What do I wear to a bridal luncheon for a 25yo?

I know everyone is going to be casual. But, that will mean springy skirts and such. I have not been shopping for myself this season...and, only have one spring-type dress that is more dressy. I wore it to sing in a wedding. I think it's too dressy.

I look good in brown. I have a brown, short-sleeved shirt that matches a skirt with tan, brown, turquoise, and I think one other light color. Or, I have a cute black skirt with white poka-dots...that flares at the bottom. The blouse I wear with that is a white, flowy, piratey-type style. Does that make sense? However, I would need to wear my black shoes with that. Does black work for a bridal luncheon?

I guess I can figure something else out...or, go shopping in the A.M. tomorrow.

Sigh...

Thanks for any thoughts! Be kind!!

Smiles!

That sounds very appropriate. I think the white top would keep it from looking too dark. Besides, fashion has changed. I wore a black dress to the last wedding I went to (as did many people.) I'm in my sisters wedding at the end of April and our bridesmaid dresses are black.

ETA: The brown outfit also sounds appropriate, if you feel more comfortable in it.

Not to contradict the other responder, but I love brown. The other would not be inapropriate though. Have fun. Eat some cake for me. I will be freezing at dd's soccer practice tomorrow!
