But I do think it's fun to look at the pretty clothes. :)<br /><br />I still don't understand the concept of buying a cruise-specific wardrobe. I mean, I know that there are usually some formal events so you might need an evening dress and you might want a nice hat or something for hanging out on the deck, but other than that...I'm still having a hard time picturing it. Do people still dress in nautical-themed wear now? I went on a cruise once, but it was not a fancy cruise. I just wore jeans and such.Ninahttp://sweetdisarray.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5716464676430798966.post-30568534751762810252012-02-10T11:37:33.070-05:002012-02-10T11:37:33.070-05:00Oh, nobody dresses exactly like Vogue, but it give...Oh, nobody dresses exactly like Vogue, but it gives a sense of what colors and what 'feel' of clothes are in style.

You dress up that sort of thing via the shoes. Not necessarily heels, but cool, interesting flat shoes. Ankle boots, Clarks, Doc Martins. I do the clothes from gifts or the thrift store and spend money on the shoes. <br /><br />So far with our half-Korean kid, you can't tell unless his Dad is holding him. No one has asked me where I got him yet (phew!)OTRgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12433339525588500502noreply@blogger.com
