RedHeadTexan Posted January 28, 2014 #4501 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Judy, I love your dress! It looks absolutely gorgeous on you. We will be doing the Oasis in November and would love to hear your thoughts on the ship. Lisa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Princessmich Posted January 28, 2014 #4502 Share Posted January 28, 2014 What a great pic! You all look so nice!:) Finally got all my pictures done from our Oasis cruise at the beginning of December. My DH and I along with our DS & DDIL were celebrating birthdays. My sister & her hubby also joined us. This is from the 1st. formal night. I'm wearing a gown that sweet Marie sent to me. Enjoy! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IrishLassie Posted January 28, 2014 #4504 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Thanks, Ladies for the nice compliments. I must admit that I felt very "elegant" in Marie's gown! Lisa, we LOVED Oasis and we actually sailed on her twice, so far! It is a BIG ship but very easy to get around and sometimes you don't realize your on a ship. The adults only pool is great, but so are all the other pools. Make sure you are on the Promenade on the 1st. formal night, it's amazing! I actually did the zipline on the ship, it was scary, but I'm glad I did it. Just make sure you sign all your waivers before you go, even if your not sure you'll be doing any of the activities, saves lots of time! I'm sure you'll love it & be truely amazed at the size of the ship. Enjoy! Hope this helped alittle. :) If you have any other questions, let me know.

Crazymasons Posted January 28, 2014 #4505 Share Posted January 28, 2014 I think I have my wardrobe pretty much set. I know I may pick up a few things before we cruise in March, though. Yes, I know, I have way too much love for Maxi dresses. They are all I wear all summer long here in Texas! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm in the Pink gown which I received from another CC member (Marie). My sister & her DH are in the middle & my DS & DDIL are on the other side.

Rare 1kaper Posted January 28, 2014 #4508 Share Posted January 28, 2014 (edited) I'm in the Pink gown which I received from another CC member (Marie). My sister & her DH are in the middle & my DS & DDIL are on the other side. I thought so but I'm on my phone so avatars are so little I couldn't be sure. (And I guess the fact she is your sister could be the reason too). I love the dress. It fits you so nice and a great color on you. I love the middle one too. Not that your DDILs isnt beautiful too I just can't see as much detail with the black. Mine is the same way. I linked the stock photo because it shows more detail being purple than the photos I have of me in the black dress.

It's always a cue to go out and buy more. I've just discovered maxi dresses in heat are brilliant. Edited January 29, 2014 by Pushka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvscruising2007 Posted January 29, 2014 #4511 Share Posted January 29, 2014 I have also discovered Maxi dresses. I actually have Crazymasons aqua colored dress. I haven't worn it yet because I got it at the end of the season. Isn't great that we have so many choices these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ukie57 Posted January 29, 2014 #4512 Share Posted January 29, 2014 ;) I searched high and low for the perfect dresses to feel elegant and special on our cruise -- black cocktail dress and an off-white gown! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mom4mom Posted January 29, 2014 #4513 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Do you all use maxi dresses for formal nights or just casual? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurie S. Posted January 29, 2014 #4514 Share Posted January 29, 2014 I use them for casual only nights only. However, I do have three floor-length sundresses that could be used on formal nights. Two have patterned sequins and the other is a black-and-white in a nice material that dresses up very nicely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvscruising2007 Posted January 29, 2014 #4515 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Do you all use maxi dresses for formal nights or just casual? My maxis are all somewhat casual so I would wear them on non formal nights. I think it depends on the style, fabric and the colors on whether you can wear it for formal night. Accessories can also make a difference in the overall look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Lois R Posted January 29, 2014 #4516 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Do you all use maxi dresses for formal nights or just casual? I think it depends on the dress. Style, color, etc. Many maxi are more casual but I have one that is black and white and I have worn it on a formal night and felt very comfortable in it....dressed up enough but not "over the top"....it is not what I consider a "formal" but it works well for me:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazymasons Posted January 29, 2014 #4517 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Do you all use maxi dresses for formal nights or just casual? Both! For me it really depends on fabric. My cotton-tee fabric dresses are most definitely for daytime casual! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magandab Posted January 30, 2014 #4520 Share Posted January 30, 2014 I just got this dress on ebay, and am hoping it fits and looks great. Something a little different. It's Papell for Dress Barn, 100% silk. http://i938.photobucket.com/albums/ad230/magandab/papell_zpsea1f473c.jpg Also got this one from the same seller, Ralph Lauren, also silk. Not a cruise dress, I don't think, but I love it! http://i938.photobucket.com/albums/ad230/magandab/RLdress_zps70465d18.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Princessmich Posted January 30, 2014 #4523 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Amy, I really like the handkerchief hem dress! I think you could wear the other dress for casual time on a cruise..why not??:)Hope they work out for you! Michelle...btw I don't know what your doing wrong..we can still click on the link to see the dresses..I'm lucky I can do the basics:) I just got this dress on ebay, and am hoping it fits and looks great.

luvscruising2007 Posted January 30, 2014 #4524 Share Posted January 30, 2014 I had an e-mail this morning from Lane Bryant. They are having an on-line sale of 60% off clearance. So, I had to take a look. I ordered another maxi. Crazymasons- It is another one like you have. I didn't realize until I scrolled through this thread. We must have similar taste.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? Are you clicking on the IMG link along side of your picture on Photobucket? It should say "copy" when you click (sometimes you have to do it several times, not sure why) but you will see the word "copy" then you can just paste into your msg. on here. Hope this helps.
