This Celeb-Approved Style Hack Will Get You Noticed at Summer Weddings
Recommended for you
There’s something refreshing about celebrities who wear their everyday items in an unexpected way, such as when they repurpose a DIYed t-shirt with a killer formal suit or wear a simple white button down with a ballgown skirt. Lately, they’ve been rocking moto jackets with their red carpet-ready princess gowns, and it looks good, y’all.
Style maven Whitney Port even wore it in Barcelona to an event. It’s a great way to take something classy and give it just a hint of edge.
Selita Ebanks wore it on the red carpet at a recent NYC Ballet event — super surprising choice for a formal event like that! The off-beat combo of a long, sweeping gown with a tough leather topper is perfect for all your summer wedding needs — you’ll definitely be a style star with this look. Here are some of our favorite combos.
1. Lilla P Terry Moto Jacket ($240) and A by Amanda Rio Maxi ($99): This soft-shouldered jacket will keep the chill away for sure, and can also be used in-office and for a casual weekend. It’s a great investment piece, with this being the most surprising way to wear it.
2. BLANKNYC Faux Leather Moto Jacket ($98) and Wildfox Floral Maxi ($158): Just like Whitney’s pale, dreamy colors, this pink and blue combo takes two daytime closet staples and makes them into a nighttime ensemble with jazzed up jewelry, strappy heels and a metallic clutch.
3. Levi’s Faux Leather Moto Jacket ($98) and Hemant and Nandita Printed Maxi ($308): Navy blue leather is really pretty against a printed maxi dress — perfect for an urban afternoon wedding. Pull your hair back into a pretty braid or bun and add drop earrings to make it totally wedding worthy.
4. Lamarque Lambskin Moto Jacket ($475) and Everly Maxi Dress ($52): If you’re looking for a classic black leather moto jacket, this one from Lamarque is really versatile. An understated blush colored maxi dress is a beautiful canvas for a really stunning necklace.
5. Neiman Marcus Leather Zip Moto Jacket ($325) and Lush Maxi Dress ($48): Hot pink moto jacket?! Why the heck not. It’s really pretty against a simple navy dress — let the jacket speak for itself as an accessory.
