ante with a 3-strand pearl bracelet - a bigger look for your photos, and sure to be a heirloom to come. Plus, the number 3 is always so meaningful for families!
Sleeveless Dress - This solid dress is a solid choice. Adding a fitted cardigan (short, not too long) is also an option, or a long necklace, or keep it clean and classic with the beautiful tailoring in the light blue beauty - lots of versatility in styling!
Scalloped Heels - Against the clean lines of the dress, introduce a bit of whimsy with the scallop edge of this recognizable pump. IYKYK.
Pearl Headband - Keep the other accessories minimal but say it all with this straight from the Upper East Side headband.
For Him
Cashmere Sweater - Major sale alert on this classic blue sweater!
Blue Pants - Ground your whole color scheme with the patriarch of the family with these pants
Classic Loafers - He may already have these in his closet, so check before purchasing!
Striped Sweater - Yes, it is striped! The subtle detail adds interest to the eye in the great find
Cream Pants - A tried-and-true fit and staple for his closet and seasons to come
Driving Mocs - You can’t go wrong with blue suede shoes, and show that you’re not taking yourself too seriously with a bit of a fun shoe!
For Girl
Petal Dress - This sweet little dress was made for family events and family photos!
Blue Shoes - The scalloping on these shoes plays off the petals of the dress nicely, not to mention the shoes for mom!
Floral Print Dress with Sash - I mean, is there a more perfect dress than this?! It is everything and more!
Patent Ballet Flats - Keep the shoes simple with such a beautiful dress
For Boy
Cardigan - There’s always something so sweet about a little boy in a cardigan - just ask Prince George!
Button-Down Shirt - A beautiful pattern and classic shirt that keeps the outfit looking masculine
Cream Pants - Great staple for his little closet - but pack a change of clothes for playtime!
Wingtip Sneaker - This outfit is all about juxtaposition and mixing it up, just like these sneakers with wingtip detailing!
Cardigan - Pair the littlest one in a cardigan as well to tie it all together. Note that this cardigan could easily be unisex - swap out the bottoms with a skirt - to get use out of it for years and kids to come
Pants with Belt - Another super sale, and belt included!
Driving mocs - Twin with dad with a classic pair of driving mocs
