NYE on the beach - what to wear? Added some other options...
Permalink Closed

My husband and some friends are going to Mexico for a few days over new years.  The place we are staying and the little town are very rustic.  No electricity, which means no hair dryer (eeek!) or AC.  We've gone before, so I know what I am getting myself into .  Most of my time will be spent in tanks and skirts, but I want to get a cute dress for new years because we are going to a fairly trendy place.  Here's a link if you want to take a peek:

Because I can't iron it, it has to travel well, so I am thinking cotton jersey or silk.  And because it will be hot, something loose and drapy.  Do you like these or have any other suggestions??  TIA!

I'm nervous the pink one isn't bra-friendly and won't look good commando, so I searched for some other options.  Would these be ok or too dressy?

The pink dress is adorable!  The green one is also nice.

you are a lucky girl--i love that area of mexico!  the pink is my favorite, too, but they are all really cute.  the brown one would maybe be a bit more comfortable, since it has the blouson top, if you are going for a big dinner.

The strapless pink is my favorite.

Lucky lucky girl!

Of what you've chosen, I like the brown blouson dress the best. I've seen that Anthro one IRL and it seems like the colors would be difficult to wear. 


While I like the strapless pink one...it doesn't seem like THE dress.


Maybe a Rachel Pally dress would be nice? They travel really well, and the modal/spandex blend is very accommodating to things like large dinners. There's a bunch of colors on the thefashionpulse.com.

I'm thinking of wearing my sage green full-tie tube dress to my Christmas party (I'm in Los Angeles).

I know I love getting ideas for when I have an occasion, so I decided to post some more for you.  They are jersey knit.



All from victoria's secret. I can't say to the quality, but I imagine most jersey is similar.


Have Fun.

My vote: the brown one, and the strapless pink one, and the dress Lilykind posted.

ETA: Have fun!!

I have fantasies about getting married on the beach in this dress.
