I have a tremendous amount of "cruise dresses" that I am going to get rid of. ALL heavily beaded (they travel well, even though they are heavy). Size 6-10, depending on the manufacturer.

 

Most are reds, oranges, silvers. I have one black and silver that I absolutely love but the shoulders have these huge shoulder pads to support the material and I have never taken the time to get them out. Looks kind of dated with the huge shoulder pads. There is a white, iredescent that is completely covered in pearl colored sequins which I got in Bali from a missionary who works with ladies who do beading.

 

These are fancy, fancy gowns. But VERY easy to wear-just put on the underwear and slip on the dress. MOST have sleeves-most have LONG sleeves. Anyone interested??? If so, either email or ask me to post pictures.

 

If you have anything left in a 10, I would be very interested.

I sent you an email. I guess you didn't get it. Send me your address to LParente@aol.com. I'll mail it out ASAP. I'll let you know how much postage was. Enjoy!!!

 

Thanks so much...package received and it appears to have survived the journey to the GREAT WHITE NORTH.

 

Stay warm and Happy Cruising...

Wow, I didn't know this was going on. I've got plenty of dresses that do not fit me anymore that I would love to give to someone for good use.

I'll see what pictures I have and post them here.

 

Most are mediums, probably junior sizes. I have a green halter with medium size brown dots (I don't have a picture of yet), a red and white flowery strapless with crinline on the bottom, black glittery halter (I'll need to resize since CC won't let me upload it), an all brown halter with U-hook at the V section (I'll need to take a picture of this as well) and a brown and white-cream color block spaghetti strap.

 

If anyone is interested you can email me at kdcrenshaw2005 at yahoo dot com and please put your CC Name and that your from CC so I know it isn't junk/spam.

 

I also have a suit that my husband can no longer fit into. The pants are a 36-38W x 32L I believe and the jacket is a 42R.

Hey everyone I need some fashion help!!! We are coming to New Orleans a couple days prior to cruising and plan to take in some Mardi Gras festivities...Looking for something "fun" to wear. I'm a 52 y/o, size 12. Any suggestions..Still look good in short skirts and heels!

 

Oh - don't wear any shoes you want to keep :)

If the parade is during the day - it won't be too bad, but the streets are old, and in some places buckled - you don't want to be wearing heels. Also - people get VERY excited about the beads - you will easily be knocked over - you need stable shoes :)

If the parade is at night, and if you're going to be viewing it near the French Quarter or in the French Quarter - take a pair of cruddy tennis shoes and throw them away when you get back to the hotel. I kid you not - small rivers of beer, vomit, and other bodily fluids run through the gutters - mostly on Bourbon Street, but you can run in to it in other places as well. Also - short skirt is a bad idea. People get, um,,,, very close behind you during a parade.....

Jeans, tennis shoes, and a really neat shirt :) Find a fun hat, buy some beads, paint your face, wear a Carnival mask - but stay away from heels and short skirts.

Hi greatam,I've been busy and have not been around the boards in weeks, so I might be too late. Anyway, the dresses sound beautiful. My measurements are 36-38 DD, bigger at the top than the bottom where I wear a size 6-8 in pants or skirts. If you have anything left and around my size I would be interested. I'll try to e mail you,but I'm not sure I know how:eek: I cruise in 3 weeks. Thank you

I've tired but this email address (G2liv0702@yahoo.com) comes back as invalid! :(

 

Hi hon2u

 

I am so sorry; I have not been here quite awhile. On 12-03-2010, I had an accitdent that land me in the hospital with shattered heels and compression fracture L1. I was in the wheelchair for three months, I am now able walk with boots. I am hoping with physical therapy, I will be able to walk without the boots very soon.

 

Anyway, I still have the dress if want it.

 

My email is g2liv0702@yahoo.com ( with low g )

 

Marie

 

PS. We had to cancel our 2011 world cruise on Qeen Mary 2

Hi Ladies;

Marie

 

g2liv0702@yahoo.com

 

OMG :eek: Marie...I checked the link to your photo gallery and checked out your photos.

 

The pain you must have endured over the past few months in unbelieveable. Did you fall or was it a MVC?

 

Wishing you all the best on your recovery and keep looking forward to the day that you will RE BOOK the World Cruise. It will be there waiting for you when you are up and around again!:)
