What To Wear to the Opera





Question
Hello. I am going to be attending an opera and I have no idea what I should wear to one since I have never been before. Could you please give me a little advice?

Answer
Hi Stefanie
Lucky you. Opera. mmmm.la la la la!

The opera crowd has a culture all its own, traditional and dressy. No jeans or cotton of course. Many women like to wear their formal wear but it is not necessary or common any more.

What you want to wear is something elegant and conservative. No skimpy cocktail dresses or short skirts. Think about what you would wear to a wedding. I found the perfect dress at Coldwater Creek, they even have earrings to match and also a shawl in the exact color of brown. This is just an example of what I mean about elegant. 

What do you think?

Just go to Coldwatercreek.com and put in H43494 to the search engine to see the dress.

At the bottom of the page you will see some strappy heels in brown. And here is the code to put in for the wrap H91060 and here are some lovely earrings H74324 and of course your bag H91304

Hope this information helps you choose just the right outfit for the occasion.
