You want to feel like yourself even though you are wearing special clothing for your fancy occasion.</p> <p>I hope this helps? &nbsp;I don't think there's any one answer to the questions you're asking... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-dressing-up#post-1645333 Sat, 16 Apr 2016 11:14:21 +0000 Anonymous 1645333@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm big on adhering to dress codes and honoring the preferred level of dressiness that others prefer when hosting special events. Some have formal weddings, for example, while others have informal weddings. So my answer is always that it depends. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-dressing-up#post-1645309 Sat, 16 Apr 2016 07:06:18 +0000 rachylou 1645309@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm a proponent of full length gowns for evening occasions </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-dressing-up#post-1645306 Sat, 16 Apr 2016 06:09:34 +0000 Andrea Ross 1645306@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was talking about dressing up for a fancy &nbsp;occasion.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-dressing-up#post-1644905 Fri, 15 Apr 2016 14:28:07 +0000 Angie 1644905@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Do you mean dressing up for a fancy occasion, or dressing for daily life? I'm not sure I understand the question, but would like to. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-dressing-up#post-1644858 Fri, 15 Apr 2016 13:07:38 +0000 Andrea Ross 1644858@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What do you think one should dress like?
