F&BR: Dress me?

H's company holiday party is next week. It's super casual and hosted at his VP's home. H will be in jeans (and says most people wore jeans last year, I didn't go), but I'd so much rather wear a casual dress.

I have this one:

I was thinking of wearing it with black tights and slouchy black heeled boots. Appropriate? Too dressy? Any ideas for how to accessorize? TIA!

Re: F&BR: Dress me?

  • I would maybe dress it down by not wearing black tights but cream-colored cable-knit tights or something so it feels less LBD. It does feel a little dress if everyone else is in jeans...I'd maybe switch to a skirt/tights/boot combo with a sweater.

  • Oooh, I like the idea of the cream tights! I'll have to play around. Maybe pair with brown boots instead of black. Good idea!

  • i couldn't see the dress yesterday at work but i don't think that it's too much. it def looks like a sweater dress which is something that I wouldn't think is too dressy.

    I like pairing my brown boots with black, I think it would dress it down a little too.
