WHAT TO WEAR TO YOUR EX'S WEDDING

Your best option is to RSVP “no” — wearing one of these is a close second.

Of all of the precarious paths you may tread in life, there is perhaps none more treacherous than attending an ex’s wedding. It’s an arduous task to find an outfit that strikes the right balance between stunner and saboteur. And while we do not envy your position (not even a little), we’re here to offer up our best advice.

As tempting as it may be to cosplay Taylor Swift a la the instantly iconic I Bet You Think About Me, we’d strongly advise you abstain. Why are we spoiling all your fun? Because we are never proponents of outshining the bride (remember that Kendall Jenner incident?). So while they may say that revenge is a dish best served cold, in this case a Revenge Dress is a look best served elsewhere.

However, while outshining is a “no”, a little sparkle is not out of the question. In this situation, on this night, we assert that it is still your God-given right to look good. Great, even. We believe the best looks for an ex’s wedding are classy with a hint of drama -- kind of like your relationship with him was. Think: open backs, stunning fabrics, and striking colors.

So raise a glass, enjoy the passed hors d'oeuvres, and please, for the love of all that is good and holy, be sure to look amazing and forever hold your peace.
