Would do the pure white clutch + sparkly cuff + blue outfit and look summery. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/grad-outfits-x-2#post-950016 Thu, 06 Jun 2013 17:08:40 +0000 Transcona Shannon 950016@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok - so the convocation outfit will stay just as shown. I think you're right Zap and I'm going to stick with the Boutique 9 shoes for this.</p> <p>Una - as much as I love the bone/silver sandals, I think they are too casual for the lace dress and a formal event.</p> <p>I'm going to still have a quick peek at my fave consignment store for metallic sandals and if nothing available, will go with my cobalt KS pumps.&nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks for your suggestions! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/grad-outfits-x-2#post-950013 Thu, 06 Jun 2013 17:06:13 +0000 Sara L. 950013@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the blue suede shoes and the patterned clutch. I'm not much of a bag person so I could be completely off-base with the clutch. Your second outfits looks great and I wouldn't change a thing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/grad-outfits-x-2#post-950005 Thu, 06 Jun 2013 16:59:35 +0000 Anonymous 950005@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh darn it! I think I remember now.<br />Love the shoes, they feel a little casual to me though. It might&nbsp;be the front stitching and the heel, but I do have a very off kilter taste in shoes in comparison to you guys. I would prefer the shoes you have in the photo, those are the boutique 9 ones, right? <br />What do you think? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/grad-outfits-x-2#post-950004 Thu, 06 Jun 2013 16:59:14 +0000 catgirl 950004@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Silver/bone with blue lace - why not? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/grad-outfits-x-2#post-949998 Thu, 06 Jun 2013 16:53:22 +0000 Suz 949998@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like either the black shoes or the cobalt and I think I am with Zap in preferring a plain clutch.&nbsp;</p> <p>And the convocation outfit looks perfect!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/grad-outfits-x-2#post-949995 Thu, 06 Jun 2013 16:44:16 +0000 Transcona Shannon 949995@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Zap - I did have a red clutch but it got ruined at Kristen's wedding last year when a drunken lady stepped on it with her wicked stiletto heels and put a hold right though it! I do have a smaller red snakeskin leather clutch that could work though. Here's the silver/bone sandals... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/grad-outfits-x-2#post-949987 Thu, 06 Jun 2013 16:40:09 +0000 Anonymous 949987@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>and I am not sure if I have seen the silver/bone sandals but they sound just like the ticket! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/grad-outfits-x-2#post-949983 Thu, 06 Jun 2013 16:37:41 +0000 Anonymous 949983@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the cobalt blue shoes for the lace dress. Am I dreaming or you had a red clutch? If not, I would prefer the white clutch over the patterned ones.</p> <p>The convocation outfit looks delish. White clutch too.</p> <p>( P.S. I am working on my frock for Lil' Zap's graduation ceremony outfit too ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/grad-outfits-x-2#post-949970 Thu, 06 Jun 2013 16:17:24 +0000 Transcona Shannon 949970@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you to everyone who replied to my thread asking for help on deciding what dress to wear to my son's graduation dinner &amp; dance&nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-for-sons-grad-dinner-dance">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....nner-dance</a>. I've decided to go with the blue lace dress which I love and always feel great in. And yes Angie - I knew you'd pick that one :)</p> <p>After the great shoe/sandal purge of 2013, I don't have a lot in the way of colored dressy sandals to wear so options I have to go with the blue lace are my Enzo Angiolini cut out black patent pointy toe pumps (see pic 1) or&nbsp;my Kate Spade cobalt patent pumps (see pic 2 - actually shown here&nbsp;with the lace dress). My other option is to check out my favorite upscale consignment store and see what they have for metallic strappy sandals, something I don't have. What is your choice?</p> <p>Then I need to look at which clutch to carry - I could go with the cobalt and yellow clutch in pic 1, my white leather clutch, the one I bought last year and haven't even used yet (see pic 3) or also check at the consignment store for something sparkly. Which one? And I guess it depends on what I wear for shoes.</p> <p>For jewelry, I will wear my diamond stud earrings, cocktail ring and a large cuff. I don't wear a necklace with this dress because it catches in the lace.</p> <p>I've also attached pics of what I think I'll wear to the Convocation ceremony. If the A/C is freezing in the church, I can leave the jacket on and if it's warm, I can take the jacket off. I'll use the white leather clutch but am going to switch the shoes to my new silver/bone sandals. Do you think this is ok?</p> <p>Thank you so much for your help ladies </p>
