This is my bosses boss. Plan to attend.

It is an invitation to the GM of the company house for some Christmas thingy. Not the company party but some other party thing. He isn't normally forceful...I kind of like being ordered around.

Take off your clothes, lay down and do what the nice medic tells you.

This isn't the "company" party, there is going to be one of those too. This is a party at the GM's house. What does one wear to a "casual" party at a bosses boss party?

Whatever you pick out, it'll be fine.

I'd say a cocktail dress. Pearls. Non-stiletto shoes. A purse that looks like a purse and not like a lunchpail. You know.

Non-stiletto shoes?

Stilettos are mandatory with cocktail dresses.

BEG....I'd go with black gabardines or velvet slacks or a black pencil skirt...soft dressy sweater or ruffly blouse in red, deep purple, black or cream, maybe with a satiny camisole underneath...definitely high heels with either the slacks or skirt. Go middle of the road....that way you aren't under or overdressed. If you talk to the wife of the immediate boss....ask her what she is wearing...

Don't know what type of jewelry you prefer....I always wear diamond studs, and I have a diamond pendant that I wear most of the time....as far as I'm concerned...diamonds always are appropriate.

It's Cali. Shorts and a polo if you're a guy.

Says who?

Ever hear of shorter heels? Not flat shoes, just shorter heels. Where is it written that stilettos are mandatory with cocktail dresses?

Is that one of those rules that Versace made? Hell, deb, he's dead.

I'm no expert on cocktail dresses or stilettos (I look awful in both of them

) but I'm not convinced that stilettos are "mandatory."

I'm 5'4" on a real tall day.....

Cocktail dress? I'm wearing a 3-3.5 inch spike heel.

Now, if to you a stiletto is a platform shoe with a 5 inch heel....no, I don't wear those.

Me + platform stiletto = broken neck...

I can't wear any heels right now

My ankle is still recovering, and anything but a flat shoe makes it hurt like crazy. I miss my pretty shoes

I do have platform shoes, I like them over the narrow stiletto for the simple fact that there is more surface area to distribute the weight. I heard about some Kenneth Cole shoes that are designed to be comfy... let me get the link, I think the shoes sound amazing.

I've heard the platforms are really comfortable for just the reason you stated. I have some slides that are slight platform ....and they are really comfortable....but me in a platform stiletto....would be sooooo dangerous for me.

I am such a klutz ....I can trip walking barefoot.

The other half has suggested buying me a Pillsbury Dough Boy outfit...
