I still remember the days when I'd walk (albeit, hesitantly) into Abercrombie & Fitch – at my local mall no less, gasp! – and be enveloped by a dense, dark cloud of their signature musk. Now, the A&F styles of my youth are being re-sold on eBay as 'vintage' items. Eek!
The fashion powerhouse went through a massive rebrand in 2021, and turns out, I'm still obsessed with the mall brand that ruled my teen years. Abercrombie & Fitch still sells all the basics (tees, tanks, jeans, and more), but what's really been living rent-free in my head is their wedding guest dresses! There are so many styles to explore, which come at an especially great time since wedding season's about to get real busy.
These 8 Abercrombie wedding guest dresses are all you need to pull a look at this year's ceremonies. With more mature silhouettes, flattering colors, and a variety of sizes to suit everyone, there's a perfect Abercrombie wedding guest dress waiting for you below!
Draped Skirt Maxi Dress
This figure-hugging (but still stretchy) maxi dress features a flattering cinched detail along the waistline that falls down into a long straight skirt with a tall slit. The high boat neckline is more modest, but the back opens up, allowing you to show some skin.
The open back on this satin dress secures with a dainty bow tie that evens out the entire look! Not to mention, this butter yellow color is super trendy right now (and very fit for summertime), so you'll be absolutely slaying as a guest at the next wedding you go to.
This Draped Skirt Maxi Dress goes for $130 and is shoppable in 5 other colors in regular, petite, and tall sizes.
The A&F Giselle Pleated One-Shoulder Maxi Dress
Give 'em some shoulder with this elegant maxi! The satin material is finely pleated throughout, leading directly to the heightened waistline that shapes and cinches you in the best way. This luxe-looking dress doesn't feature any stretchiness or adjustable straps, though customers say it accurately fits true to size. It secures with a discreet zipper on the side.
This Abercrombie & Fitch wedding guest dress is $150 and shoppable in 5 other colors and regular, petite, and tall sizes.
Angel Sleeve O-Ring Gown
This serene green gown comes ready to wear in a smooth satin fabric, which is fairly breathable for the warmer months. The maxi-length hemline falls around the ankles and juts up to form a flirty leg slit. While the bottom half of this wedding guest dress is reminiscent of your typical maxi style, the top has all things fun goin' on. Flutter sleeves and a cheeky o-ring neckline make for the perfect picture-taking and post-ceremony dancing dress!
The Angel Sleeve O-Ring Gown costs $140. You can also snag it in a blue hue in regular, petite, and tall sizes.
The A&F Giselle Pleat Release Midi Dress
Since pleats are an instant giveaway to more elevated styles, it's no wonder most of the Abercrombie wedding guest dresses feature them. This strapless midi design (also comes with removable spaghetti straps) is pleated all over and partners up with an adorable contrasting floral pattern for added visual interest. The straight neckline hugs your bodice with a flexible stretch.
This Giselle Pleat Release Midi Dress costs $130 and is shoppable in 3 other colors and regular, petite, and tall sizes.
One-Shoulder Asymmetrical Hem Midi Dress
A solid navy blue can do no wrong, IMO. This midi boasts an asymmetrical hemline that's anything but bland! It's crafted from a "sculpting stretch-enhanced crepe fabric" that'll hug you in comfortably. The tiered design is definitely more fitted up top, while the bottom half swings freely. This pick is an easy one-and-done type of style, as it's free of any adjustable straps, ties, or zippers.
The One-Shoulder Asymmetrical Hem Midi Dress is also shoppable in black for $130 in regular, petite, and tall sizes.
Ruffle Strap High-Low Maxi Dress
Bury me in this ruffle dress! It has me wanting to bring back the high-low look in full force this year. This wedding guest dress has ruffles galore – on the straps and along the waist and bottom hem. The wrap-around bodice is super flatting and a bit more revealing with a classy v-neck shape. The drop waist detail mirrors the asymmetrical length of the skirt, elongating your midsection. This chiffon dress secures in the back with a thin zipper.
The Ruffle Strap High-Low Maxi Dress clocks in at $130, and you can shop it in 3 other colors in regular, petite, and tall sizes.
Drama Bow-Back Taffeta Gown
For a more casual wedding guest ensemble, this flowy frock is my #1 pick. It's less fitted than other Abercrombie wedding guest dresses, featuring a babydoll silhouette that hugs the chest more than the belly. This way, you'll have ample room to breathe during the big day! Though less structured, the cinching along each tier of this maxi brings forth the drama – plus there's an adorable bow in the back.
The Drama Bow-Back Taffeta Gown goes for $150 and is available in 3 other colors in regular, petite, and tall sizes.
Taffeta Off-The-Shoulder Midi Dress
The stretchy taffeta fabric this midi's made from hosts a nice, shiny finish for taking your look to the next level. The structured bodice is brought up to an off-the-shoulder neckline with elegant puff sleeves that don't feel too overdone. The straight skirt boasts an equally elegant leg slit that hits around the top of the thigh.
The Taffeta Off-The-Shoulder Midi Dress is also shoppable in a bright magenta color for $130 and regular, petite, and tall sizes.

A Cinderella Story isn't just a movie — it's honestly a cultural moment. The costume montage, the spastic colons and synchronized swimming, the rain in this drought... even Gavin Degraw singing over the One Tree Hilltrailer on the DVD stand out! Everything about this film is iconically ingrained in our collective conscious, making Hilary Duff and Chad Michael Murray the Y2k blueprint for many of the "It" pairings we know and love today.
We last left our Princeton royalty preparing for their freshman year of college, dreaming of happily-ever-after — or at least graduation — and that was that! But in this era of reboots, I've often wondered what happened to our OG tortured poets after the credits rolled. Luckily, I'm not the only one! Chad Michael Murray just tee'd up a sequel, and yes that's me you hear squealing right now. Here's everything we know about what's to come for everyone's fave modern fairytale!
Is there a part two to a Cinderella story?

There's Another Cinderella Story, starring Selena Gomez and Drew Seeley, but that's more so a part of a series of "Cinderella stories" rather than an actual sequel. So far, we haven't gotten a follow-up on our Princeton-bound faves.
Has "A Cinderella Story 2" been announced?
There's been no formal announcement yet, but that doesn't mean all hope is lost. During his press tour for Mother of the Bride, Chad Michael Murray told ETthat he's definitely interested in bringing Austin Ames back. He said that even his daughter told him, "You need to make another one of these, Daddy," after she watched A Cinderella Story for the first time.
His response to the idea? "Here you go, Hil. From me to you, let's do it!" — referring to Hilary Duff, of course! The timing couldn't be better either, given that Hilary just gave birth to her fourth child and could hypothetically be available to film in the coming months...just saying!
Again, there's no official information about this project yet, but with a main piece of the puzzle on board, we're one step closer to my own personal happily-ever-after — a real sequel to A Cinderella Story once and for all.

The wedding bells are calling and so are all your wedding season outfits! This happens to be my favorite time of year when I can celebrate with friends and family at different weddings while also getting to glam up with a fun wedding guest dress and shoes! But when it comes to heels, it can be hard to strike the right balance of looking good and letting you dance the night away. They have to be on trend, comfortable enough to wear for 5+ hours, and wearable for other occasions so you don't wear them once and never again. We're all about closet essentials so without further ado, let's get to these cute, wearable, and comfortable wedding guest shoes to pick from for the season!
Shop Wedding Guest Shoes Here!
J.Crew Ankle Strap Raffia Platforms
You know we love raffia, but who doesn't?! This pair takes raffia to a whole other level with these discounted, platform raffia heels! J.Crew is my new favorite place to shop for closet essentials because they often do sales and discounts on their items. These $159 platforms are sure to be a summer staple even outside of wedding season!
J.Crew Made In Italy Satin Heels
These Italian-made luxury satin heeled are great if you plan to go with a darker ensemble for any weddings with a black dress. On the website it even says, "This strappy pair is ideal for wedding dance floors and date nights alike." Well you head it straight from J.Crew themselves! Grab these luxurious heels while they're still on sale for 40% off!
Reformation Wade Kitten Heel
I absolutely adore these sweet kitten heels from the one-and-only Reformation! These stain kitten heels with an adorable bow on the front are the perfect option for wedding season that will go with so many dresses. I also like how they're paired with the jeans and sweater above for styling outside of wedding season. You will definitely get a lot of wear out of thees. And because they're a lower kitten heel, they're going to be sooo comfortable and able to wear for hours at a time!
Target Antonette Heels
Looking for shoes that scream spring while also are under $50? Look no further! Target has the best options for finding affordable shoes that are still comfortable and fashionable! I can picture these stunning, floral heels on the dance floor at any wedding styled perfectly with a sweet floral dress to match. Adding to cart ASAP!
Reformation Wilder Slingback
Another raffia pick but this time in my favorite form; slingback! Slingbacks especially when paired with a kitten heel tend to be sooo much more comfortable than a typical heel because they offer more support and less height. Catch these at a wedding or paired with a super cute mini dress on a summer day.
Steve Madden Drew Slingback Heels
Opting for a darker shoe, these velvet and gold heels give me all the YSL vibes at a much cheaper price. Wearing these with a black long, fitted dress would look so sophisticated and up-scale. Steve Madden truly knows how to do shoes well!
Banana Republic Butter Yellow Sandal
Everyone's been talking about the butter yellow trend and what better than butter yellow sandals?! To achieve maximum comfort when it comes to wedding shoes, kitten heels or sandals are the way to go. These scrappy sandals look so luxurious and high fashion; exactly what Banana Republic's specialty is. But at a more achievable price-point!
Reformation Sienna Heeled Sandal
In every summer wardrobe, you need a strappy basic pair of heels like this pair. They do a great job of elongating your legs and flattering your outfit. I promise, you will get sooo much wear out of theses, and they're sure to match any of your wedding guest outfit options.
Jeffrey Campbell Gratis Mule
These vintage-inspired mules are everywhere at the moment! They're currently trending on social media and we understand why! I love that they look like vintage Prada heels that were popular around the late 90's and early 2000's. I think they would make an adorable pairing for a wedding guest outfit.
Larroude Flower Sandal
Larroude is one of my favorite brands because their shoes are always incredibly unique always have a fun twist! I own multiple pairs of shoes from them and they're comfortable meets chic! Style these with a simple outfit and let them have a moment of their own.

Amazon's adaptation of Casey McQuiston’s famed Red, White & Royal Blueblew our minds with its perfectly extravagant and messy royal romance. Prince Henry and Alex Claremont-Diaz stole our hearts with their antics, proving that love isn't always as cookie cutter as we think it should be. Not only that, but it was the LGBT film we never knew we needed until it hit the big screen last year.
If you've been missing Prince Henry and Alex, you're in luck because a sequel to Red, White & Royal Blue is officially coming! Here's everything we know about the latest developments!
Is the main cast returning?

I'm happy to share that Nicholas Galitzine and Taylor Zakhar Perez are returning! I honestly don't think the Red, White & Royal Blue sequel would be the same if they weren't.
However, no other cast information has been released! Hopefully we'll see Uma Thurman and Clifton Collins, Jr. reprise their roles!
What's the sequel going to be about?
Image via Prime Video
As of yet, Variety reports that not much has been confirmed about the sequel's plot or release date. My guess is that there the two lovebirds will have to juggle new responsibilities and mishaps.
What the original plot of "Red, White & Royal Blue?"
Image via Prime Video
The novel centers around the character of Alex Claremont-Diaz, a first son of the United States, and his romantic relationship with Prince Henry, British royalty.
Take a walk down memory lane with these behind-the-scenes pictures 👀
We cannot wait to see what new adventures are two lovebirds will cook up in Red, White & Royal Blue, but for now we’ll be rereading (and rereading) RWRB.
