If it is a sit-down dinner, what can be seen above the table...smile, hair, makeup, jewelry, top, jacket...will be noticed much more than your bottom half. While black is not the most festive of holiday colors, it is safe. Other women will be wearing black. I can guarantee it, especially black dress or pants with a sparkly or shiny top or jacket, although these ladies may be older than you are. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-this-good-for-a-fancy-holiday-event-at-a-banquet-hall#post-1414636 Tue, 23 Dec 2014 01:51:44 +0000 unfrumped 1414636@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It can be good to know the options.</p> <p> A lot of times I've not had too many choices for an upcoming event and not time to shop, so it didn't help me to hear lots of suggestions for the "ideal outfit".&nbsp; " The dressy capsule" can be hard to maintain since for me at least I don't get enough wear from it.</p> <p>So,from &nbsp;just your description of the event I'd wear something more elegant and dressy if I <u>could</u>. But if doing SYC, then maybe you could identify some options you already have or whether you want to shop for something for the event. Then issues on which dress or shoes is the best of the bunch, or&nbsp; how to dress something up&nbsp;, how to get the most&nbsp;bang for your buck or what can be achieved with minimal stress, &nbsp;can be fun to discuss. I know I've been there! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-this-good-for-a-fancy-holiday-event-at-a-banquet-hall#post-1414602 Tue, 23 Dec 2014 01:14:56 +0000 Kristin L 1414602@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it could be a touch dressier as well. Would you be willing to try a dressier shoe? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-this-good-for-a-fancy-holiday-event-at-a-banquet-hall#post-1414593 Tue, 23 Dec 2014 01:11:44 +0000 Deborah 1414593@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A banquet ball does suggest something dressier to me:)&nbsp; But you know the environment better.&nbsp; The dress looks more of a day dress to me, if you know what I mean, and I think something in a dressier fabrication might be better:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-this-good-for-a-fancy-holiday-event-at-a-banquet-hall#post-1414591 Tue, 23 Dec 2014 01:10:35 +0000 unfrumped 1414591@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Agree a dressy pump would be better. <br />If the dress is sweater-y I might even stick with plain sheer dark hose and not the large pattern, for more sleekness. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-this-good-for-a-fancy-holiday-event-at-a-banquet-hall#post-1414578 Tue, 23 Dec 2014 00:38:42 +0000 TraceyLiz65 1414578@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A dressier shoe would take this up a notch. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-this-good-for-a-fancy-holiday-event-at-a-banquet-hall#post-1414574 Tue, 23 Dec 2014 00:20:27 +0000 Peri 1414574@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It reads casual to me, sorry! Could you try it with something besides the boots? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-this-good-for-a-fancy-holiday-event-at-a-banquet-hall#post-1414573 Tue, 23 Dec 2014 00:14:47 +0000 Laura 1414573@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Is this good for a fancy holiday event at a banquet hall?</p>
