I was just wondering if I could pull of hose with this. My toes are cold right now in the house! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-wine-tasting-but-dont-know-if-im-working-or-just-attending#post-610538 Wed, 02 May 2012 19:03:08 +0000 Angie 610538@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It works! Hope you will be warm enough. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-wine-tasting-but-dont-know-if-im-working-or-just-attending#post-610518 Wed, 02 May 2012 18:52:58 +0000 Mo 610518@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rae, it doesn't look like I'll be working, beyond maybe grabbing a bottle if they run low or something. Mostly I'll be sipping and smiling I think! My toes should be pretty safe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-wine-tasting-but-dont-know-if-im-working-or-just-attending#post-610512 Wed, 02 May 2012 18:47:39 +0000 rae 610512@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it - not too flashy, still professional with the cover up and and colors. I like it unbuttoned, and that might be more comfy if you do have to work, also. The sandals are great, too, unless you need to protect your toes from falling bottles or food trays? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-wine-tasting-but-dont-know-if-im-working-or-just-attending#post-610498 Wed, 02 May 2012 18:35:17 +0000 Mo 610498@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They aren't the best (still struggling with lighting now that I'm home) but here's the gist of it.<br /> Dress alone, with jacket closed (clutching purse for my life apparently!), jacket open, showing the shoes, and from the back.</p> <p>Oh, and we found out it's a slim chance that I'll be working, but I will be there with my BF, who is working it, so I still want to maintain a not too party! party! look hee hee. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-wine-tasting-but-dont-know-if-im-working-or-just-attending#post-609973 Wed, 02 May 2012 04:11:12 +0000 ManidipaM 609973@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mo, sounds like life is about to get exciting! Congratulations! </p> <p>I too like the black sandals best --- they make the dress look a little less 'decorative party guest' and a little more 'able and willing to help the host(ess)', which should certainly help more. Don't think pale pumps are the most practical in a spill-friendly environment anyway, comfort issues aside (but that's entirely my own prejudices speaking, based on own clumsiness probably). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-wine-tasting-but-dont-know-if-im-working-or-just-attending#post-609783 Wed, 02 May 2012 01:12:37 +0000 Tanya 609783@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another vote for all black. I am sure you will look stunning and looking forward to seeing the whole outfit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-wine-tasting-but-dont-know-if-im-working-or-just-attending#post-609769 Wed, 02 May 2012 01:04:19 +0000 Mo 609769@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>thanks! I have been waiting a month now for the darn course to open lol! Maybe I'll go from no work to 2 jobs in zero to sixty ??? (one can hope!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-wine-tasting-but-dont-know-if-im-working-or-just-attending#post-609760 Wed, 02 May 2012 00:57:50 +0000 Transcona Shannon 609760@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congrats Mo! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-wine-tasting-but-dont-know-if-im-working-or-just-attending#post-609756 Wed, 02 May 2012 00:55:24 +0000 Mo 609756@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Glad you all think this will work out. Jsloane, too cute about the legs lol!

May we see it on? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-wine-tasting-but-dont-know-if-im-working-or-just-attending#post-609710 Wed, 02 May 2012 00:28:18 +0000 Transcona Shannon 609710@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this dress with the jacket and like others, think the black sandal will look better with the outfit. Good luck and have fun! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-wine-tasting-but-dont-know-if-im-working-or-just-attending#post-609674 Tue, 01 May 2012 23:59:45 +0000 Jjsloane 609674@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like your choices and prefer the black shoes. IMO your potential employer will be more impressed with your gorgeous legs in a dress. Not being sexist, but you do have great legs, people in event planning need attractive people to maintain the good vibes and you should use what you have. I would save the nude shoes for a more colorful outfit that requires some neutral grounding. When you get the job you'll get to try them out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-wine-tasting-but-dont-know-if-im-working-or-just-attending#post-609664 Tue, 01 May 2012 23:47:11 +0000 Anonymous 609664@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I hope it goes well, Mo! The employer must have heard of your beauty and wanted you there for a good-looking fill in if he doesn't need you to work the event! Perfect outfit, and those standing shoes are mighty good looking for something comfortable good luck! Let us know how it goes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-wine-tasting-but-dont-know-if-im-working-or-just-attending#post-608972 Tue, 01 May 2012 04:23:06 +0000 christieanne 608972@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you could be on either side of things with the outfit - you will be dressed to impress! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-wine-tasting-but-dont-know-if-im-working-or-just-attending#post-608957 Tue, 01 May 2012 03:57:04 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 608957@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That sounds perfect then, Mo. I like the idea of the dress with the jacket to give a dressy but not too party-ish vibe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-wine-tasting-but-dont-know-if-im-working-or-just-attending#post-608945 Tue, 01 May 2012 03:34:42 +0000 Mo 608945@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, good - looks like the black sandals are good to go. I didn't want to squish my toes into pumps all night :(<br /> Laura, I would rather be overdressed, as this is an introduction to a probable employer (whom my BF already has worked with in the past). My BF is wearing a suit to work it. I wanted to be on the dressy side, but not wear a 'party dress' since I may be behind those tables pouring, not sipping! I want to look a bit like I could mean business Hopefully this could work on either side of the table! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-wine-tasting-but-dont-know-if-im-working-or-just-attending#post-608940 Tue, 01 May 2012 03:28:59 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 608940@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree re the black shoes. Very nice outfit. My only thought was whether it would be too dressy - but you know what the vibe will be. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-wine-tasting-but-dont-know-if-im-working-or-just-attending#post-608933 Tue, 01 May 2012 03:17:39 +0000 Anonymous 608933@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the sandals and think they are nicer for the event. IMO the nude pump looks more businessy. Anyway, I think you'll look perfect and I prefer the dress to the awaited slacks. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-wine-tasting-but-dont-know-if-im-working-or-just-attending#post-608931 Tue, 01 May 2012 03:17:00 +0000 Amy 608931@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh, fancee :)</p> <p>I LOVE that dress and the jacket. I probably would be more tempted by the black shoes than the nude ones, personally. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-wine-tasting-but-dont-know-if-im-working-or-just-attending#post-608924 Tue, 01 May 2012 03:07:01 +0000 Mo 608924@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So my BF tells me tonight they need fill in people for the wine event he is working Wednesday night. But, I might be working it, as well as being a stand in to fill the room. Bottom line, I *will* eventually be doing events for these folks this year at some point, so I'd like to hit the right note! My first thought was - too bad my Gap slacks won't be here yet - darn.<br /> They used the word formal, but that is relative in Tahoe, I think. How's this look for a possiblity? (I think the nude shoes would be dressier, but less comfortable if I'm working and standing for 3 hours, the black sandals are obviously less dressy, but can easily be standing shoes without hurting) </p> <p>Here is a prior year's event. <a href="http://heavenlyfoundationteam.org/Grapes___Gates.html" rel="nofollow">http://heavenlyfoundationteam......Gates.html</a></p> <p>EDIT: OOH, just realized maybe Lyn*'s LBD will arrive in my mailbox by then! </p>
