My Dresses for Formal Nights

[HstTeacher]

I'll wear this dress on the first formal night, with silver shoes with rhinestones on them:

 

The second formal night, I'm wearing this dress:

 

With these shoes:

 

With a black lace shawl.

 

What do you all think?

[Ehpride]

Looks good to me!

[ryzmom]

Both are PERFECT!!! Great choices!

Hey I have the 1st dress in red! I am wearing it in a wedding at the end of this summer. I think the bride will have a fit if I wear it before the wedding and spill something on it. (I cruise in March) Oh well. Wear it proud for me!

That'll just give you an excuse to book another cruise :D

[caviargal]

They are both very pretty but I love the first one! I am sucker for red.

 

Enjoy!

I wear red formals a lot as well. They look great. I would pass on a shawl unless you see as a must. I think it takes away from a strapless dress too much.

Lookin' good, you're set for the cruise!

[legalmom]

Great choice. You will feel pretty special. Have a great time

[texancruzer]

I think you will look stunning.

 

tip: keep the jewelry to a minimum: the dresses say it all !

Both dresses are beautiful but I especially like the cream dress with the black. Can you tell me where you found it?

[coka]

Both dresses are wonderful! My favorite is the second one! Have a glorious time in them!

Both dresses are gorgeous! But the second one would be favorite for me if the colors were flip flop...I like black to be the main color for me. Your gonna look hot!

[sunprincess]

Very pretty - Enjoy your cruise :)

The dress is from White House/ Black Market. They have a lot of cute dresses there!!

[hammy1]

Thanks for the info. . . I would have never thought to look at that store. The dresses are really cute!

[MrsPete]

The first dress is GORGEOUS! I love the color, the style, everything. I notice that the model's not wearing any jewlery -- I think that's perfect for this dress. The color is the stand-out item; jewelry would just detract.

 

I think the second one's a bit plain.

[Happy ks]

Classic and understated. I'm not one who likes a lot of beads and sequins, I prefer a little more plain, like these examples. I think your own beauty should show through, too much sparkly takes away from the person themselves.

 

For jewelry I'd do a drop style earring with the red, no necklace, the second a simple diamond necklace and earrings.

 

Make sure you wear a well fitted strapless bra and take the dresses to a tailor or dressmaker to have the bodice fitted to you as well. It's so unattractive to watch a woman adjusting her clothes all night.

 

You have very good taste!

[suzeyQ]

Very nice!

All the dresses I've viewed on here are absolutely gorgeous....and a bit nicer than the one I have. My BF and I promised my parents that we would dress up one evening. This is the only dress I have, is it ok?

 

Thanks,

Pamela

Very pretty. I'd dress it up with some strappy sandals and bling and do something special with your hair.

[Nliedel]

Ahh perfection. I love formal night. I love it when people dress and look their best. Everyone just smile so much more.

[MrsPete]

I agree. The plain hair and corporate shoes don't show this dress to its best advantage. It'd be immeasurably nicer with silver strappy sandals, a nice necklace, and an up-do hairstyle. Very nice color -- it'll stand out!

[SV-650-Girl]

Thanks so much for the advice. I better get to work on looking for some shoes and jewelry!
