Party Dress
Permalink Closed

My 30th Birthday is coming up and we're having a party at our house with about 50 people. I'd like a really special party dress for it. I want something that feels very special since I'll only turn 30 once. No real price that doesn't mean I want to go ridiculous expensive, make sense? So help please!

But my #1 pick is that black / gold dress from Anthro. I've been drooling over that & I want to live vicariously through you!

I am waiting to respond to read what your reaction is to what has been posted.  Some of the things I had in mind are more casual (although gorgeous) - but I'm going to wait until I know what direction you're going in.


I also had to comment on this model -- that's some serious collagen action going on there:

Love alot of these dresses. I should have posted this in the beginning. No spaghetti straps or strapless dresses. Pretty much nothing I can't wear a bra with straps. Halter is ok though. I hate the way my boobs look in a strapless bra. They never sit right. These are my favorites so far



I like the idea of covered on top with a shorter skirt or knee length skirt with more open neck line.


Love to see what you have in mind D

maybe this one is a little too fancy for the party, but it is incredible:



also love this Missoni dress D posted:


BGOF7_T0Y0P


this one, while gorgeous, might elicit a comment from the Fug Girls containing the words "breeze" or "wind" and a creative metaphor for the ladybits:
