Are they too fun/glittery for an event as formal as senior prom? I think they're super cute but I don't want to stick out too much or anything.

A blue and white envelope just arrived in your mailbox. Inside is an invitation to your friend's house warming party next week. She is going to have wine, cheese, hor dours, and entertainment. It's going to be a dazzling event and you know you should dress up, but you have no idea what to wear.

Deciding what to wear to any social event can be overwhelming, especially when you have party favors, decorating, and baking to worry about--in addition to your day-to-day work. Fortunately, an attractive cocktail dress is suitable for many occasions.

If you are looking for versatility, the little black dress is a classic. It's attractive, simple, and stylish. You can wear it to almost any evening occasion, and you can personalize it with high heels, jewelry, and a handbag. And the little black dress can be quite attractive--just think about Julia Roberts in “Pretty Woman,” wear she wears a black cocktail dress with lace trim.

When you are shopping in search of the perfect little black dress, pay attention to the small details (below):

What to Look for in a Little Black Dress:
- Length. The dress should hit at the thinnest part of your leg above the knee.
- Cut. Make sure the dress flatters your body type. The dress should accentuate a woman's curves and waist, but never ever be too tight.
- Fabric. Jersey fabric is comfortable and stretchy, but it may not hold its shape. Invest in a dress with a soft, flattering fabric such as silk or satin.

If you prefer new, trendy styles, try an updated version of the little black dress with a modern touch.

The Little, Black Dress with a Modern Touch:
- Sleeve length: Try a sexy strapless dress. Or, try a dress with long sleeves for the winter-time.
- Tights: Wear patterned tights. Or, wear opaque tights, which are very trendy right now. Note: Opaque tights may dress down an outfit.
- V-shape: Try on dresses with a plunging V in the front to accentuate your attributes. Also, V-shaped backs can be very sexy and sophisticated.
- Lace: A black dress with lace can be very attractive and elegant. If the dress is very detailed, keep your accessories limited and wear classic makeup (red lipstick, mascara, and eye-liner).

Cocktail Dresses:
If you want to avoid black altogether, try on cocktail dresses! Cocktail dresses can be silver, plumb, gold, cream, etcetera. Wearing a stylish, colorful evening dress will make you more memorable, and it is much more festive than black. For the wintertime, try on dresses that are dark red, dark blue, ruby, gold, purple, or emerald green.

Choosing a Cocktail Dress:
To choose a unique, sexy cocktail dress, get an idea of what kinds of dresses exist. A simple online search works well. Consider dresses with lace, patterns, sequins, and satin. One-sleeved dresses and metallic are also popular, so don't shy away from them, Also, look for rich fabrics such as velvet and silk.

If you are unsure what kinds of social events and special occasions call for a cocktail dress, use the suggested guidelines below:

Occasions where a cocktail dress is recommended:
- Cruise ships
- Work-related parties (make sure the dress is knee-length and not too short)
- Semi-formal
- New Years
- Anniversary parties
- Holiday parties
- Charity events
- Dinner at an expensive restaurant

Occasions where a cocktail dress may be worn:
- Prom (cocktail dress designers make great, flirty 2009 prom dresses)
- Class reunions
- Evening weddings
- Dinner parties (ask the host in advance)
- Evenings out (to the theater, the ballet, or the Opera. Note: different parts of the
- United States are more formal or more casual than others)

Events where a cocktail dresses is not recommended:
- Business dinners (know your company's culture)
- Job interviews
- White Tie events
- Quinceanera events (cocktail dresses are different than Quinceanera dresses)

Now you can take a breath, relax, and look forward to your next social event. Once you have the basic black dress and one stylish cocktail dress, you will be set to party all night long.

A limousine is a truly extraordinary car. It is very attention catching, and looks very luxurious from the outside. Many people think that limousines are only for successful executives (the business type). That's no longer true today. Using a limousine service, anyone can have a luxurious car gracing the event. Let's explore some of these events that you may consider renting a limousine.

Formal corporate events.

Of course, this is the most obvious type of event that you would expect to see a limousine. If you are having an important corporate event, you need to think about the VIPs that are arriving. The key here is not to "show off" with an limousine. A limousine is rented to provide a positive experience for the VIPs. For example, let's say you are expecting a VIP to fly in to attend the event in a private jet. You may then make arrangements to have the limousine pick up your guest at the air field. In other words, the limousine is a sign of your hospitality.

Wedding events.

Weddings happen once in a lifetime. That's why many couples are willing to spend thousands of dollars to make this an unforgettable event. If the wedding is being held at a luxurious venue (like a grand ballroom in a hotel), then it's only right to match the venue with an equally luxurious looking car. Rent a limo and arrive in style!

School prom events.

Prom nights are major events because they mark a milestone in a young person's life. If you are attending a prom event, you want to make sure that nothing spoils your night. Being all dressed up, you would want someone to be able to chauffeur you to the event. Be sure to book your limousine early to avoid disappointment. The limousine will arrive at a designated time, and pick you up. You can sit and relax at the back of the car while you are traveling, and arrive at the destination in a good mood.

Attending sports games.

A sports event is also a social event. It's likely that you are attending a sports game with your family and friends. Sometimes, traveling to the game venue can be a hassle. Driving in traffic congested cities can be stressful. You can turn the situation around by hiring a limousine. The limousine comes with a driver. And like all other events, all you have to do is to specify the time and pick up destination. The car will arrive on time to pick you and your friends up.

Traveling in a limousine is different from traveling in an ordinary automobile. The passenger seats are incredibly spacious, and you can even look forward to enjoying some refreshments. Time always seem to fly when you are having a good time. As you are chatting and drinking with your friends at the back of the car, you will soon realize that you have arrived at your destination!
