Beating a Dead Horse, a.k.a. What to Wear?!?!?

[PirateWife]

Since there haven't been enough threads about what to wear during dinner (clothes, yes I know), I have a question.

On the seven day cruise, I noticed that the navigators indicate what type of dress is encouraged per evening. You'd think this would be self-explanatory, but I have a year-old child, and very little in the way of brains these days. So...what if you are at Lumiere's on a "Casual" night? Should gentlemen still wear jackets, or is it truly casual (polos and khakis)? So confused...

Thanks!!

You won't be out of place with either choice.

PirateWife, wear whatever you, or DH, or DC, will be comfortable wearing .
You'll see responses for both sides of the argument, the way DW and I figure it, on a casual night most will be casual (khakis and a polo) and on a formal night most will dress up and we pack comfortably for both. We also like being able to dress up on vacation since it's not something we do every night @ home.
Remember, you're on vacation, so have fun and be comfy.

Amen on that "have fun and be comfy" thing. In fact, that is going to be my new motto for every day!

Thank you both! I think I'm going to make DH wear a tie and jacket...he looks so verrry nice!

Lumiere's on casual night...definately no jacket.

Khaki's and a polo shirt all nights except semi formal and formal.

Have fun!

Packing Tip for the guys in your life:

If and ONLY IF the weather is not too hot and not too humid - the nights you wear a polo to dinner, the next day you can wear the same shirt (if you didn't get it to pitted/stinky partying the night before). You should be able to pack 3 or 4 less shirts (therefor less stuff in the suitcase).

Don't try this during July August and probably Sept. because of the heat/humidity. When we go during that time period we take twice as many clothes because you can really go through them fast.

Great Idea.
