The Threads Thread

The last threads thread went poof, so here we go....

Wearing this new dress to a holiday event. I hope you can see how pretty the neckline & lace edging is. It goes into the same "v" in the back too. 

It's my favorite part of the dress so I'm torn about jewelry. 

So: choker length necklace? drop necklace?

or just put my hair up and wear pearl studs without a necklace?

(Also, dress was a steal at the outlet!)

Something dangly right into the cleavage is gonna have guys looking at your boobs all night. Sounds like a win.

I like the idea of a choker length.  Could you do that and post a pic?

HowlAtTheMoon

I say either a fine pendant at the cleavage or no necklace at all and go with dangly earrings.  But I dislike chokers so I'm biased.

Angeline

I love chokers but I also vote for no necklace, dangly earrings, and pretty, touchable, soft updo to show off the neck, back and cleavage.

Team pendant or no necklace here, too.
I think a choker would ruin the line.

Winter

I'm no necklace : )

I like the sparkly  but what is the event?

I love the back of this shirt, but the material is sheer. Any suggestions for keeping some modesty in the front without having the tank interrupt this backline? I can't sew, so I'm hoping there's some magical undergarment out there. Would prefer to have nothing covering the back (not a tank or bra strap), but to not have my nipples and belly button showing through the front of the shirt.

Stick on bra cups, if they work for you.

A low backed swimsuit/top.

A very cheap tank/camisole, cut in back to be lower than the top layer. If you don't sew, the cut edge alone will be fine for one night, but will probably not last a washing. [Which is why I say very cheap.]

@amblrgirl,
multiway bra.


They are great. But it's a challenge like the Rubik cube to get the straps right. At least for me...

Winter

I need that. Where can I find one in the us? 

Maria

@Winter,
Victoria's secret very likely. I know that they sell them.

Purple

@Winter ;
There is always Amazon

Katt

A cami secret or other mock front only camisole would work.

I would say cut the back out of a cheap tank and then pin or stitch it into the shoulders of the shirt to keep it in place, so it doesn't slide forward/off the shoulder/whatever.

We have a Christmas party (at our house) tomorrow night and I am trying to select an outfit.  H loves me in the red shirt and skirt best for some reason.  The dresses look a little young, I think.  Not sure.  Thoughts?

SignorePillolaRossa

you look great in all 3
wear the one the H likes best - i'm guessing there are 2 really nice reasons why he likes that one best  
all 3 need sexier/cuter shoes
but yeah, you do really look great - congrats on that!

I forgot to add, I could also wear the red dress in my profile pic here.  I wear different shoes in that photo.  H likes them better too.

SignorePillolaRossa

the shoes in the profile pic are better than the ones in the pics above
but you could do better still
