Blazer next to dress uniform

KendallR10 · October 2011

Do you think a light grey blazer, a blue skirt and heels would look odd next to the Class As?

firsttimersluck · October 2011

yes.

Depends on where you are wearing it

ggirl2001 · October 2011

It also depends on the color blue for the skirt I think.

LetsHikeToday · October 2011

I love the blazer look (Kristen wigg in bridesmaids) however it would depend on where you wear it.

KendallR10 · October 2011

The blue is true blue. and I'm wearing it to a brunch

firsttimersluck · October 2011

I think the two outfits won't match or compliment each other.
I also think you don't HAVE to match him.

We will be taking pictures together. Could the shirt that I wear under the blazer tie it together?

Posted by KendallR10[/QUOTE]<div>Honestly ditto FTL. You don't need to match. It's not prom. Make sure you wear something that looks great and is classy, that will automatically match him.

LetsHikeToday · October 2011

I also agree with FTL. Wear something that works with a brunch. Who cares if you have pictures together? H and I have pictures together and I'm in sweats and he is in jeans. It doesn't matter.

I really hope this was at a military brunch function as well :o) tehehehe

LetsHikeToday · October 2011

Haha! No military functions yet. I just meant that matching in pictures doesn't matter. :-)

AmandaSC1988 · October 2011

Is this the Christmas Brunch? I would wear something a little bit more holiday-y like a sweater dress...

I don't know, it really depends on the blazer...Pictures would be more helpful

I would probably advise against something like that...

firsttimersluck · October 2011

hahaha I figured Hike... I just thought it was funny :P I just pictured you at brunch next to a coupel colonels in grey sweat pants all "....'sup'... "
tehehehe

KendallR10 · October 2011

This is the one. Idk why they must make the models stand odd. it makes the blazer look funny

Shoulder shrug, yes. Sweats are for gangsters.
You can only give peace signs in yoga pants ;)

Haha. I'll trade you the peace sign for a slight nod of the head.

I think you're over thinking an outfit for a brunch. As long as you two look nice your pictures will be fine

Beachy730 · October 2011

$100 says that this "brunch" is her wedding reception, and that's why there will be pictures.

We're getting married at 5 pm on a thursday. I'm wearing a pink dress. This is the christmas brunch for FI's unit. It is a class A event. They hire someone to do family pictures

SamiJoeB · October 2011

Why don't you attempt to make a friend within your FI's unit to ask these questions to? Katelyn would be the only other person who's familiar with what to wear to a NG Unit Christmas Brunch. For my squadron Christmas Parties, were usually semi-kinda formal.. Guys wore button downs, some ties.. I didn't go last year because it was the night before I got married and I was 4 hours away from base.. The year before that, I wore a sweater dress, tights, and boots. Since its a brunch, I would maybe go sweater and skirt with boots... but seriously since your aparently "not yourself" with us, be yourself with a GF/FI/SO of someone in his unit and ask her.

crownsuperstar · October 2011

I tend to not to try match my H. I am my own person and I want to be seen as that. I cannot think of one picture that we have together were we match. IOk well when we are wearing t-shirt and jeans. I think we dressed a like at Disney and didn't mean to. I was so embarrassed when I got to the lobby and he was wearing a black shirt and jeans as well. Yeah we were that couple but as a mistake. I think it is much better to compliment each other than looking matchy matchy. I agree, after all it is not the prom.

Hike- if you were a true "gansta" you would have pushed one leg of those sweat pants up to your knee. Did you? HAA I just got a mental picture and now I am dying!!! Thanks I needed that this morning!

Sorry I can't help FIs unit was deployed this Christmas and I heard they don't do many social events. I know they don't do a ball

Crown- that's not as gangster anymore. That's now a hipster move. Yup. You heard me. because hipsters ride bikes and you have to rolled up a pant leg so that it doesn't get caught on the kickstand. True story... :P

crownsuperstar · October 2011

First- really? I did not know that changed. Now I feel old. I am leaving to go to amazon and by the latest version of the Urban Dictionary so I can make sure I am up to date on lingo.

I can not be looking a "fool" (is that the right word still) and have my street cred questioned. HAA

firsttimersluck · October 2011

hahah I know crazy, right? It seriously took me a year of college and a confused look to figure it out... Who knew that gangster and hipster could have a common link :P
