Char32 Posted November 23, 2010 #132 Share Posted November 23, 2010 Thanks alamogirl! Thank you Faith413, you ladies have put my concerns to rest. Do you ladies have any suggestions for shoes and jewelry? Now i need to find a second dress for formal night! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alamogirl Posted November 23, 2010 #133 Share Posted November 23, 2010 I myself would wear long earrings in gold if wearing gold strappy sandle type shoes or silver if wearing silver shoes. I would not wear a big necklace because of the neckline. Maybe a broach at the waist instead. I am sure whatever you wear, you will look FANTASTIC!!!!

Kikkycat Posted November 24, 2010 #134 Share Posted November 24, 2010 I love all three of these!! We dance and I could see me doing all of them- where did you find them?? We are near DC. S. Sorry I haven't replied. Just back from our cruise a couple days ago, with a rotten head cold so haven't been at my computer as much. I got them at either Ross Dress for Less or Marshalls. TJ Maxx is a distant possibility. Each was between $20-30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prairie_Gal Posted November 26, 2010 #135 Share Posted November 26, 2010 Thought I would chime in...I just ordered these two dresses...do you think they'll be nice enough? http://www.igigi.com/plus-size-sale/l-artiste-maxi-dress.html and this: http://www.igigi.com/plus-size-sale/sorbetto-delights-dress-in-magenta.html I'll need to pick up a shawl for both - but I think I should be able to get something that will match both. If you haven't ordered yet, try coupon code THANKS50 to get 50% off. I got an email yesterday from Igigi with this offer. Also check out their 15% and 25% off sales.

Cristallo Posted November 26, 2010 #136 Share Posted November 26, 2010 I just wanted to say that I went into my local Ross the other day and they had a lot of cute plus sized dresses up to size 26 I think. I made a comment to the sales lady and she said they were starting to get their party dresses in stock now. So it might be worth it to check it out.

brooklynfc Posted November 26, 2010 #137 Share Posted November 26, 2010 I looked up the ebay dresses and found another website for some plus size evening wear, looks pretty good and some discount prices today, I guess just today. http://www.vankle.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barefoot cruiser Posted November 30, 2010 #140 Share Posted November 30, 2010 I just wanted to say that I went into my local Ross the other day and they had a lot of cute plus sized dresses up to size 26 I think. I made a comment to the sales lady and she said they were starting to get their party dresses in stock now. So it might be worth it to check it out. Thanks!!! They just opened here about 2 weeks ago, I went in and low and behold PLUS size dresses. I was able to get a cute little black sequined dress ($32) for my upcoming cruise. I have never had a sequined dress and it is exactly what I wanted for this upcoming "29th" birthday cruise. I just lost some pounds and was so excited that it fit and was actually cut to really flatter my body plus size that it is...I will post a picture when I can. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaye745 Posted December 15, 2010 #143 Share Posted December 15, 2010 Okay, just wondering if it's just me, or do all ladies of a "certain age" start dealing with this... I will turn 45 on my birthday in February, and it seems like overnight my body has changed shapes. I've always been more pear shaped, but with a small waist and wider bottom...but sometime in the last year my waist is dissappearing! I haven't really gained weight, it is just redistributing. Anyone else have this issue? Any suggestions? All of your dresses look beautiful, and everyone seems so confident in their pictures. My family tease me that they can't find pictures of me ever because I HATE to have my image taken. Shelia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murfturf Posted December 16, 2010 #144 Share Posted December 16, 2010 (edited) Here is one of my dresses from last year's cruise. I can't wait to wear my new dress for the next one! This was from Ross, as is the one I'm wearing on the next upcoming cruise! Edited December 16, 2010 by murfturf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murfturf Posted December 16, 2010 #145 Share Posted December 16, 2010 (edited) Love all the dresses! I love that "50's Look" one Millandra! the petticoat is great :) And, Char32, the purple off the shoulder dress is really stunning... I wish I had come here sooner to find out about eBay. I mean I know about eBay, but to find dresses? Maybe I could sell mine on there! LOL Edited December 16, 2010 by murfturf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

musicmom3 Posted December 24, 2010 #150 Share Posted December 24, 2010 I'm currently shopping for dress pants and tops because dresses make me feel self-conscious. But I have to say, you ladies in dresses look INCREDIBLE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
