Black Tie, A.K.A Formal = Old Hollywood Glamour, A Tea or Floor length Gown, a dramatic necklace or Oscar worthy earrings ( but not both) an evening bag or a metallic clutch (think) Judith Leiber, and a high but comfortable stiletto ( no one will see them anyway) he-he, for hair I would do a soft chignon top knot or low base, if you need examples check out my Shelli Mosley blog or my folliclesandfashion Instagram :-) P.S this is my blog and totally my style, so if u don't agree... I Don't Care
