FFFWeek Style: Ralph Lauren White Goddess Dress

I finally got to attend the legendary Full Figured Fashion Week Curves at Sea All White Cruise in New York last month. And it definitely lived up to the hype! So many gorgeous women dressed in ethereal and bright white in every shade and silhouette. Curvy goddesses descending on a yacht -- to dance the night away! They should have named this cruise boat Mount Olympus!

This dress was actually a last minute substitution. The dress I had planned to wear fell through and I had to fit in an emergency shopping trip during one free afternoon. I went to the Macy's that is actually the biggest store in the world--it takes up a full city block! I felt like there had to be something in their plus size section -- which has one of the biggest selections I've ever seen. However, I came up empty. As a last ditch effort, I took a cruise through the regular size formal section and found this Ralph Lauren Dress on clearance that was a size 14. I took a chance and tried it on...and it fit! A little tight, and we had a definite VBL situation...but it worked and I felt glamorous and ready to party!

Gold accessories all the way -- the chunky gold necklace and bracelets set off the with perfectly! And I got to hang with these amazing ladies all night -- Amanda from Latest Wrinkle and Lisa from Mustang Sally Two. SO CUTE!




 I loved the back of this dress, which had draping that started at the one shoulder and gently fluttered in the breeze.

 The night skyline was my favorite! It was so beautiful!



Already thinking about next year's boat cruise!
