Picking The Perfect Birthday Outfit

What you wear says a lot about you!

POSTED BY JOSEPHINE ALLEN

My birthday's coming up at the start of September, which got me thinking about the ingredients for a perfect birthday outfit. I like to go with a theme, personally.

 

 

For the Barbie summer of 2023, I had a Barbie-themed birthday party and got all of my guests to wear pink. I wore a pink glittery minidress with white gloves, and I felt truly fabulous. I feel like I've been chasing the high of that birthday outfit for a while now, because not only was it on-theme, but it felt very me.

I went to a friend's birthday party not long ago, and the theme was classy. She wore a black-and-white puffball minidress, and even though it was pretty simple, she stole the show. This friend has a minimalist style, so again, it felt like a perfect representation of her.

Since realizing that the perfect birthday dress is one that matches your signature look, I've been picking up on influencers doing it too. Sarah Magusara often rocks colorful, beachy looks, and her recent birthday dress was no exception.

Here are my Fizzypicks for finding a birthday look that feels totally you.
