    This definitely falls under the heading of First World Dilemma...
    I'm going to an opera in Wexford at the weekend, but I've no idea what to wear.
    I guess it has to be dark in colour - does it have to be floor-length? Does it have to be black? And do I have to keep my shoulders covered?

    At the moment, the options are:
    1. maxi-length sheath-ish dress in burgundy. spaghetti straps. would wear this with (brown colour, think mouse) fake-fur cape thang tho I'd obvs have to buy a dark shrug, just to keep warm when I take my seat
    2. Just-below-the knee sleeveless "prom-style" dress with silver thread detailing. Again, outside, I'd be teaming it with the fake-fur cape, though it's not ideal. Would I get away with this if I wore black opaque tights?

    I know there'll be people who'll say, "Just wear whatever you feel comforable in!" but I'm too old for people to think it's cute if I turn up in something completely inappropriate but loadsa fake tan and great hair.
    Where do people go when they need something formal like that? Something grown-up?
