Perfect for a VIP crowd of legal professionals, right? How were the others dressed?</p> <p>ETA -- never mind. There are pros and cons to reading everyone else's comments first, aren't there. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-630-red-white-and-blue-at-the-vip-mixer#post-658620 Sun, 01 Jul 2012 06:27:14 +0000 MsMary 658620@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, ladies! I was surprised to see that many of the other ladies were wearing what I would consider to be more cocktail-type dresses, even though the event was from 4 to 8 p.m. and it was full daylight the whole time. That was probably the plurality, with the rest split between summer day dresses and full-on business casual or even business formal pants and skirt ensembles. However I still felt good in my outfit and like I wasn't trying too hard, you know? So I'll put it in the "win" column! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-630-red-white-and-blue-at-the-vip-mixer#post-658611 Sun, 01 Jul 2012 06:02:42 +0000 ManidipaM 658611@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Stunning in simplicity, fun with those pops of colour, and a touch of retro in the silhouette. MaryK, you look wonderful! And I bet you stood out with your whimsical accessories. (I'm curious too about what the other ladies wore...) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-630-red-white-and-blue-at-the-vip-mixer#post-658592 Sun, 01 Jul 2012 05:36:02 +0000 Deborah 658592@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Perfect outfit Mary! It just proves that real style is. It about how much you spend, it's about how well you put things together. You look a million bucks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-630-red-white-and-blue-at-the-vip-mixer#post-658567 Sun, 01 Jul 2012 04:52:08 +0000 Jonesy 658567@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is such a perfect dress for the occasion!

Lots of judges, lawyers, and elected officials. They were kind enough to feature a photo of last year's event on the invitation, and it was plainly "chic summer dresses" for the ladies.</p> <p>I decided that nothing could be more appropriate for an event on a hot day than my vintage 60s sleeveless button-front dress with the navy and white polka dot top and white bottom. Believe it or not in this VIP crowd, all my accessories were super cheap, but I think it worked anyway. What do you think?</p> <p>Navy and white dress: Vintage<br /> Red belt: thrifted<br /> Cobalt faux leather "snakeskin" bag: Veronica M<br /> Multicolored cork-soled platform sandals: Payless<br /> Multicolored chunky plastic bracelet: YLF swap<br /> Turquoise and silver earrings: consignment </p>
