Lately I have received some e-mails asking me about what kind of dress I would wear for a cocktail party. Well for me is pretty much easier to show it by posting rather than writing you back. I hope it answers all your questions.

Cocktail dresses are suitable for wearing to events such as a semi-formal or other formal occasion. they come in a variety of colors, shapes, and lengths, but one of the most popular choices is the well-known "LBD." But it doesn’t necessarily mean you need to wear a black one, you can chose from a range variety of colors like for instance the color I’ve got in here. Before chosing a cocktail dress is very important to make sure what sort of event you are attending to ( a charity, party, anniversary, etc) so that you can look for a suitable lenght. As you know it varies and some of them stop just above the knee (like mine) while others end around or from above the ankle. The material ( most popular choices are satin and silk) and the shoes that you select can also make the difference to become your outfit an important focal point.

*Important: It should be a cut simple and quite often short unless a dress code is required.

Últimamente he recibido algunos e-mails preguntándome sobre que vestido llevaría para un cóctel. Como me resulta más fácil mostrarlo que escribiros he decidido hacer un post esperando con ello responder a vuestras preguntas.

Tanto si se trata de una ocasión formal como semi-formal puedes encontrar una amplia variedad de colores, formas y distintos largos. El más popular es el socorrido "LBD" pero en mi caso prefiero algo más atrevido como un vestido de lentejuelas. Sólo una cosa, antes de elegir un vestido de cóctel es muy importante que te asegures previamente que clase de evento vas a acudir (una obra de caridad, una fiesta, un aniversario, etc) para que puedas buscar una longitud adecuada (por encima de la rodilla o bien por el tobillo). El tejido ( satén,seda, lentejuelas.. ) y los zapatos que elijas son los puntos que debes potenciar.

* Importante: Para ciertos eventos debes tener en cuenta el "código de vestimenta"
