Wedding Dresses Under $200 Even Meghan Markle Would Approve Of

Whilst Meghan starts her new life as a royal, many of us are still discussing and gathering inspirations from her recent wedding outfit. From hollywood to a royalty, I would imagine the many factors she had to consider picking out her dress. Keeping it simple yet elegant, tasteful yet with a hint of sexiness and va-va-voom!



The slightly off shoulder boat neck style she wore certainly had me starting to look at dresses in that style. And so my first choice of wedding dresses under US$ 200, would be this popular wedding dress off shoulder lace number above. If I had a choice to do it all over again, this would be one of my top picks.




A perfect choice fit for royalty would be the Princess Ballgown. Full tulle skirt, covered 3/4 sleeves and lace galore. This number above speaks for itself of full royalty elegance and a classic dress to walk down the aisle in. Indeed a style Grace Kelly would also approve of.




Now this style is slightly controversial for a princess, but certainly appropriate for the many of us " commoners". Quite similar to Kate Middleton's wedding dress style, the bodice is totally lace with a deep V to accentuate the decolletage. However the long lace sleeves, kept this number in check in terms of classiness and elegance.







A very popular wedding dress style is the Mermaid Style. And before you jump and say " its not for me", look at the several variations above to match any body type and figure.

Again, the main essence in these selections is lace and more lace! I love how simple some of the outfits can be, whilst others have that extra touch of a lower back or subtle neckline. 





I know how tight one's budget can get with a full blown wedding party, hence this beautiful 2-in-1 wedding dress gives you the best of both worlds. Complete with a large church train, this dress takes you down the aisle in style. Capture those lovely shots with this big and beautiful outfit. However when it comes to the dinner party, toss off that removable large train and you got yourself a sexy, slinky evening dress to dance the night away in. A perfect dress which you can recycle as an evening outfit to other black tie events. Most of us cannot do that with our wedding outfits so imagine the mileage you will get with this style.

And so these are my top 5 Wedding Dress Styles, all under the very manageable budget of US$ 200 and certainly styles I am sure Meghan Markle would approve of.

Have fun dress shopping and share with me below which is your favourite wedding dress style above.

Wedding Season :: Bridesmaid and Occasion Dresses( featuring Aislestyle UK)


Charming A Line Long Sleeve Beading Floor Length Chiffon Prom Dress
Hi everyone,

A little different treat of a post this weekend.

Whilst we continue to enjoy the Awards season ( the recent Oscars / Academy Awards with it's ups and downs) and closely monitoring the beautiful dresses and accessories of the celebrities as they walk down the red carpet - this has inspired me to work with Aislestyle.co.uk to bring you their collection of beautiful bridesmaid dresses which could easily double up as cocktail or prom dresses and/or special occasion dresses.

For me, a bridesmaid dress needs to be as elegant as the wedding dress but yet not overpower it that it steals the limelight from the bride. Here are some long bridesmaid dresses I personally love. Lace Bridesmaid Dresses are also very common choices too and although I have highlighted the dresses below in paler colours, they are also available in a variety of colours for the best match to your occasion :

Classical Blush Strapless Sweetheart Pleated Tulle Bridesmaid dress
Muted Mint Scoop Neck Floral Lace Bodice Sleeveless A-Line Long Chiffon Bridesmaid Dress
Halter High Neck Sleeveless Beaded Embellished Column Long Chiffon Bridesmaid Dress

V Neck Lace Sheath Sleeveless Zipper Bridesmaid Dress

To be different and for those in more tropical climates, short bridesmaid dresses are also perfect choices for recycling into cocktail dresses for another occasion.

A Line Zipper Chiffon Natural Short Bridesmaid Dress

A Line Sleeveless Taffeta Shoulder Straps Short Bridesmaid Dresses
High Neck A-Line Knee Length Zipper Sleeveless Bridesmaid Dress
Whilst some of us would either be planning for a wedding in 2017, I am sure many of you would be looking at wedding party dresses for those invitations you will be receiving this year. So, here are some of my favourites choices :

Charming A Line Sweetheart Ruching Floor Length Tulle Cocktail Dresses

Red A line Bateau Long Sleeve Beading Lace Long Prom Dress

Sleeveless one shoulder white and black long satin prom dress
