| Bebe for me? |
The men were dressed very nicely in jackets or suits and ties, but it was difficult to determine how the women were dressed because there were not many women visible. The only woman to speak at the dais was wearing a lovely dress, which was in sync with how the guys were dressed. There were other women seated in the audience, but it was hard to tell how they were dressed. I assume they were similarly dressed, that is dressed appropriately for an awards dinner.
So I got to thinking about how I will dress for the awards dinner.
I looked through my wardrobe and came up with a half dozen dresses that would be appropriate.
But then I reconsidered. This is big ― a once-in-a-lifetime event and I should buy something new to celebrate the occasion.
I’m thinking little black dress, but not just a boring LBD… rather, something a little more spectacular. Or maybe an evening gown.
I have some time to decide. And I welcome your advice.

If you wear the dress in the picture, a significant portion of the audience will wish they could too. Bill
ReplyDeleteWow 'em.
ReplyDeleteThat is my plan.
DeleteBebe is you!
ReplyDeleteYes, without a doubt, mark the event. Your peers are singling you out for your important contributions to their lives. What an achievement this is for you. How can you not dress to the nines?
ReplyDeleteThere is a privilege that is native to your womanhood Stana, the privilege to celebrate your beauty. A little more glitter, a little more perfume, a little more leg on a special occasion. No one would begrudge you that, so go bananas.
My own experience with Bebe is good btw. Sizes tend to run a little small, and online returns are pretty straightforward. So order the size you want AND the one larger to be on the safe side. Return the one you won't wear.
I would also recommend Rent the Runway. Vast array of party frocks, loads of pix and reviews, amazing value for a big night out.
Congratulations on the recognition Stana. And thanks for accepting the award as the very true you.
Thank you for the congrats and advice, Petra.
DeleteLove the dress. However, it maybe a little too short. But who am I to say. I have been choosing shorter hemlines lately. For em its been a battle between 25 year old Susan and 60 year old Susan. The 25 year old is winning. LOL
ReplyDeleteThe dress is definitely a little too short, Susan, and my legs are too long! LOL

DeleteOK, Stana. It's official. You've got bigger huevos than me! For that gig, I'd go drab. But that's ME. You're YOU.
ReplyDeleteSo pull out all the stops!!
CU there -I always do :)

DeleteIt's your night to shine...so go for it, girl! Rock that dress! (I'm not sure what I'd do...but if I didn't do it, I'd always wish I had. As 73/88 says, "Pull out all the stops!!"
ReplyDeleteYes, Mandy, I don't want any regrets.
DeleteIf you go with that, I think I would wear silver jewelry to go with it. Maybe even a bib necklace? But that is me. The black shoes or the nude pumps you love so well?
ReplyDeleteI agree with all your fashion advice, Fiona. The big question is, "Will the dress fit?" I'll have my answer as soon as UPS shows up next week.
