I like the sound of your previous year's outfits too. I always try to stay festive but fairly conservative for my office holiday parties. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/advice-please-party-outfit#post-457551 Thu, 03 Nov 2011 02:03:54 +0000 stringy 457551@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this idea. I'd stick with traditional tux colours: black pants and jacket, white blouse. Then choose fabrications and styles which are feminine and/or glam. </p> <p>Maybe a jet black necklace to mimic the vibe of a tie? Killer heels, for sure! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/advice-please-party-outfit#post-457187 Wed, 02 Nov 2011 18:39:01 +0000 Transcona Shannon 457187@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh thanks all - it's always a relief to know you're not heading in a completely wrong direction! Now to find the pieces...</p> <p>Suz - that's what I was thinking too in terms of wearing the pieces separately later on. This gives me more options than a dress, and I agree Lynne - it seems like it would be a wardrobe classic.</p> <p>So now here are more questions - do I go with color for the top or stick with classic black or white? Do I go with a black jacket with black pants, or a white jacket with black pants? And now Una's got me thinking about a velvet jacket.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/advice-please-party-outfit#post-457179 Wed, 02 Nov 2011 18:29:31 +0000 HelenInCanada 457179@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>...with killer shoes and statement jewellery, this outfit sounds good to me! Post a pic if you can! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/advice-please-party-outfit#post-457175 Wed, 02 Nov 2011 18:27:50 +0000 catgirl 457175@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That sounds fab. I have a vintage velvet double-breasted jacket that I love wearing with pants in place of a dress... Pictures please! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/advice-please-party-outfit#post-457172 Wed, 02 Nov 2011 18:27:27 +0000 chewyspaghetti 457172@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You can't go wrong with a sophisticated tux outfit. I think a sequined top with a tux jacket and trousers, a nice heel and metallic accents sounds great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/advice-please-party-outfit#post-457169 Wed, 02 Nov 2011 18:25:24 +0000 Suz 457169@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shannon, I love the idea of a dressy tux for you, especially if you have some wonderful funky footwear to go with it. It really would be a wardrobe classic and you could wear the jacket and pants separately later as well. I don't really know a good source for this kind of look, though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/advice-please-party-outfit#post-457096 Wed, 02 Nov 2011 17:06:24 +0000 Transcona Shannon 457096@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yeah, I'm thinking a jumpsuit+drinks+dinner=disaster! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/advice-please-party-outfit#post-457064 Wed, 02 Nov 2011 16:17:31 +0000 DragonflyJane 457064@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That sounds lovely &amp; really sophisticated. I'm also thinking about Christmas party wear - I was thinking maybe going down the vintage route but now you've inspired me. I'm now thinking wide legged trousers with dressy blouse &amp; fitted tux style jacket. Jumpsuits (all-in-one top &amp; bottoms) seem to be big this season over here but I'm wondering about the practicalities, especially after a couple of drinks?!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/advice-please-party-outfit#post-457056 Wed, 02 Nov 2011 16:10:20 +0000 Lynne 457056@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh, Shannon, a sequined tank with tuxedo pants sounds wonderful! A feminine tuxedo should be a good wardrobe classic, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/advice-please-party-outfit#post-457049 Wed, 02 Nov 2011 16:05:24 +0000 Transcona Shannon 457049@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>On December 10th, the Women's Hospital I work for will be holding it's annual Christmas Dinner &amp; Dance fundraiser. It's a fabulous event and each year I've worn a fairly typical "party dress" (black, silver, black/white combo, etc.). I'd like to wear something different this year - something unique. I've been thinking about tuxedo pants with a dresssy blouse or sequined tank &amp; jacket...</p> <p>I would love to hear your suggestions and ideas - thanks! </p>
