| PBX Formal 2012 |
Hey y'all,
Tonight is Phi Beta Chi Kappa Chapter's Formal so it got me thinking about a sorority chat centered around what to wear to a formal. Now similar to prom, most formals take place at a nice country club, hotel, etc. but it always depends on your chapter. The question of short versus long dresses is also a chapter decision. At my school both short and long are worn and I wore both. Let's take a trip down memory lane:

The first year I attended Formal I actually wore an old prom gown but in Junior and Senior year I wore J.Crew cocktail dresses I found at Warehouse Sales since I knew that there would not be a lot of events in my future "real world" life that warranted formal attire. I know that often times when attending a Fraternity formal sisters chose short dresses since they were easier to pack for the weekend away. I think it always depends on tradition of the specific chapter/event. However, if I was attending a formal this year, these dresses would be on my wishlist:
Now go find some gorgeous dancing shoes, a nice gentleman as your date and enjoy a night of dancing (taking a million photos) and enjoying the end of the semester.
This makes me want to get dressed up and go to formal!! These are always so much fun. Great dress choices!
ReplyDeleteI know! I am jealous of everyone going out tonight to the Carolina Inn. :( Can there be a Postgrad Blogger's formal?
DeleteSuch a fun post! I LOVE those dresses!!
ReplyDeleteSeeing everyone's formal photos this year made me miss it so much! I loved dressing up for formal. I wore a full-length gown to my freshman year formal and then a cocktail dress for my other formals. My favourite place to find a dress was always BCBG.
ReplyDeletePS: I totally want in on this post-grad blogger formal!
