drfun48 Posted October 18, 2006 #1 Share Posted October 18, 2006 I have no problem with wearing a tux and I do believe that shoes serve the purpose of comfort and safety,in addition to increasing my desirability to members of the opposite sex,but I just want to be like everyone else and "get away with something". I think I would also be making a statement to Celebrity corporate by letting them know that there's a loophole that I've found, that just might confound their fashion police. I was even thinking about removing food from the buffet area and then the ultimate...flush whilst seated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suzeyQ Posted October 18, 2006 #2 Share Posted October 18, 2006 I think you should e-mail Celebrity and ask them that question. And if tell you that you have to wear shoes, you should cancel your cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeano222 Posted October 18, 2006 #5 Share Posted October 18, 2006 I agree with the poster however my husband never wears shoes, so he will be wearing his tux backwards in protest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drfun48 Posted October 18, 2006 Author #8 Share Posted October 18, 2006 Dammit, AGAIN with the wine in the keyboard. I would suggest a buffet sneeze shield for your computer station. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakenashleysmom Posted October 18, 2006 #9 Share Posted October 18, 2006 What are you the wine police? OK so I started a wee bit early this EVENING! Jake is out playing in the street, with matches. And Ashley is running around with scissors. They both had a nutritious dinner of Capt-n-Crunch with chocolate milk. The sneeze guard is a FABULOUS idea for the keyboard/wine thermos!

drfun48 Posted October 18, 2006 Author #12 Share Posted October 18, 2006 Do I have to wear pants on formal night? No ,not necessarily-kilts are permissible,but do us a favor and watch how you sit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruznTom Posted October 18, 2006 #13 Share Posted October 18, 2006 Now there's a picture - Tux and tie wrapped around the waist with Speedos. The " official" "recommendations" don't speciify where you have to wear them. :eek: Another can of worms! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaisyGirl55 Posted October 18, 2006 #14 Share Posted October 18, 2006 Whilst ya'll are thinking up outrageous outfits, I keep thinking about sitting while you flush! The suction alone would keep you on the pot for the entire cruise!! :eek: Imagine having to call your cabin steward to "break the suction seal" (hahahaha) :p Seriously (did I just say that?) Maybe we should all vote to bring back Theme Nights and add the theme of the most outrageuos formal outfit! It has to be better than Toga night! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GREG781 Posted October 18, 2006 #15 Share Posted October 18, 2006 A tux shirt with bow tie and a thong speedo. If that does not say dressy, nothing does? I will have to try it out on the Mercury in Decemeber! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Ashley is running around with scissors. They both had a nutritious dinner of Capt-n-Crunch with chocolate milk. FINALLY!!!! Someone who KNOWS how to be a parent!:cool: I think the shoes are actually a danger on formal nights...the rest of the time, you can wear a rubber soled shoe, but those darned formal shoes have leather soles...I'm always afraid I'm going to go shooting down the stair "derriere over tete" when I slip on the carpeting.... Maybe to match the theme with the tasteful speedos you all are endorsing, we could wear golf cleats- those little kiltie flaps on the top add a dash of style, n'est pas?:) Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakenashleysmom Posted October 19, 2006 #17 Share Posted October 19, 2006 Kilts with kilties, thats what I'm talkin' about! FYI, I teach a parenting class Monday thru Friday, right after happy hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

m steve Posted October 19, 2006 #21 Share Posted October 19, 2006 This has to be the stupidist thread ever on CC. Let's get back to the important stuff like booze, wine, chair hogs and kids screwing up the elevators. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CGTNORMANDIE Posted October 19, 2006 #22 Share Posted October 19, 2006 M STEVE!!! REALLY!!!:D This is a pertinent topic for sure. I actually have a "formal pair" of sneakers!!! That's right!!! I have a pair of black velour Nike sneakers with small sparkling gold lightning emblems on them. YES I have worn them on formal nights. They are easy to pack and look great with my tux!!! I think it was Woody Allen who first wore black sneakers with his tux...an avant garde fashion statement for sure.:D I also recall Cole Hann making some formal slippers with the Cole Hann crest on them...those were really neat. I hate those stupid mirror finish rental shoes...they are the pits!!! Going barefoot is a no-no. When it comes to formal shoes...you need to be creative!!!:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teedee Posted October 19, 2006 #24 Share Posted October 19, 2006 Do they make formal Crocs? IF they did I'd be the first in line to buy them!! I love my crocs (yes I know they're ugly, they are also the most comfortable shoes I ever put my feet in!) I'd be more worried about being flushed away rather than being sealed to the seat if I sat on the toilet and flushed. Hey, maybe that mysterious green light would show me the way back!

dmarch@islc.net Posted October 19, 2006 #25 Share Posted October 19, 2006 With security being the way it is, I would think no shoes would be a plus. Sounds to me like your just trying to help. I did hear that the guys that x-ray your bags in search of bootleg booze (and oh ya, guns) will be stationed outside the dinning room on formal nights. No formal underwear, no entry!
