This dress looks perfect for the afternoon at the theater! Comfortable, fresh and stylish, and cool! I agree a long gold pendant would be a good match.

I think the dress is perfect for afternoon theatre and the color suits you perfectly. I agree that the pendant is the perfect accessory and you won't need the earrings. Have fun!

Have fun! mrseccentric on "Will this do for an afternoon at the theatre?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/will-this-do-for-an-afternoon-at-the-theatre#post-384279 Thu, 14 Jul 2011 15:45:02 +0000 mrseccentric 384279@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Beautiful AND practical - the holy grail of style you look great, i would think the pearl necklace is dressy enough without earrings. the gold pendant would like great as well, and possibly less formal at a matinee and on the bus (who knows why that would occur to me, for heaven's sake - but it did!). have a great time, those little getaways are so much fun! steph Ginny on "Will this do for an afternoon at the theatre?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/will-this-do-for-an-afternoon-at-the-theatre#post-384278 Thu, 14 Jul 2011 15:44:06 +0000 Ginny 384278@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I say yes too. the dress looks great for the ride and the color is good on you!!!

I think the pendant will make it dressy enough to leave off the earrings.

The dress drapes lovely on you and looks forgiving for wrinkles. Have a great time!

This dress would be lovely for the theatre and your accessory choice sounds lovely. Do you needstud earrings - I think it depends on the pendant. If the pendant is small and delicate stud earrings will go well with it; for a more of a statement pendant I would skip the earrings. Have lovely time at your mini-vacation!

The gold pendant rather than the pearls will look and feel cooler in the heat. This sounds like such fun. cheryle (Dianthus) on "Will this do for an afternoon at the theatre?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/will-this-do-for-an-afternoon-at-the-theatre#post-384154 Thu, 14 Jul 2011 12:30:21 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 384154@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Yes. It works and the color is beautiful on you.

I like the idea of a gold pendant versus the pearls, but either would work. I love musicals! Have a fun vacation!

I'm jealous! I love the turquoise dress you've shown. Perfect for the theater - and comfy for a long period of sitting and riding. It does not need earrings to dress it up. In fact, I would try to keep it as casual as possible. In my neck of the woods, at least, people don't dress up for matinees as much as they do for evening performances. Erin on "Will this do for an afternoon at the theatre?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/will-this-do-for-an-afternoon-at-the-theatre#post-384141 Thu, 14 Jul 2011 11:21:20 +0000 Erin 384141@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I think that it will work. Especially since you have a hot bus ride first. It looks like it will be very comfortable. It sounds like you ate about to have a pretty great trip so have some fun. Michelle on "Will this do for an afternoon at the theatre?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/will-this-do-for-an-afternoon-at-the-theatre#post-384139 Thu, 14 Jul 2011 11:11:03 +0000 Michelle 384139@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Corey and I are off for a highly anticipated mini vacation! A town about an hour and a half from here hosts a major theatre festival every summer, and that town happens to be a scenic spot in the middle of my province's extensive wine-producing region. We're travelling by bus this morning, then going almost immediately to see a musical this afternoon. Dinner will be a wine pairing five-course meal at one of the local wineries, and tomorrow will just be a casual day of relaxing and exploring. I'm all set for the dinner tonight (my cotton fit and flare dress) and tomorrow (denim clams and either my green twist top or pink sleeveless wrap top, depending on the weather). My neutral snake sandals and white coach bag will be the only items of their kind that I'll bring...but I just wanted to make sure you you agreed with the rationale for my theatre outfit. I needed something that wouldn't wrinkle from the bus but that would still be theatre-appropriate, since we may not be able to access our hotel room before the play. It's also quite hot here at the moment, so that's a factor for this temperature-sensitive gal. Think this dress, worn with the bag, sandals and a gold pendant, will look ok at a matinee performance? Does it need pearl and gold stud earrings to dress it up or will this do? I'll try to get Corey to take pics of the other outfits in action, so you get less boring shots.
