sassystyxfan Posted February 12, 2006 #1 Share Posted February 12, 2006 The dress (with a black satin sash), shoes (black satin - they have white on them too) and purse (6 1/2" x 3 3/4" - I love tiny purses!) are all satin. I also have a little, black, 3/4 sleeve bolero that's satiny. Thoughts? Well, the dress and purse didn't work - so I'm sending the links: http://www.whiteandblack.com/store/productchoose.asp?PID=300104042 http://www.shoebuy.com/sb/s.jsp/r_ss/d_AdultF_Dress/p0_3412/b_4-0.82905-1.2-10.8-12.75039/sh_D/p_29/st_40079/sbstl_40079 http://www.coloriffics.com/showcase/catalog_prod_det.asp?div=5&dpt=&ctg=&PROD_CD=HB717 silk dress.bmp satin purse.bmp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LandLockedInAZ Posted February 12, 2006 #2 Share Posted February 12, 2006 I was on the Diamond Princess- Mexican Riviera about 16 mos. ago. I think this will work great. Have fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndiandMike Posted February 12, 2006 #3 Share Posted February 12, 2006 I've on the Caribbean Princess twice and I think that is perfect. I myself was surprised range of dresses on formal nights on Princess. I was expecting ladies dressed up more, but most of what I saw was a spectrum of cocktail, tea and floor length dresses. That outfit is adorable. you'll be stunning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sassystyxfan Posted February 12, 2006 Author #5 Share Posted February 12, 2006 I'm a sucker for black and white! I just decided to lighten it up and go more white for once. I can't wait to see the black and white shoes in person. Anyway - thanks for replying!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sassystyxfan Posted February 15, 2006 Author #8 Share Posted February 15, 2006 Here's my dilemna... I tried on the dress, but now the shoes and purse won't match. The dress is ivory not white. SO - I thought I would go with black strappy sandals to go with the black silk bolero and black sash on the dress. Or should I go with ivory shoes? I'm thinking I could wear the black shoes with my other formal night dresses too. What do ya think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jane110 Posted February 15, 2006 #9 Share Posted February 15, 2006 My vote is for the black strappy sandals. Jane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kbt2 Posted February 15, 2006 #11 Share Posted February 15, 2006 I love the dress and think you will look great in it, as it's my Fav store! But, I do not care for the shoes. I would opt for a black more stappy and smaller ( meaning in size of heel not height) heel shoe. I think the one's in the pic are too chunky and not as sophisticated as the dress is. Just my thoughts. I don't want you to get a smokin' dress and go wrong with the shoes. :) Have a great cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbt2 Posted February 15, 2006 #12 Share Posted February 15, 2006 okay just saw in later post that you ruled out the white shoes. YES, go with black heels w/black sash! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kbt2 Posted February 16, 2006 #16 Share Posted February 16, 2006 yep...those would be THE one's to wear! you knew just what I was imagining! That would be GORGEOUS with your gorgeous dress. There is a dress they have in their store that I want right now, just for a casual dinner night...waiting for it to go on sale, but typically when they do they end up being out of my size, so thinking of biting the bullet and buying it! WH/BM is my FAV! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sassystyxfan Posted February 16, 2006 Author #17 Share Posted February 16, 2006 Is it the one that's strapless, sweetheart top and lace hem? If not, you gotta see this cute dress! It's so tropical looking in a classy way. I saw it after trying on the formal dress (on the way out of the store). Thought I would get it online. It was displayed with a little white cardigan. Anyway, they aren't showing it online so my girlfriend went back to the store and bought us both one. I paid WAY too much money for it and the cardigan too, but what the heck!

sassystyxfan Posted February 16, 2006 Author #18 Share Posted February 16, 2006 Love em...just couldn't walk in them:p I'm wondering if my wide feet would hate these shoes too. I can just see my toes all hanging out of the sides. I may have to go to Plan B, but I'll try them on and see. Anyone have a good Plan B for wide feeties?

Ehpride Posted February 16, 2006 #19 Share Posted February 16, 2006 I wish I could help you, but I have the opposite problem with narrow feet! It's funny because I can wear slides or thongs and keep them on my feet but pumps without an ankle strap will never stay on my feet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HstTeacher Posted February 16, 2006 #20 Share Posted February 16, 2006 I love the dress and black strappy shoes you posted!! If you look at my thread "My dresses for formal night" you'll see the shoes!! They are comfortable and easy to walk in. My feet are average width.

If you look at my thread "My dresses for formal night" you'll see the shoes!! They are comfortable and easy to walk in. My feet are average width. That's it - I have to try these shoes on. Which means I have to go back into that store. Which means I'm prolly in big trouble! I LOVE THAT STORE! Anyway, LOVE the pink dress in your thread! And my girlfriend that is going with us on our next cruise bought the champagne dress. It is SO cute on. Thank you, everyone, for your help. This is the best category (Cruise Fashions) ever.

trish1c Posted February 17, 2006 #22 Share Posted February 17, 2006 sassy -- The dress is lovely. I will tell you I didn't like the white shoes. :o The heel was too chunky for such a flowy dress, IMO. You have already discovered white shoes don't work with your ivory dress. The black strappy shoes are cute but I don't think they will look good with the dress; they are too severe for such a soft dress & will be glaring against the ivory. Since you are going shoe shopping anyway, :D , please consider ivory or gold / champagne strappy sandals something that conbines the clean lines of the white shoes with the narrow heel of the black shoes. Enjoy your shopping trip & cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sassystyxfan Posted February 17, 2006 Author #24 Share Posted February 17, 2006 I really don't want to get ivory shoes because I want to wear the same dressy shoes all three formal nights. I think with the black bolero and black sash that the black strappy sandals will tie it all in. No? Am I way off base here? These are glittery, satiny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jane110 Posted February 17, 2006 #25 Share Posted February 17, 2006 Anyone have a good Plan B for wide feeties? Yes, buy C width shoes. Stuart Weitzman makes alot of evening shoes and he makes shoes in A, B and C widths. You can buy them on Zappos.com or in stores like Sak's, Bloomingdales and perhaps Macy's.
