    My church just announced they are hosting a black tie Christmas party so I started doing research, and that verse takes the cake!!! That was so awesome to God be praise. The confirmation that this was the right video for me was THERE. I salute you for being one of the few openly Christian and quality channels here on YT.

    After work Monday through Thursday..stick to a dinner suit; little black dress or jumpsuit. Friday & Saturday wear more formal attire. Play close attention to invite details too!🤩👍🏾🙌🏾

    It seems like gowns are usually made way too long for the average person! Is it acceptable if they drag on the ground a bit, or should we get them hemmed?

  • @asimonaghita

    I liked the info. I would have liked to see some pictures of jewelry and shoes for these events. The dresses were well explained with examples but the shoes and jewelry were barely explained. You mentioned outdoors but indoor? I was really looking forward to that as well as the jewels and now I feel like I don’t have all the info 😢
    Vould you please add in some pictures of ahoes for indoors and explain the materials as well and the jewelry (pearls? Gold? Big small? )
    Also, what type of coat can be worn🙏 thank you

    • @DrusillaShay
      @DrusillaShay  4 місяці тому

      Hi there! Thank you so much for sharing. When it comes to jewelry, I didn't elaborate because the topic of jewelry is very vast. There are many options when it comes to that, and jewelry (for me) is always dependent on the dress/outfit you are wearing. For me, I even pick jewelry based on color and design of outfit, neckline, etc... so it gets very specific. I do appreciate you sharing this though, because maybe you're not the only one who feels this way. What I will do is work on a dedicated video for accessorizing for black tie.
      For now, what I will say is to keep it simple and dainty if you're unsure (I'll add some links for you in another comment)... if you're wondering what size and whether to wear pearls, diamonds, etc, again- that depends on what your base outfit is. The more busy your outfit is, the more simple and small your jewelry should be. The more plain it is, the more you're able to wear bigger jewelry/statement pieces.
      As for shoes- again, depends on your outfit. I recommend *not* wearing a skinny heel if you'll be in grass/dirt. When it comes to indoors, you can wear whatever dressy shoe makes you comfortable- anything goes indoors because the floor is solid. If anyone is able to wear a heel, I always recommend it because it looks fancier than a flat. Open toed heels works well in the warmer months, and closed-toed pumps work well in the colder months. Material of shoe can vary, but the dressier materials are leather, patent leather, sparkly shoes, suede, mesh, and nylon.
      I hope this helps!

      Here are some jewelry examples (but again, really depends on what you are wearing... and it even depends on your hairstyle. I wouldn't say that each of these goes with every fancy look- but I'll explain more when I make an accessory video). If your dress/outfit already has jewels on it, match the rest of your accessories to that. Also, some of these are quite expensive, but just sharing as examples. You can definitely find more affordable options! :

    What about Qipao? The traditional Chinese dress, I think the length would be appropriate, but I don't know! Would you recommend it?

    • @DrusillaShay
      @DrusillaShay  11 місяців тому +2

      I would say that that can pass, especially because quipaos look more elegant and most of them reach the ankle (or close to it).

    I only feel comfortable in sneakers. Going to a black tie event next week. Heels hurt my legs and I always have an injury on my toes when I wear them. Even the sandal ones.
    Isn’t there a way to pass sneakers in and still look classy?

    • @DrusillaShay
      @DrusillaShay  Рік тому +7

      I'm not going to lie, I haven't seen sneakers at all at black tie events but you never know! Would you feel comfortable wearing dressy flats?

      There are some formal dress shoes for people with foot disabilities. Check the podiatrist office for catalogs or go online. There's a dressy shoes for everyone.

    I’m seeing lots of visual references with trains. Hard to keep it from getting stepped on in a crowded room. Just saying…

    • @DrusillaShay
      @DrusillaShay  2 місяці тому

      That's a valid point. Although there are some visuals of dresses with trains in this video, it's not a must. It adds more drama, but anyone who is uncomfortable with it can opt for a dress without a train.

      You can definitely wear pale pink, especially since it's spring time 😌 I'll be coming out with a spring/summer edition of this video soon!

    Plaese don't wear lingerie type clothing either. Check your under garments too. Make the investment. Nothing ruins a look is poor undergarments.

    • @DrusillaShay
      @DrusillaShay  3 місяці тому +1

      absolutely! undergarments should be smooth and undetectable.
