Vendela · 11-20-2006, 03:56 AM

Its more classic. If you think its too 'much' maybe U can make it more conservative by addding tights/hose. hth

Nimotalai · 11-20-2006, 09:19 AM

i like dress #1 better. I just think you should cut off the sleeves and make it sleeveless though. But I like that one better.

Efizzybaby · 11-20-2006, 01:12 PM

sapphire · 11-20-2006, 07:09 PM

^^ that would be nice in black and the top two buttons unbuttoned. then add matching bead necklace and shoes.

Teedra · 11-20-2006, 10:46 PM

They are both okay.
I think they are really conservative. And i figured you are trying to have a conservative look since it's an office x-mas party. However i think you should spice it up just a tiny bit. You can have a conservative look and still make a statement at the party.

First and Foremost, what is your budget?

hotchoc · 11-20-2006, 10:58 PM

am leaning towards the first dress shayo posted.Nice.The second one looks more like a weddingy type of dress or sthg u'd wear to black tie event

Teedra · 11-20-2006, 11:03 PM

These were some of the outfits i found. Hope you like?

This is $22.50

This is $24.50 (This kind of reminds of outfits made by MISSIONI)

Teedra · 11-20-2006, 11:21 PM
