Black Tie Optional for Women: The optional part of this dress code makes this a little murkier to understand at first
A typical traditional wedding has you getting dressed in a hotel room or venue, walking down a fixed aisle or dancing across ballroom floorsall situations where you are walking around on a flat, clean surface
Its fitted bodice and clearly defined waist draw a clean vertical line, and because the skirt flares from the waist, the eye reads the whole lower half as leg, which lengthens the frame
For instance, I recently wore a gorgeous light yellow strapless mini dress, much like the one in my photo, and teamed it with my trusty tan cowgirl boots
This frilly granny-pants garb is the most ridiculous yet, although strangely I feel the most at home in it
I would also suggest this as a cover- up if youre going from pool/beach to dinner
