Sal’s virtual party!!

I call this ‘my Love Boat Dress.’ More dinner gown than gala ball gown, but I think it does for anything in California. It’s hard to tell, but it’s sparkly at the neckline and shoulders. I’m thinking I want a more disco necklace for it…

…All right! Let’s find a table to dance on and a lampshade

Yes! You look ready to celebrate. The colour and shape both look fantastic on you. I like the sparkly detail around the straps. A big "disco" necklace is a great idea. Or if you wear earrings, big chandelier earrings and no necklace would also be killer.

Lovely colour! Is that teal or petrol blue? I have a thrifted jacket that I've been considering donating because I don't have anything to wear it with, but it would go beautifully with your dress - maybe I should wear it to Sal's party & you can virtually borrow it if it gets chilly

PS - That square neckline & jewels look lovely on you too!

Meet me on the Lido deck, Jenni!

I love being on team teal! I’ve discovered something tho in this year’s quest for it: I like my teal in something fancy. A teal t-shirt does not satisfy me at all. Lol. Need more virtual parties!

…. of course I was calling it teal and I think it is, but Petrol Blue gives me pause… it’s not petrol blue but it’s quite blue now that I think about it.

… Grecian is a word I like also

I love that blue whatever it is called and the dress has an elegant simplicity to it. A great party outfit.

I need more champagne before I dance on the table. A good fried and her husband danced on the table at her daughter’s wedding. She was the last of five daughters to get married so I would be on a table dancing too.

Perfect dress on you, I love that colour it sits between teal and turquoise.

@rachylou I think you're right - in my mind teal is slightly more green, but that might just be because I prefer that shade haha. Maybe a 'kingfisher blue' sort of teal is more apt? Doesn't matter because it's gorgeous either way!

Shall envy your dancing & ability to find lovely teal pieces from all the way over here, in my bright orange blazer, lol

Lovely Rachy- and I adored the Love Boat. I think you need a fruity cocktail to drink with this - a Mai Tai or Tequila Sunrise…. Along with a seat at the Captains Table.

The dress suits you very well - thanks for coming!! Very appropriate - in fact I want it.

Ohhh…may I have a tequila sunrise too? That was the first cocktail I ever had. I think I was about 20 and was invited to the Auckland University Engineering Ball by a date and he bought it for me. Other people were drinking “brown cow”- kahlua and milk I think. We had a good night.

Of course Jenni - at the virtual party you can mix drinks as much as you like. That’s the beauty of it!!

Love it!! Love boat dress, lol! Love your sense of humor too. You look fantastic! I am really into these waist surrendering (? Is that the right word?) Silhouettes my self. You are the perfect example here of how sensual, gorgeous and feminine it can look, without being body-con or hugging.

I'm used to you with a whole lot going on and here you are doing (relative) simplicity in such an impactful way! You're lovely and lively in this, too!
