How to Dress for a Yacht Party

If you're lucky enough to get an invitation to a yacht party, you'll want to look, without really trying of course, casually chic and incredibly rich. Since boat parties are usually held in the warmer months, or if you're in a location where it's summer year round, you can be a bit more playful in your dressing. You'll still need to get that classy boating look. Read on to learn how to dress for a yacht party.

Instructions

1. Take into consideration the time of day when planning your outfit. A day on the water with swimming and playing on the jet skis, calls for more casual clothes. Your swimsuit may be your most important ensemble. Don't reveal too much, and make sure you have a drop-dead gorgeous cover up. A sarong can be a good choice, and it hides many figure flaws.

2. Wear nice shorts or a cute sundress if you're not into getting wet. Precious flip-flops, fun jewelery and a wide-brimmed hat will complete your yachting ensemble. Don't forget those trendy sunglasses.

3. Get a manicure and pedicure. This is a party where you'll want all 20 nails to look fantastic.

4. Don perfectly fitted white pants and a metallic tank for a casual nighttime affair. Great jewelery, trendy shoes and a stand-out bag will make your pants and tank more special.

5. Choose a smashing cocktail dress for a dressy evening event. But leave off the feathers and sequins. A simple silk slip dress is always appropriate. Shop the cruise wear lines for inspiration.

6. Ask your hostess if you are confused about what you should wear. If you follow her lead, you'll be fine.
