What to Wear Over 40–Casual Summer Wedding

The scene:  A casual summer wedding, in a garden or on a patio or a bridal shower, brunch or other daytime summer celebration

The outfit:  A floaty garden party dress (Foley + Corinna at Chickdowntown.com) paired with whimsical shoes (Donna Karan at Zappos.com) with heels that won’t sink into the grass, a little sweater (Talbots.com) for some coverage and one piece of statement jewelry–a gemstone necklace
