two4me Posted January 31, 2012 #376 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Hi Ladies' date='[/b'] Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. Time to ask for your advice.....:) I'm already debating whether to wear the new red gown or the new black gown for the Sweetheart Ball. I just want to make sure that I have everything picked out for each dress, and then I can always decide at the last minute. If I wear the red dress, should I go with gloves, and if so what color, black or white? After that I need to decide on jewelry...I usually don't wear long earrings, but I just had my hair cut a little shorter than usual....WHAT WAS I THINKING?:eek: Anyway hopefully it will grow a little over the next two weeks, but I'm thinking that I may just need to go and purchase some really gorgeous long earrings.... Open to all your suggestions...:) I did have this dress altered to be a one shouldered dress....I haven't taken any photos yet, so maybe that is something else to consider with the gloves, and jewelry. I don't want to be "overdone"!:D o.k.... can I have this dress for my cruise when you are done with it? lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew's Wife Posted January 31, 2012 #377 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Drews Wife...I have seen your posts regarding the dresses you have ordered from the lady on ebay. How long does it typically take to get the dress once you have ordered it? I am very tempted to order one, but am waiting for her to have a sale. It sounds like you are happy with the quality of the dresses. It usually takes less than two weeks, and I am more than pleased with the quality of the dresses. The lady is always so kind and answers any questions very quickly. I've noticed that her prices are a little higher the last couple of weeks...I would imagine it has to do with the economy there as well as here. Hope you find something that you like. I'll be glad to answer any questions that I can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Li'lImp Posted January 31, 2012 #379 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Drew's Wife, I've been living vicariously through you posts, but finally had to speak up -- your initial idea of white gloves merits consideration! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pinma Posted January 31, 2012 #385 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Tam Tam .... I *love* that dress! I'm starting to buy dresses for our July cruise (weight loss maintenance incentive!). I have this one in royal blue: and ordered these 3 from Penneys (for under $50 total!)... hopefully they will all fit: DH's favorite: My favorite: And so inexpensive I couldn't pass it up I'm still on the hunt for a red dress - cocktail length or longer. (Although I have a more casual red dress that MIGHT not be too big.) We only have 2 formal nights on the cruise but I can 'get away with' dressing up more the other nights, can't I? I'm thinking I won't bother the first night (with bags perhaps not being delivered in time) but after that.... I am looking forward to dressing up!
