Thank you so much for watching today's video!

Mother of a FALL BRIDE!! Will keep watching!!
The second dress, the Eliza J was absolutely stunning. Had no idea when you showed it initially.
The Blue Flowery Print Is The Prettiest!💙💙
My favorite too! 🌸
I recently found your channel. Your content is great, your sweet tone of voice, body language etc etc. Not to mention those beautiful outfits. Thank you for loving what you do.
Thanks so much Carolina. Those are kind words indeed. 🥰
Great variety! I have found when I look back at family wedding photos, the print dresses look dated. I always try to wear a solid colored dress for that reason.
I like print but I agree that solids are more classic
Beautiful modest and classy
Thank you for watching Linda. 😊
The dress you are wearing would be nice for a wedding also.
All are elegant, but you look just gorgeous in Look #2!
Thanks!
My favourite dress was the blue floral one, Yu look great!
Thank you. That’s my favorite too. 😊
That navy floral dress was STUNNING! Wow!!! Loved the video!
Thank you!
Gorgeous dresses. Love floral dresses.
Thanks so much for watching Sherree. Me too! 🌸
Great video, the way you explain each dress on the dress form and then model them is so helpful. Thank you!
If we're going back to more outdoor weddings this summer - My best friend's daughter got married in the middle of summer, over 100 degrees, high humidity, no breeze - outdoors in Oklahoma. Oppressive weather conditions. I knew I'd wilt and didn't want to be embarrassed by excess sweating (although most people in attendance were sweating like crazy). I took a very lightweight straw tote for a handbag and packed in a folding fan. In the tote, I also added 3 gel freezer packs that I kept in the freezer until walking out the door. During the ceremony, I kept the tote (with freezer packs) across my lap, which was very cooling, with my hands and wrists lying on top. I kept cool during the ceremony. During the reception, I used my folding fan and had others begging to borrow it. Gentle hint for those hosting outdoor weddings in excessive heat - offer guests iced drinks for sipping early on - even during the ceremony. Don't wait for the reception.
Great tips, Diana. I actually have a fan I meant to include in the video and forgot. 🤦🏼♀️But I really wish people who have outdoor weddings in the heat would also think to have misters surrounding the area if possible and would furnish guests with paper “funeral home” fans. 🤷🏼♀️
Thank you for these tips! With thyroid issues, I’m very warm at events year round and I’m going to use your ideas to assist.
@@juliecarns Julie, just be careful leaving your phone in the tote with the frozen gel packs.
@@diana6842 Moisture issues? My iPhone tends to overheat so that might help my phone but thanks for the reminder.
Thank you for that! All of the looks were great 👍🏼. Glad you showed the larger floral on, I wouldn’t have guessed that it was a hi/lo dress.
I appreciate you going over the proper undergarments to wear with the different dresses. Thank you so much!
Liked the black flowery dress on you best
You look beautiful in all the dresses!
All beautiful dresses but my favourite is the first dress and all the accessories.
I have the wedding of my nephew(hopefully) in the summer. Choosing a dress is going to be difficult as I am 4ft 11”, round as a ball with an apron tummy. Oh, and I’m nearly 65. 😒
Thanks for the inspiration. 👍😃
Thank you for watching. I’m sure you will find something lovely. And they’ll be so glad you are there!💒
Thank you I have a June wedding. I have found a floral dress similar to dress 2. Next is shoes I really like your options.
Great! Thank you for watching. 🌷
So grateful for this channel. You are so pleasant to listen to and I really need this information. My lifestyle allows me to wear primarily jeans and tops, but I have an upcoming event where I need dress up. Thanks to your attention to every detail of the outfit with links, the process of finding something I like and is appropriate to the occasion will be MUCH easier. Big thanks.
I’m so glad you enjoyed the video and found it resourceful Laura. Thanks for letting me know. 🥰
I love the straw handbag, chunky-heeled shoes, wrap, and shades that you put with the first dress, but the first dress is not my style. I like the beautiful fuchsia dress that you are wearing.
I love the colors in the pretty dark blue wrap dress, and I would like it in a geometric or abstract pattern, or vertical stripes. I usually don't wear floral patterns; I look frumpy in florals. :-) 😊 I love the hoop earrings and Ted Baker bag!
The third dress is fabulous and I love the colors! I love the navy wrap and clutch.
Wonderful! I’m so glad you saw many things you like. 💙
Love dress #1. On the Talbots website the dress has a pink background. On RUclips it looks white. It is a pretty dress and just right for an outdoor wedding I am going to in July.
Oh no it’s definitely pink. I don’t know why it looks white on your RUclips. 🤷🏼♀️ It looks pink on mine. Sorry about the confusion. Thanks for watching! 😊
I had a difficult time deciphering the shade of pink on the Talbot’s website vs the Talbot’s catalog, too; I ordered it and found the background pink to be a spring pink and too pale for me but otherwise likes the details.
Thank you Kate. You are so beautiful and make each dress a winner. Love the tips!
Thanks so much Patricia. 🌸🌸🌸
Love all the dresses, but have to say the tan block sandals look a wee bit too heavy with the first feminine dress, I would go for beige or pink strappy low heel sandals.
I love all 4 dresses. I Have a navy blue floral dress I just bought for Easter and I love it! I would punch up the color in the shoes and wear matching colored shoes in navy or hot pink though. The looks are wonderful and you could wear them all spring long.
Thanks so much for watching Cindee. Yes, pink or even yellow shoes would be very pretty with the dress. 🌸
Your dress choices were beautiful. I really loved each. They all looked so pretty and very feminine. Have a great week!
Thanks so much JoAnn. 💕
Beautiful choices...I especially love the more formal dress with the Navy underlay. Just stunning! I am one who does wear sheer panty hose and prefer that over my pasty white legs! I stay out of the sun now due to a basal cell issue, so hose just work for me. I was very much interested in your comment about the dress shrugs. I have lots of wraps and will be packing the shrugs away and subbing in my wraps. I do see what you mean about the overall look. So glad you mentioned that.
Thanks Karen. As I edited the video, I decided I really like the look with the panty hose best too. Then again I love those strappy sandals. 😉
Beautiful video. Love the advice about dressing for a wedding. I purchased a dress for my son's wedding last year that I never got to wear. Fortunately they are able to have a vow renewal in May. Unfortunately my style has changed a little bit after following you all year. That is a good thing. I know it's about them and whatever I wear it won't matter because this sweet couple can finally have the day they planned.
Enjoy! I’m sorry about not being able to wear it last year. Such a bummer. Hopefully we are moving past this soon. 😊
Also any ideas for casual mother of the Bride outfits?
` I'm looking at something like what Kay is wearing for my casual MOB dress in August.
Me too mother if the groom! I also want casual but no florials.
I love the floral dress #2, my son is getting married in August and Dillards is 15 minutes away!! Thank you so much ❤
Lovely, all 3 dresses and accessories. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and comments on each.
Their is something so nice about you I just subscribed to your channel.
You look like a model. I really enjoy your channel. I love the dress you are wearing for this video.
Thank you so much Angela. I’m so glad you like the channel. You are very kind. 🥰
Good day Kay enjoy watching your video...God bless.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts of what to wear on wedding, you look stunning I love it .I can't find any for this August wedding....hehehe
Thanks for watching. That’s an old video of course. But maybe I’ll do another one soon.
I lLOVE the dressier dress with the navy underlayer and sheer pink design overlay. I would wear a navy dressier sandle and navy sparkle clutch. The soft silk wrap you found is beautiful!!
Thank you. 🥰
I agree the second dress was beautiful
Thanks, Kay. I thought your tips were spot on! I am going to my son's, 1950s theme wedding this summer. I found a beautiful, blush-pink dress at my Dillard's Clearance Store for ... wait for it ... $20!!! And a darling, little 50s-style handbag to go with for ... $25!!! Such a shopping victory. The catch is, I need to alter the dress, but if I can pull it off ... fabulous. BTW: this grandma does not go without hose. Don't want to frighten anyone. Carrying 6 babies have taken their toll on my legs. I find that wearing support hose with longer, below-the-knee dresses is a very pretty, classic look, provided they are worn with closed-toe-shoes as you mentioned. And ... an added plus, no need for Spanx, because the support hose have plenty of firming power. Haha. It's when women wear hose with above-the-knee styles that looks, sorry ladies, very tacky. Great tips!
Great find!
Great choices! Thanks so much for presenting beautiful dress choices with sleeves
You bet! Thanks for watching. 🥰
I like a soft flowing pr. of slacks with a nice top.
I think you will do well with your work in your field I'm 68 and I think you are fantastic you glow with a wonderful experience to not (push) your product good luck kay your husband is a very lucky man x
Beautiful dresses! No weddings until Oct. for me also! The navy floral was my favorite!
Good Morning Kay!
Beautiful choices! Each dress looks just beautiful on you. I think my favorite is the navy floral.
Me too! 💙
Everything looks pretty on you, but that second dress was amazing!!!!! I'm not usually a fan of a front slit or a high/low hemline, but that looks outstanding on you!!
All gorgeous on you
I loved all the dresses but the floral 👗 floral dress is my favorite
Hi Kay, My niece will be getting married Labor Day weekend so this video was perfect! You showed wonderful choices with great accessories, shoes, and handbags. All of these dresses were absolutely lovely and I appreciate how you put together these outfits.
You’re so welcome! 😉
Glad found your channel..I am looking for a summer dress going to a wedding this June its actually on top of the mountains and I'm afraid of heights hahaha but thank you looks amazing on you all the dresses. Love it.
Very nice selection of dresses. You look stunning in the dress you are wearing. Lovely color for you. I really enjoy your channel and focus and content of your channel and blog. Dignity, modesty and tasteful dressing IS in fashion! All the best!
Absolutely. Thanks so much for watching. I’m glad you enjoyed the video. 🥰
These choices are really classy and I love them all 💖 Thank you for sharing your great ideas
Thanks so much for watching, Barbara. 🥰
@ 18:08 is so ME! I'm somewhat 'vertically challenged' and this type of dress is just so beautiful and is so comfortable yet still elegant and can be dressed up with so many options.
~Great content!
first time sub, over and going to attend my neice wedding this month
I am going to a shower today and the wedding in 2 weeks. Thanks you for these ideas
OH! YES I LOVE THE FIRST DRES YOU HAVE SHOWN VERY SIMPLE LOVE IT
Very lovely!
Just stumbled on your channel looking for a dress type to wear to a wedding in Domincan Republic I am attending while on a vision mission trip. This video was great!
Wonderful! Thanks so much for letting me know. 💕
I loved the #3 and #4 dresses on you, Kay. Number 1 was okay, and #2 was interesting, but neither as stunning as 3 & 4! IMHO, of course!
Thanks for sharing Bonnie. 🥰
@@DressedforMyDaywithKayHarms You're welcome. Our paths may cross one day. Live on the sunny side of the Ohio.
May God bless you, your ministry, and your church. My late dad and late husband were both Baptist Church planters long ago.
Thanks for all the great inspration! My favorites are the navy floral and the solid bright pink at the end.
Thank you. Those are my faves too.
That plum color dress looks great on you!
Happy Spring! The second dress is my favorite on you! Enjoy 🌸🌺🌼🌻
Thanks for watching Gail. 🥰
You made all those dresses look beautiful.
Fun ideas...I have a friends formal birthday party coming up. Thank you
You bring simplistic elegance to a whole new level.
Ah, thank you. 🥰
What are your thoughts, Kay, on wearing a black dress with a large, floral pattern down one side? It has a narrow, tan belt and a bateau neckline, with a slim silhouette. I love the dress but the main colour is black and I'm not sure if that is appropriate. The wedding I'd wear it to is next May, outdoors under a tent. Could I wear a light coloured shawl or throw with it (matching the coloured flowers) to make this work? I would welcome your advice. I love your videos and fashion advice. I've found it very helpful. You are so authentic and honest in your delivery.
Thanks Kay. I have shared this with friends. I have appreciated how you share your faith and your great fashion sense.
The dark blue, floral one is the best.
Thank you for watching. 🌷
Thanks for the inspiration Kay. All were great! The navy floral was my favorite, absolutely stunning on you!
Kay -you are lovely inside and out...your style and ideas are so helpful.
I would have been hesitant to choose the long sleeve dress because of the short /long drape...Thought maybe I am too old for that look?
(I’m 65)
If you like it, go for it. Why not. I’m 65 and if I was taller and slimmer I’d certainly wear it. 😃
I’ll admit, I was a little hesitant too. But then I went for it and I’m so glad I did. The short part is right at knee length, so it’s not all that short. And I love the way it makes me feel. In fact, that’s the dress I ended up keep! 😉 Thank you so much for watching Barbara. I’m glad you enjoyed it.
Beautiful. Thank you for all of the added info. You think of a lot of potential questions in your descriptions.
It is difficult to see the jewelry. Maybe consider showing a close up of the jewelery on a black background. I love your style and it would be nice to see that detail too.
Beautiful lady.
Beautiful spirit.
Thank you DJ. Yes, I would have done the close ups. But it’s so much more work for my hubby and we were just working so hard that day as was. But you can see the jewelry up close on the retail websites. Thanks for watching! 🥰
My goodness, all dresses r beautiful, especially the long green dress, that u wore, to ur son’s wedding. A belated congratulation wish.
Thank u, 🙏❤️🌟👍👏✝️💫
Thank you Rachel. It was a lovely day. 💕
Beautiful dresses and looks. I wouldn't have chosen the straw accompaniments on my own, but seeing how well they work, my world has expanded.
Are shrugs out of style?
The dresses are beautiful I love all the dresses and the way you model them is georgeous
Thank you.
Lovely dresses and stunning photography. What a bonus to add dresses at different price points. Thank you for all of this.
Thank you for watching. 🌷
Love it all except the first pair of shoes!
Yeah, they’re definitely not my favorite either. Thanks for watching! 😉
Can you do a video for dressing for a wedding in December? We live in the southeast and it will be outside if the weather permits.
Loved the dresses! And you wear them all well. Lovely!
Thank you for sharing. Is time joining you
Each of those dresses looks stunning on you. 😊
Thank you so much
Hi Kay! How about Mother of the Bride/Groom dresses and gowns? That would be a huge help!
Dear Kay, great selection of pretty dresses.
I loveeeee the dress you were wearing.... gorgeousssss
Thanks⚘
Love the second and third outfit. Thank you for your ideas. God bless you
Thank you for watching. 🥰
Love that fur capelet. So glamorous!
It really is. Thanks !
@@DressedforMyDaywithKayHarms I looked it up and it's sold out😐
Hi Barbara. I’m sorry about that. Check in occasionally because I’ve seen it restocked each year. You could also check in resale shops.
@@DressedforMyDaywithKayHarms thanks Kay
Beautiful dresses but would have liked to see the full length of the dresses on the video.
I like your clothes better than other sites. You have a nice personality
Very nicely done. Beautiful choices. You did a lot of homework to put everything together. Thank you
Thank you for watching. I’m so glad you enjoyed it. 💕
My son is getting married in August at the Swan House in Atlanta. It is a very formal affair. The moms are wearing floor length dresses and I continue to scour the Internet for that perfect dress. However, each of these dresses would be perfect for the rehearsal and rehearsal dinner. The Eliza J dress is gorgeous. I might have to order that one. I loved the embroidered dress but since I have hips, I doubt it would work. Thanks for sharing and I love the idea of a wrap instead of a shrug.
Oh I love the Swan House. How amazing is that!!!
My youngest son is getting married in June in a garden style wedding. I am having a tough time finding a dress. I have one solid navy long dress as a back up. However, I would prefer a midi or maxi which is way more casual. I am not a fan of florials but prefer more contemporary prints so my search continues.
Enjoy the process. I’m sure you’ll find the perfect dress. I have lots more recommendations at the blog post. 😉
The second dress beautiful on you
Hi, Kay
I thought of sharing am idea.
A pretty camisole under the second dress could help with extra coverage
if required.
What a beautiful dress.
Blessings from Tokyo💓🌈
Thank you. And God bless
Sarah💓🌈
What a Beautiful video Kay. My very favorite is the navy flower dress (2nd dress)! I wish I had a wedding to go to but I don’t. And I agree with you on the shrugs for now (I’m sure they will be a thing again in the future). The wraps just look so feminine don’t they. Thank you for this video!
You bet! Thanks so much for watching and sharing your thoughts Holly. 🥰
The dress you said you were going to keep for the wedding looks absolutely beautiful on you 🤗
Thank you Lupe. 🥰
You look so cute, I like the 3rd and 4rth ones!!😊
All are just lovely.
Thank you Melissa. 🥰
You are radiant!! Love it all!
Thanks so much for watching. 🥰
What timing- just got invited yesterday! Thanks for the info.
Kay, So happy Rachel told me about your channel! We have 7 weddings in the next 5 months so this topic has been on my mind. So far, I'm going to stick with a favorite navy lace trumpet dress for the fanciest events. I'm hoping a navy linen dress can be made a bit fancier for the event I'm not sure will be air conditioned in August. I've had great success with open toe hosiery and encourage you to try them again; it requires the correct shoe/sandal to wear them but I agree with covering up the 50+ legs after having 7 children. All the best, Julie Carns
How wonderful to have all those weddings to attend. What fun! I’m glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks so much for letting me know. 😉
I have a wedding coming up in 2 weeks! These dresses are beautiful! Great ideas for accessories! Thanks for sharing! Love the video!
Wonderful! I’m so glad you enjoyed the video. 😊
Thank you Kay❣️I especially like the second floral dress on you❣️🥰💕 Do you think the brown shoes might be a little too casual, unless you were in the mountains ? God bless you❣️🥰🙏🏻💕
Great video--I think this is an area that a lot of people need help with so, thank you so much for all of the advice and ideas!
You’re welcome. 🥰
Would love your ideas for wearing dressy pants to a wedding. Thanks.
I’d just wear something very striking or very feminine up top. You could add some bling with something glittery up top. Or you could go with ruffles or other feminine details. 🥰
New subscriber here! Thank you for this...would you mind doing this for a fall and winter wedding? Many thanks 💕
Absolutely I will. And thanks so much for subscribing. 😊
Thank you so much! Glad I found your channel☺️💕
Yes, please do a fall/winter wedding guide. My son is getting married in December and I am so confused about how to pick shoes.
Thank you, Kay. I am one of the folks who requested this subject for your consideration. Great job! You look amazing in all of the dresses. I’m 65 and not really a floral type of person. I chose a sequin dress for an evening wedding which is in the mail on the way to me. The wedding is indoors. It is long sleeve and a fit and flare style. It sparkles because I feel like I want to sparkle but hopefully not too much. I’ll see when it comes. Thanks for all the other tips about hose and foundations. Excellent!
Wonderful! And don’t be afraid to sparkle! 😉 I do hope the dress works beautifully for you. 🥰
2nd dress looked great on you!
Thank you. My fave!
