I love the rich navy and the sweater and black pumps are perfect with it. You look incredible, and just as good as you looked in your own mind, I'm sure. Sometimes a photograph just can't capture all the details and sparkle of your outfit and personality. I'm so happy that you had a wonderful time dancing the night away. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---home-from-the-xmas-party#post-1107832 Sun, 08 Dec 2013 17:32:33 +0000 bella 1107832@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>you look very elegant! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---home-from-the-xmas-party#post-1107814 Sun, 08 Dec 2013 17:09:43 +0000 viva 1107814@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not to just echo the crowd here, but you look beautiful (I guess you can never hear that too many times). That cardigan is the perfect accessory, even if it was just draped over your chair while you danced the night away! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---home-from-the-xmas-party#post-1107813 Sun, 08 Dec 2013 17:07:44 +0000 Sveta 1107813@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You looked radiant and beautiful, Dianthus. I was preferring Okalas before but seeing the whole outfit I think that black pumps were much better choice.<br />I </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---home-from-the-xmas-party#post-1107812 Sun, 08 Dec 2013 17:04:26 +0000 shiny 1107812@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful. Lovely dress. I do like those Okalas a lot but if they're sitting shoes, then I'm glad you wore the dancing shoes instead!&nbsp;</p> <p>Where I live it does seem like black is back, then again, it never left (Boston=conservative).&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---home-from-the-xmas-party#post-1107800 Sun, 08 Dec 2013 16:47:31 +0000 Mary Beth (formerly LBD) 1107800@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look like a bombshell! &nbsp; I like the shoes you wore to the party, better than the Okalas - I think the Okalas would have distracted from that beautiful sweater </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---home-from-the-xmas-party#post-1107756 Sun, 08 Dec 2013 16:08:57 +0000 marianna 1107756@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh so pretty! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---home-from-the-xmas-party#post-1107728 Sun, 08 Dec 2013 15:19:10 +0000 minimalist 1107728@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You know, since you were dancing and having fun, I bet you *did* look even better IRL than we can see in your fab 2-dimensional photos. Sounds like you had a wonderful time. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---home-from-the-xmas-party#post-1107727 Sun, 08 Dec 2013 15:09:01 +0000 Janet 1107727@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMG, gorgeous.

Wow. Absolutely stunning. And isn't it funny - we worried you might be cold but there you were, all warm from dancing! Fabulous. I love the cardigan - do you remember what it is, if it is still available? Looks like such a useful piece.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---home-from-the-xmas-party#post-1107717 Sun, 08 Dec 2013 14:49:37 +0000 Shirley 1107717@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So elegant. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---home-from-the-xmas-party#post-1107716 Sun, 08 Dec 2013 14:47:34 +0000 Karie 1107716@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the sparkly cardi!

Glad that didn't need it and could fully show-off the dress. Sounds like a great evening! I love it when people enjoy dancing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---home-from-the-xmas-party#post-1107644 Sun, 08 Dec 2013 07:12:07 +0000 Deborah 1107644@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Dianthus, if you looked any better than you do in these photos all the women in the room would have turned green with envy! You look absolutely gorgeous. I love your dress choice and the black shoes were the right choice. This reminds me of the outfit you wore to a casual wedding no so long ago and I thought that was beautiful also. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---home-from-the-xmas-party#post-1107628 Sun, 08 Dec 2013 06:41:37 +0000 Dee 1107628@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The cut of that dress is perfect on you.

I am sure there was a plonk pile at the venue :). You look gorgeous! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---home-from-the-xmas-party#post-1107625 Sun, 08 Dec 2013 06:33:11 +0000 rae 1107625@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it! You look very fab, and I bet all that dancing helped keep everyone warm. The sparkly cardy is wonderful, though! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---home-from-the-xmas-party#post-1107622 Sun, 08 Dec 2013 06:30:40 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 1107622@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks to everyone for the advice on the accessories for the Xmas party.&nbsp; I ended up going with the black shoes, earrings and a bracelet.&nbsp; I took a pic of the okalas but went with the SWs because they felt a bit more comfortable and were tested for dancing.&nbsp; Its a good thing because the music started shortly after dinner and within a minute the dance floor was crowded.&nbsp; We spent about 2/3 of the evening dancing and had a great time.</p> <p>I was a bit surprised by how many of the women were wearing black with some type of beading or sparkle and navy.&nbsp; The last few years I've been seeing more red and purples.&nbsp; It ended up being very warm in the room and I took my sweater off shortly after we started dancing.</p> <p>Its funny but I thought I looked better than I do in the pics.&nbsp; </p>
