Formalities: Black-Tie Tips
An invitation that states: black-tie, white-tie, or cocktail gets our gears in motion. After all, what girl doesn’t love a party and a fancy one at that?
Formal affairs are at the heart of every maven, a golden ticket to glamour. The rules of engagement are simple: stun above the rest.
Choose wisely: gowns that photograph well year after year if you plan on googling yourself. Coifs should be elegant and flattering to the shape of your face, the neckline of your garment and work as a team with your jewels. Clutches should be minimal, sleek and preferably not statement makers at this moment, but a simple, chic and understated lip color-cell phone-key holder. Heels in three words should be: to die for. As Coco said: “Dress shabbily and they remember the dress; dress impeccably and they remember the woman.”
