Welcome, Lisa!

Can you tell us something about the event - where it is, what type of party? And what is your preferred style?

Lisa, welcome. You may not be able to post outfits yet, have to get a few posts under your belt first which is easy but takes a tiny bit of time. In the meantime, what kind of dressiness factor is involved, and can you post links to any inspirations?

Hmm. A pub might be casual....but champagne bar and nightclub sounds dressy!

If it were me, I would probably wear a new dress. After all, you don't turn 50 every day! Or I might get a fantastic pantsuit -- not a business-like one, but something festive and fun. It really does depend on your preferred look.

Hi
I was thinking a dress too.
I am going shopping tomorrow with a friend so hopefully will find something.

I am having real problems at the moment knowing what I look and feel good in but I expect most women go through this at some stage in their lives.

Hope you are having a good day.

Having turned 50 myself, I say the most important thing about this outfit is that YOU feel great in it. The special nature of the event calls for something memorable that maybe you've never tried before. But ONLY if you feel a little tingle of excitement when you put it on and look at yourself in the mirror.

I know those sound like intangible values, but I think you'll know it when you see it. Might be a dress,, might be a pants-jacket-tunic-top combo, might be an exciting pair of shoes with a more subdued garment...not knowing your taste, your community, or your body shape, it's hard to be totally specific. Most of all -- have FUN! That is Angie's mantra and the guiding principle of YLF.

Its your party and you're the Belle of the Ball so go for it!

I had a recent celebration of the New Thirty. I donned a super colorful tea length scarf dress with sandals (it was in HI). Stunning and so not Looking Too Old. You gotta stand out from your pretty girlfriends and shine.
