I watched the runway show. Some really cute retro looking swimsuits. I especially liked the brown one with beading, although not the most practical [emoji14]. Anyone else watch? Thoughts?

I didn't get to watch it live but did go back & watch it on youtube. I guess I'm old school & long for the look of polished models. I guess the trend is flat, unkept hair. I found that to be distracting. I don't care for the high water pants trend or the ugly, super high platform shoes. No wonder Bella Hadid fell. Those shoes are not practical at all & are just asking for a broken ankle. I was not very impressed with the purses in the show either. I may be in the minority but I was not excited at all.

I didn't watch it live either. I didn't see her fall? Yikes. They must have edited that out. The way they wore the crossbodies super high on the chest drove me nuts.

The fall was edited out of the Runway video but there are videos of it on Youtube. It wasn't a big surprise to me given those atrocious high platform shoes & the multiple turns of the runway. I have never liked those shoes going all the way back to the 70's. I did try to wear them back then but found out that style was not for me after a couple of sprained ankles.

Didn't like how high they wore the crossbodies either. Didn't look natural. I was not fond of the super long cuffs on the shirt sleeves; didn't like them for Fall & still don't like them for Spring & Summer.

Right?! I thought cross-body bags weren't supposed to fall under your armpit. LOL! I couldn't figure out how they'd get them off. They probably had to lift their arms straight up and have someone remove them vertically. LOL!

I had to go to Youtube to see that fall you mentioned. Wow! Those platform shoes are really dangerous.
I thought the show was just okay. Nothing really got me excited.

Okey Girls, I need some serious help. My husband just came home telling me that for the first time in years (!!) spouses are invited to attend the Christmas party held for the first time with the new firm and with an entire weekend at a five stars hotel. My husband is one of the CEO's there, and I haven't met anyone that he works with. WHAT AM I GOING TO WEAR!!!??? It is a formal party, heavy on the jewellry front. Anyone? Stores that shipping to Norway? I prefer classy dresses with 3/4 arms or something... ( feeling a bit lost...). At least I know what bag to wear!!

Oh wow! Sounds swanky! Great that you have the bag figured out. That's VERY important [emoji3]! So let's start with what bag you're carrying?

View attachment 3475545 I'm wearing the python Berkley black/gold with MK matching high heels. I'm thinking something black, or navy? Not into red or orange. I have this dress, a sequin dress, but I'm not sure..
Great. I show my husband this dress and he doesn't like it which is VERY annoying as it hangs in my closet. So I'm back at square one. I did find the PERFECT dress today, but of course it was sold out in my size. Anyone??

Why doesn't he like the dress? Is it the shiny sequins? I think it would go perfectly with your black python Berkley clutch and matching shoes. Maybe he's thinking it will be too much sparkle?

What's your absolute favorite color? You could also find that color in a nice long gown and still couple it with your black python clutch and matching shoes. The sparkly black can go with anything. I own a black metal mesh envelope clutch with optional silver shoulder chain (very metallic and shimmery) and can carry it to almost any formal event no matter what I'm wearing.

I don't know why he didn't like it:confused1:. Perhaps since I showed him a photo and not me in the dress. My husband is in the jewelry business so I don't think he minds the sparkle...oh why did I even show him the dress. I should have just put it on the actual night... My favorite colors are beige and navy, and I have a dress with nude details in it but I'm not sure it's classy enough..IGIGI-Francesca-Plus-Size-Lace-Dress.jpg
And this one in all black. Classy, but simple?1baa34b78669a83afe91c69aaf55d329.jpg

Others may have a different opinion, but it sounds like there's going to be a lot of bling bling with all the jewelry around at the holiday party. You may want to avoid the simple and go more sparkly, unless you will be wearing a lot of sparkly jewelry of your own. I'm not a fan of the dress with nude detailing. I think it looks too cocktail-dressy. The all black dress would work if you'll be wearing some stunning jewelry. Otherwise, I think it will be too plain.

A navy gown would look fabulous with your black python clutch and matching shoes. I don't usually like black and navy together, but for evening/formal wear I think the combination looks very sophisticated. Especially when one of the colors is sparkly (i.e., either the gown or your accessories).

Can you go longer with the dress length, or is the knee length more appropriate for this event?
