Well, so long as what you're wearing are in colours that are just as brilliant! Have fun.

Having read all the comments, Shaanti is right. I hadn't appreciated the importance of the blue dress anyway. I now think a nice pair of dress pants and an attractive but casual top would fit the bill perfectly. Or a good skirt would also fit well.

The peacock blue is national dress for more formal stuff. I am not going to wander around K.L. dressed in that tomorrow…as Shaanti says, that's not me.

Victoria – that sounds a lot like me. Except I am more a 1945 Chevvy, I think.

Oddly enough, I think I am going to enjoy this. A new experience, and I like new experiences!

"I don't do smart casual. Sloppy casual, yes. Or jungle-bashing casual. Or a recycling-sustainability-environmentalist-so-I-wear-clothes-till-they-fade-and-have-holes-in-them casual."

I fully identify with your dress style!
You'll look good in any style!
And ask for a lipstick with a nice flavor!

Wow! That's so cool. I agree with everyone else, the peacock blue dress looked lovely on you. It would be a good choice if it's appropriate.
I hope we'll get to see the photos.

No, no, no…

Don't wear the peacock blue dress. As lovely as it is, you want to let the readers of this magazine know what kind of person you really are. And while I don't know you at all really, I get the teensiest feeling from reading your website that you would be more comfortable wearing something else.

So wear what you feel like wearing!

What's "colorful, smart casual"–is that like "dressy casual"? Anyway, I agree re. the outfit from the shindig the other day (not that you'd want to take my advice on clothing…)–it's colorful and smart and you looked great in it.

And also: ditto on wanting to see the pix (preferably before you eat all the lipstick ;-).

I agree with the suggestions to wear that peacock blue dress, gorgeous in all definitions of the word!

Also, just letting everyone know that I have received my prize (and prized) copy of The Last Stormlord. Signed and personalised by Glenda! Worked out that it was almost two years to the day from when Glenda blogged that I was the winner. Wonder if that is a record wait time for a competition prize?

And yes, there was squealing involved when I opened the package *grin*.

I'm with Karen. It really suited you.

That's fantastic. And bugger smart casual, I think you should wear what you wore to Ramly's bash. You look stunning. The colours are fantastic on you.
