What to wear to a cotillion as a guest?
I'm not actually in the cotillion, I am a guest of my boyfriend's who is an escort. He told me it was a fancy thing and to wear some type of evening gown. When I asked my mom what qualifies as an evening gown, she said they are floor length dresses. & I don't have any floor length dresses, mainly cause I don't like them. The ones I do have are prom dresses, which I'm not gonna wear. I have 4 other Dresses, one's a black summer dress( I do not plan on wearing) 2nd's a Black strapless dress that I wore to winter formal so It's short. It goes past my finger tips with my arms straight down next to my sides (with no cheating!) & stops right above my knees, sometimes shorter depending on how high I pull it up but not much shorter. It's very ruffly & it's from Express. If I find a pic I'll post the link. 3rd choice is a teal spaghetti strap dress (also ruffly!) Shorter than the black one ( most likely this is my last choice) 4th Dress It's casual I guess you can call it that. I wore it to a graduation. The top is blue and the bottom half where it drops & begins to flow is black. It has rufflyish flowy short sleeves & one of those bow tying things in the back. Do any of these dresses sound appropriate for the night or should I go dress shopping!?!? If I should get a new dress can you post a link of one that has an appropriate length so I can see what I'm looking for please! also Straps, sleeves or strapless or it doesn't matter? Should I get a shaw type thing or mini/short sweater things for a strapless? Anything else I should probably know/ look for? All this help/ advice would be greatly appreciated, thank you!
What kinds of clothes do people wear in summer?
Summer season means sweating, getting dehydrated and even break into a heat rash. Still, we can prevent ourself from these problems by dressing smart and wearing the right clothes to beat the heat.Try light colored clothesColors like white, light pink, beige & other light shades keep you cool because they reflect most of the sun rays back into the atmosphere. Dark fabrics, on the other hand, tend to absorb these rays and trap their heat, making you feel even hotter.Try to wear loose clothesAvoid wearing tight clothes that will restrict your circulation & make you feel uncomfortable due to sweating.Try to wear cotton fabricsCotton clothes help to absorb sweat from your body. It works like a towel & helps to keep you cool & prevent from infection. You should avoid synthetic fiber as much as possible.Choose the right clothing styleSelect right clothes for summers like if you are going for outing/home you can wear the floral maxi dress, shorts or bikini but don't forget to apply sunscreen before going out. The sun rays dry your skin causing it to become stiff and more prone to ageing and wrinkles. The ideal clothing choices for summer are loose pants or long skirts with tops.Source :- Stylish Casual And Formal Clothes for Women
