Yes, my fiancée was definitely a minority on elegant night wearing a dress shirt and tie. I even saw a man wearing black jeans instead of blue jeans. Guess that is his idea of dressing up or not. Very laid back "dress up" nowadays. You do see a few enjoying themselves looking a little more made up then usual. Every night I wear a dress so on those casual nights, I am the one dressed up. LOL

I was just wondering what people like/think about shoe colors.

 

Do you like the look, or do yourself wear the look of a bright colored shoe with say a black dress, or black and white dress to bring in some "pop" of color? Or do you stay more traditional with a black shoe?

 

Usually I will see a clutch as the "pop" of color, but lately I have been noticing the shoes.

We always send an email as a "text" to a cell phone and it is free.

 

When using WiFi you write an email like normal and then in the "TO" line, you type in the cell phone number plus vtext(dotcom) behind it and it sends it to that cell phone.

 

This way, we aren't being charged the 50 cents for each real text.

Option 2! Two of the best beaches right there. So relaxing.

That is very cute, but I would never have thought is was a dress!

 

I know, when I looked at it I thought it was a skirt too. But nope, its all attached. LOL

Thanks for the info. I didn't even see the Pick your Perk either. LOL

I will keep checking. Its good to know they will adjust the price if it lowers.

 

I am really wanting to go. I don't want to wait till June though, but I have to. :(

I am really interested in booking a cruise on Celebrity for June 2015. I was wondering if they have any times/sales or incentives when you book. EX: lower booking amount due or OBC, drink package, etc...

 

Right now I am seeing no incentive for me to book and also no price discount.

IF I would book now, do they adjust the price when you see it lower and contact them? I know other cruiselines do.

Decided to go not as dressy this cruise. Our big celebration cruise will be for New Years/Eve, so we are going all out for that one.

 

Found this dress, but I bought it in pink. Of course, on clearance oh and with pink heels that were clearance too. LOL

 

21 days!!!

 

260 days!!!

Really had to think about this one.

 

1. Take advantage of the room service. For some reason I never do.

2. Maybe eat lunch in the MDR.

3. Open the book that I always seem to bring but never read.

4. Try to stay less "internet connected"

5. Do all spa things. LOL

I have never been to a formal. Didn't go to high school prom and I only do short cocktail dresses for cruises. Don't know if I have been missing out on anything. LOL

This is my latest. Of course, my body isn't like hers AT ALL. LOL

But I do love the print and the way the suit fits me.

 

I take along this one and about 2 other halter top bikinis.

This website: shopzoey.com. They have a lot of cute flats, and the prices are decent.

 

OMG! Now one of my fav shoe sites. Even their heels and platforms are really cute. But the flats are the best I have seen.

 

Just wish the pictures were better. The background needs to be dark.

 

Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for that info. It looks like a great idea. You did a wonderful job! I may have to give it a shot.

Fun video. So cute.

 

What did you use to video? Your phone or a camera? I am interested in doing this, but do you have to edit the video and put it together or do you just keep videotaping and when you are done with one section and start a new section the next day, does it stay in that order?

Heels for sure. Usually at least about 4" if not 5'-6". I do not wear heels at all around home. Just on cruises. My feet kill, but I figure oh well, I will just sit down and rest while walking around the ship. I have yet to go on a cruise where someone doesn't comment how cute my shoes are or wants them. I usually say, "Oh, you can have them, they kill my feet. LOL

 

I don't even know where to begin to look for lower heels. Don't really see any that I like.

My very first cruise, I booked with a TA. I am sure that I paid wayyyyyyyyyyy more than I should have, I didn't get any special offers, etc... I had to keep going back and forth to her office which wasn't convenient for me.

 

Ever since, I have done it online. I have several places to surf and see what they have to offer and choose the best one for me. I book all my excursions and actually know what there is to do. Unlike the first cruise.

 

In fact, I couldn't even tell you how I would go about finding a TA right now. I don't know any around.

I'm getting ready to order this dress. My fiancee' picked it out. He loves it to death. Hope I can find the right type of heels for it. Ahhhh, a new search now. LOL

Maybe take a nap.

 

Nap is not in my vocabulary. LOL

Thanks for the heads up! I just booked our cruise in May and was waiting for more deposit money for our Dec. cruise. This was perfect! Too bad I book last week for May, I could have done both bookings with the $50pp deposit.

 

I'm a happy cruiser!!

Haha. Thats a good idea. Never thought about it. Definitely going to save some the closer I get to the cruises. Dont want to hang onto them too long.

I only have certain weeks I can take vacation so I know the one week we always cruise in December. So we usually book around Feb. for the Dec cruise.

 

The other weeks, depends on what we are doing. This year I just booked a cruise for beginning of May since we were just talking about it, checked the prices, liked it and booked. LOL

 

The other week, we decided to go to Disney World. Yikes, a land vacation. LOL

 

So, hmmmmmmmmmmm, Im guessing 100 days to 11 months in advance. LOL

[quote name='cb at sea']Anything specific I'm looking for, I can NEVER find! After I don't need it anymore, there will be racks and racks....never fails![/quote]


EXACTLY!!!!

Well, the problem of not finding a "sweater" that started this thread, was resolved. I found a nice thin waist length one in eBay and it came it a ton of colors. I bought a blue one since it would go with most of my dresses. But, I am thinking of ordering some more in different colors since it worked out so well.

Thanks for all your replies, it is interesting to hear whats happening out there. Or not. LOL

I really don't take or need much. I use whats on the ship and of course just need my deodorant. I use the shampoo, soap, toothpaste that is supplied. I wear no makeup and usually don't even need to wear sunscreen as I can sit in the sun for hours and not even get tan. LOL But, of course I bring a 3 oz bottle that gets me through the whole week.

Just this past week.
