I don’t dislike em at all, but I cannot believe she wore that to a wedding! Crumpled dress, huge creases, vest top and cycling shorts under instead of a slip and trainers. I’ve BF 2 babies, had a wedding 6 weeks after my second. I didn’t feel great in myself but I was able to make some effort. Having a baby shouldn’t stop that. Alex can watch the baby while she sorts herself for the wedding! You don’t have to be a martyr
omg I’d be livid if a guest showed up like that to my wedding. Not because I’m a bridezilla, but because it’s a formal, thoughtful event and it’s basic courtesy to dress to reflect that.
the dress itself is fine, it doesn’t really suit her but I get there are breast feeding limitations.
why wouldn’t she wear a nice pair of flats? Or a block heel? Because her toenails are sad? Wtf does that mean? Wear closed toe shoes then…? A black pair of basic ballets from New Look would’ve looked better than that, and matched the colour of the undie set she’s got on.
why wouldn’t she iron or steam the dress? It takes 15’minutes. It’s so badly crumpled at the bottom. Looks like it’s made of lyocell, which doesn’t normally wrinkly horrendously. So she’s actually left the house like that without opening or steaming it.
she looks like she’s about to go to a stroll in the park, not to a wedding.
a wedding is a formal event. Couples pay tens of thousands for a three course meal usually, at a upmarket venue with (often) live music. It’s one of the most significant days in their lives. One which will be photographed and remembered forever for them. The least, the very least, a guest can do - is dress to reflect the seriousness and significance of the event. It isn’t just a standard celebration; it’s a huge commitment in front of family and friends, that the couple have likely been planning for months.
the cycling shorts combo look awful underneath, but honestly it could’ve been salvaged without the trainers. I really hope she puts on a pair of black flats and brushes her hair or something.
I’d be livid if a guest turned up to my upcoming wedding in that. Id never have the utter gall to turn up to a wedding in trainers. I had a sprained ankle one and brought a pair of flats in a large clutch. Zero need for anyone - pregnant, postpartum or not - to wear bloody trainers to a wedding. The worst thing is, em isn’t the first influencer I’ve seen turn up to a wedding in trainers and a casual dress. It’s like they are so egotistical they don’t think a wedding of a pleb is as a big a deal as theirs. It comes across as utterly thoughtless. She’s put zero effort into how she looks and if a guest of mine turned up like that, to the dream wedding I’d planned to the love of my life - I’d feel so disrespected. Does she not think other people’s weddings are as important as hers or something?
I get she’s a new mum and it’s hard to dress for a changing body, which can be hard to come to terms with on a psychological level as well. It’s not something I have first hand experience with, but a lot of my friends have come to weddings while pregnant or soon after having their babies. Not a single one turned up in trainers. They’d all groomed and styled their hair, wore nice dresses, had proper shoes.
im shocked she isn’t embarrassed to post that tbh.
maybe the wedding is a city hall event and they are going for a chilled park picnic reception afterwards. That’s the only scenario I can think where to dress like that would be OK.
