My younger self would weep tears of joy if she knew Taylor Swift and Selena Gomez are engaged at the same time. On August 29, I nearly cried seeing the longtime friends starting their bridal eras—Swift in "something blue" at a Cincinnati Bearcats football game and Gomez in all-white on her bachelorette trip.
Once her friends-only getaway to Cabo ended, Gomez shared photos from the oceanside fête with her 417 million Instagram followers. As any bride-to-be should, the Rare Beauty founder maintained a white color story all week long, including with an ivory Retrofête mini. The $1,498 Yaeko dress was covered in rows of pearls and sequins, starting at the halter neck to the thigh-length hem. The sequins gave it an opalescent shine, while penny-sized pearls felt classically bridal. Gomez accessorized with a short, embroidered "bride-to-be" Lulus veil: an adorable requirement for any bachelorette party.
