convention outfits and all that!

first of all! thank you for helping me with my outfits

for the Convention I have to work starting Saturday.

You guys made it pretty easy to decide what to wear

to the Officer's Reception:

i'll wear Off Black hose instead of Jet Black (seen here)

though. I want the shoes to show up a bit more.

I'll iron the dress too, of course!

I really was not satisfied with any of my options for the

banquet, and after talking with a higher up about what I

SHOULD be wearing, she suggested I dress more like

I'd be going to church instead of a banquet.

And this is what I've come up with:

I can do this with the lace shrug

OR:
with a velvet blazer.

I think the shrug is better suited and will be more
comfortable for me.
I'm on a hunt for a girdle and a decent bra
to prevent my boobs from looking so large
in this dress, but please bear in mind that I am
presently on my period and they appear larger
than normal due to that. I'm not even making excuses.
They are literally larger and swollen right now and will
be back to their normal size by Convention time.

i might not wear the hose, however.

will this work for the banquet?

lace shrug or velvet jacket??
