A birthday outfit only has one job: you want to look at the photos later and be happy. Emily leans brighter and shorter than usual here — white and cream for the classic birthday-dinner look, or one big colour if that's more you. Look for a piece with detail at the neckline or the shoulder, since most of the photos will be from the waist up. Comfortable shoes are non-negotiable when the night runs long. The picks range from a real splurge dress to a $50 option that photographs just as well.
Across her birthday edits, the stores she pulls from most are Target and Shopbop — so if you're only going to check one place, start there.
My look to go to dinner in Brooklyn for my husbands 40th birthday
My look to go to dinner in Brooklyn for my husbands 40th birthday! Been loving these jeans and these ballet flats! I recommend true to size in the jeans and size up 1/2 size in ballet flat! Can pretty much pair this bottom half of a look back to anything in your closet! #LTKmomlife #LTKgrwm #LTKSeasonal

Birthday questions, answered
- What should I wear for my birthday dinner?
- A white or cream dress is the most-requested look in Emily's edits, with detail at the neckline for the photos.
- Do I need a new dress?
- No — she restyles the same pieces constantly. A new shoe or bag with a dress you own does most of the work.
- Where do the birthday dresses come from?
- Revolve, Shopbop and Red Dress cover almost all of them.
