smcs28 Posted August 16, 2013 #2704 Share Posted August 16, 2013 I have been shopping for our cruise this week (we're going in December) (I am a tshirts and jean person, so I figured I should have some nicer clothes) and I think I am heading in the right direction. I got 3 nice shirts, a summer dress and a pair of sandals for $50 yesterday. I just want to get some pants, and a couple of pairs of capris, and a pair of flats. I already have dresses for the formal nights since I just got married on july 6th and have my reception dress and my rehearsal dinner dress. This is my rehearsal dinner dress. reception dress dress I got engaged in, then wore for engagement pictures. Summer dress I wore for my bachelorette. Yes, that's me eating street meat and getting a professional photo shoot of it...LOL I will put together outfits for the cruise and post pics of that for some critiques :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indiana71 Posted August 16, 2013 Author #2708 Share Posted August 16, 2013 smcs28: Me too! LOVED your photos!! All dresses are perfect for formal nights. How cool to have that part of the Outfits Plan in order:). Looking forward to more photos... Today we are back at our "primary residence" to take care of chores...so a stop at Starbucks and the mall were in order. I tried on a dress, Capris and 2 tops...and 2 pairs of sandals. Bought zilch...until the jewelry counter sign said , "Buy One Get One". Two pairs of earrings called my name - they will be hoping to make the Next Cruise Outfits spreadsheet! It isn't September yet so buying is still allowed...;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Scrapnana Posted August 16, 2013 #2709 Share Posted August 16, 2013 It isn't September yet so buying is still allowed...;) You are too funny! I think I might have to join you with the "no buying" idea. My cruise closet is full. I got something out yesterday and had to struggle to get it back in!:eek: I don't really have that many clothes, it is a really small closet.

Rare Scrapnana Posted August 18, 2013 #2713 Share Posted August 18, 2013 Lexi. You had much better luck than I did at Macy's. That dress is so cruise-y and what a buy!

TNGALOHA Posted August 18, 2013 #2716 Share Posted August 18, 2013 Good morning everyone, I found address that I fell in love with for our next cruise and I want to surprise my husband with it when I come out one night. Do you think it looks ok or do you think it looks a little on the sl***y side? At 61 I sure don't need to be wearing dress that look sl***y. http://www.aliexpress.com/item/2013-New-Arriva-Free-Shipping-Cheap-Sheath-Lace-Champagne-High-Pageant-Zuhair-Murad-Prom-Dresses-For/1019698364.html I hope this link works.

Their sale racks are great, indeed! And they had a one-day sale yesterday, so I got some really good pieces for myself, my sisters, and my mom. 5 tops, 3 dresses, and a romper for under $100.
