not sure Two Sheds what your take is on fur, BUT.......... even a decent faux Fur shrug/short jacket is a must in any womans wardrobe, goes with anything, and keeps you snug...........mind you there is nothing sexier looking on a woman in evening dress, than her mans tux jacket, means he cares enough that you might be cold
and on that note i have just realised that i have NO party dresses at all in my wardrobe i never get to go anywhere
moving to france methinks, wif jeans and a decent cable knit.
Why on earth should you need to wear different clothes for different events??
I have plenty of exceptionally expensive frocks for spesh events...can't be doing with ...new stuff anymore
Well I don't have lots of frocks.
I have one cocktail dress (too tutu like) and last year's ball dress which is now all snagged and tatty.
I have a wardrobe full of gardening slobby stuff, but that won't cut it
You have all my sympathy Two Sheds, I'm so glad I don't have to go through all that now. It was bad enough this year for DDs graduation. But I'm sure you'll have a great time when you get there - it's just the preparation that takes it out of you.
As usual at this time of year all my panic energy goes into my fancy dress for new year's eve!
Life is too short for drama & petty things!
So laugh insanely, love truly and forgive quickly!
Nicos, I agree totally. Whilst cow value is important, the way you dress just shouldnt be. The ex Mrs Leponge used to really give me a hard time for being too casual in the way I dressed, but then we would go to a function, and I would be dressed the same as all other Frenchies. Not slobby just not dressed to the 9's. A much more relaxed style of evening here.

Life's disappointments are so much harder to take if you don't know any swear words.
Jacobs solution is long thigh length boots shortish dress with bingo neckline(eye's down look in).
Rawhide bra (head e'm up move e'm out) .
A nice long of the shoulder length blonde wig .
sounds perfect to me ....... as long as it's all in black and i don't have to 'do' blonde lol ........ i only have one really posh frock, in purple clingy glitter, that i bought when i was 18 in case i ever went to a posh party ......... it's moved in my wardrobe to 14 different addresses, and i still haven't worn it ....... although i still live in hope ......... most of the parties i go to, black PVC and thigh boots are the order of the day lol

in my circles its sheer black lace nothing underneath and a pointy hat
that has been known too ........ when i wear the dress that my darling son says YOU ARE NOT GOING OUT IN THAT (bless him) ...... but usually with ears and a tail and not the pointy hat lol
If I need a tux, I hire one, isn't it cheaper in the long run than going out and buying it, you can always guarantee it will fit.
Oh and as for 3 days, I'm more of a 10 minutes kinda bloke, you have the 3 s's, sh.., shower, shave, then smellies, undies, tux, shoes, and once ready 3 1/2 hours repeated say that's lovely dear, and no not that big, and my personal favourite, alright........can we go now!!

If it's a tux do I won't go I hate having to dress up like a chuffin' penguin.
My idea of a DJ is denim jeans or a donkey jacket.
Yes I'm having a grump
The river Trent is lovely, I know because I have walked on it for 18 years.
