Summer Tanagers are often out of sight, foraging high in trees, sometimes flying out to catch insects in flight. They mainly eat insects, especially bees and wasps, and berries. Fruit of Annonaceae are an especially well-liked food in their winter quarters and will forage in human-altered habitat

Outdoor New England wedding in late September, DC is cocktail. Appropriate? And is this giving Christmas, or is it nice for Fall?

ok for semi formal / formal?

was told formal by partner but i think it’s more the “dressing up” formal and less the “floor length gown” formal - first wedding i’ve ever been to 😩

Late-September wedding at country club

I’m really struggling to find a dress I like for a formal DC wedding late this month. Does this fit the bill? Seems maybe a bit semi-formal. Was going to get some statement earrings, clutch, and nice shoes too. TIA!

Early October Wedding

I have a wedding for a college friend in Minneapolis in October. The dress code said “black tie” but when I asked the groom he said it’s more just so his family doesn’t wear jeans. He said the girls standing in the wedding are wearing “Cabernet” color - mix of dresses and suits from what I can tell. I asked two other female attendees what they plan to wear - one is wearing a formal dark green pantsuit and the other is wearing a long tiered lace burgundy dress. I’d like to reuse this dress from a past bridesmaid stint… is this appropriate? Too Christmas-y for October?

Sept. WA mountain wedding. Semi formal. Does this work?

Tuxedo dress?

This suits my personal style much more than a sparkly long gown, and I know I will get multiple wears out of it. I plan on wearing a black slip underneath, so the sides will not be exposed skin. My concerns are: - Length. The model is 9” taller than me, but it falls just above the knee on me. - White lapels. Is that permitted? Thoughts please? Thanks!

How to style/accessorize this gown for my sister’s wedding this weekend!

I’m doing a reading and making a toast for my baby sister’s wedding this coming Saturday. I’ll be escorted in by my husband after the mother of the groom, my mom is giving my sister away, and hubby and I helped raise my sister, so she’s treating us as her extra parents, we’re part of the wedding party in that regard- and more dressed up than a regular guest, if that makes sense, lol. Anyway, I’m wearing this fishtail gown and I can’t decide on shoes/jewelry/bag. I was thinking gold jewelry, so would a gold bag and shoes be too much? The wedding is at a fancy farm, lol. It’s inside and outside. They don’t have a dress code, but I would say it’s formal, not black tie though. The dress comes with a black belt that is worn under the bust, not at the waist. I don’t have to wear it, but I kind of like it. My daughter and sister said I could maybe get a different belt to match my accessories if I wanted, so that could be an option, too. I also need a shawl for the night portion- ceremony is at 4:30, wedding ends at midnight. I’m terrible with styling myself- please help! Gown is pictured- it’s a Norma Kamali fishtail gown. In black.
