SpekiTrout Posted April 15, 2012 #831 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Hello to All ! I just found this thread and can't tell you how much I have enjoyed reading it all ! I have loved all the dresses that I've seen here! I'll be stopping by frequently to see who's doing what and who's wearing what... and who's going where ! Marie .. I so hope you enjoyed your 82 day world cruise ... I know everyone here enjoyed your photo's . Your gowns and dresses caught everyone's eye and you have elegant taste to say the least. The longest we've ever been to sea was 18 days .. and due to being owned by two loveable "Fur Faces" that in iteself was too long for us. We now try to keep our cruises 11 days or less. I'll now have to go and find the first thread and read thru that . Hope everyone has a great Sunday ... and again .. thank you for all your input and web pages on "where" to get the best buys .

iheartbda Posted April 15, 2012 #832 Share Posted April 15, 2012 (edited) A boatload!:D Seriously way too many and I keep telling Drew that I am going to start getting rid of some of them...I know there are over a dozen evening gowns and proabably twice that many cocktail dresses. The good thing' date=' I never pay really high prices for dresses to wear on cruises. We love having the photos on the cruises, and this way I can justify buying more.:rolleyes:;)[/b'] I really do plan to weed some things from my closet once things slow down at work for the Summer. I really need the space. A couple years ago, I changed all the hangers in our closets to the space savers! Thank goodness for that...I love them...so much more room for dresses! :D Ha,ha ha....a boat load, well this is CRUISE critic.LOL I know what you mean about justifying the cost. I always get my gowns and cocktail dresses at really good prices so then I can buy without feeling guilty. Also know what you mean about weeding out and needing space. Right now I'm in three closets.:o I used to have those padded satin hangers which were so pretty but took up waaaay too much room. Got rid of those and exchanged for the ones they use in stores but am now getting the skinny ones. Like those lots since they are so skinny and the velvety finish on them keep things from sliding off. Have you considered donating any of your "extras" to the Recyling Clothing thread? http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=989623 PS, You always have great shoes as well.:) Edited April 15, 2012 by iheartbda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smedley_odwin Posted April 15, 2012 #833 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Some gorgeous dress choices girls! Notme, I absolutely adore that teal dress, you look amazing in it. As others have said you could wear a small shrug if you're really self conscious, but I absolutely don't think you need to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IrishLassie Posted April 15, 2012 #835 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Hi again, Sherrie Lynn, I saw where you said you might get rid of some of your dress's. I just went thru mine & took them to a place we have here for "prom night". It's for young girls that can't afford to spend $$$$ for a gown, so you might want to see if they have that down your way. Also, thanks for the advice on the dress I'm looking at from "your site" :D I'll give that a try. It's the dress that is chiffon with a satin wide belt look & one shoulder. I also like that "blue" sundress that Joyce got from eBay. Really cute for a cruise. I love tropical clothing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand there is a program similar here in the area....I know a large Church here in the area had that program each year....sadly their property was foreclosed on the Thursday before Easter and they could not even have Easter services. I can call the local newspaper and see if they know of another program here that does that. Might not be too late for their proms. If it is, I can always have some ready for next year. Thanks for the inspiration. Wasn't Joyce dress so cute? Love the print and the color, and hey we can wear those all year here!:D I think I know the dress you are talking about...long or short....I bought three of the long ones with the wide satin sash (bow at the waist) and one shoulder from her. I wanted other colors, so she did them in black, a dark hunter green and a pewter grey....:rolleyes::) Thanks again...have a good evening Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
