From must-have bridal looks to ensem’s for a backyard bash, the latest in party-going style trends are worth celebrating

With most pre-party-style-prep, there is a single, universal question: What do I wear? No matter the occasion—whether for your own wedding or if you’re headed to your cousin’s big day, deciding what to slip on makes a fashion statement. From center stage and face-to-face with your betrothed, or favorably perched in the front row of your sister’s vow renewal; to working the buffet at the farmhouse-style gathering of your co-worker’s baby shower—here are key trends to the I do’s-and-don’ts of what-not-to-wear and what to give an emphatic, high-in-the-sky, sign of the horns. Because, party rock stars know you have one chance for a killer performance.
