Simple yet sophisticated.</p><h2>Blazer and trousers</h2><p><a data-pin-do="embedPin" data-pin-width="medium" href="https://uk.pinterest.com/pin/178244097731430188/"></a></p><p>Not a traditional choice for wedding guests, but a perfect alternative for those who don't feel like revealing too much skin or looking too girly. The key to pulling off a trouser suit at a wedding is making sure that heels are more cocktail hour than office wear. We especially love this look when teamed with a silk blouse underneath.</p><h2>Pencil skirt</h2><p><a data-pin-do="embedPin" data-pin-width="large" href="https://uk.pinterest.com/pin/384283780678984123/"></a></p><p>An easy alternative to the dress, a <a href="http://direct.asda.com/george/womens/skirts/tile-print-pencil-skirt/G005400119,default,pd.html?utm_source=goodliving&utm_medium=website&utm_campaign=style-fashion-tips-wedding-guest-outfits" target="_blank">pencil skirt</a> teamed with a silk top or fitted knit will hit just the right style note for a spring wedding.
