help, internets! fashion emergency!

Okay. I just found out that the wedding I am going to in 2 weeks is black tie optional!

Ack!

This means my little sundress from Tar-Jay will not do. Now what?

I just ordered this online:
Gp56897500p01v01_2

Its silk. But its charcoal grey. Is that okay? Any other suggestions where to look for something?

    seriously, who does black tie optional, anyway? ;-) do not stress, this dress is beautiful (and i’m sure your other one is fine too!). i know the bride – she’s crazy, but she won’t kick you out! two more weeks! ack, when did that happen?

    Personally, I think that dress is absolutely B-E-A-U-tiful! It is classy, yet not too formal. I think it is perfect! Plus….you know there will be people who show up in jeans! Never fails. Every time I am worried that I am under dressed, God provides someone who makes me feel better;)

    I LOVE that dress…it is very cute. Maybe throw a shaw over it for a little more of a classy look, but then sling it over your chair when you sit down cause they can be annoying!

    I think that dress will be absolutely fine with some dress up jewelry and cute shoes. You can most definitley pull it off! It looks super comfy too, which is super important.

    I think it’s beautiful. I wish I could still pull off strapless (nummies, not having it). I’ll have this problem in September…better get thinking about that.
