Christina Goes Cruising: Formal Night

I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday! It's strange how one week without blogging can seem like a lifetime, but it was so nice to enjoy a relaxing trip with family to finish out the year. I will be sharing more trip details in the coming days, but for now I am returning with my first outfit post from the sea. 

Every cruise vacation has at least one formal night scheduled in, and my sister and I never take that attire suggestion lightly. Since we were under Caribbean temperatures, I decided to show some skin in this romper with a plunging v-neck and open back.

For those of you preparing for a NYE night out, I've come with a style tip that made for a seamless formal night in this cutout romper. Sticky bras are the kind of lingerie you forget about until the night you truly need it. Fortunately, Silly b Intimates came around just in time for my cruising adventure. Packaged in the cutest, travel-friendly bag (pictured above) is a 100% silicone nude sticky bra that comes with a front closure clasp for extra support. Previously I've been limited by sticky bras that only last a few hours, but I can guarantee that this one lasts all day and night.

As a result of using Silly b, I was able to wear this skin-baring piece to add some drama to an otherwise simple formal look. I actually loved this look so much that I just ordered another cutout piece for New Years Eve -- stay tuned! What are you planning to wear to ring in 2016?
