[@christinamartin2094]

Thank you !!

[@TheModernLady]

You’re welcome, Christina! 😊 Thank you for watching!

[@magalicastillo2254]

Is formal chic attire the same as black tie? Can I wear a long black dress? Yes no idk? Help me plz

[@arnoldtabor3767]

I'm going to a conservative party gala reception, hopefully if I can get my ticket upgraded ... Wouldn't mind as a man to have a few pointers for British formal events 😅I was thinking navy suit with a light blue shirt

[@DFullerLisa]

Does “Dress your best” mean formal attire?

[@Biedronecqa]

can I wear a dark pink suit?

[@TheModernLady]

Thank you for watching! The dress code for your event would determine if a dark pink suit is appropriate. If you are invited to a formal or black-tie event, I would not suggest the pink suit however if you are invited to a semi-forma event, I think your dark pink suit would be perfectly acceptable! I hope you have fun at your upcoming event!

[@sherrypettye4887]

l love your channel it helps a lot in becoming a 🚺

[@TheModernLady]

+Sherry Pettye Thank you Sherry! You are so sweet! I'm glad you are enjoying the videos! Thank you for watching and subscribing! 💛

[@pheebelikes3500]

Does a nice skirt or pants Like Sequin or Metallic count towards a semi formal event?

[@ATSdriver24]

What if i want to rock a dress instead

[@sherrypettye4887]

Awesome

[@TheModernLady]

[@anhthule1204]

You have a nice tan and pearl teeth.

[@sighhateithere3555]

What if I don’t wanna wear a dress....

[@TheModernLady]

A pant suit or jumpsuit is certainly appropriate if you don’t prefer a floor length dress. Thank you for watching.

[@sighhateithere3555]

The Modern Lady thanks queen😭

[@TheModernLady]

You’re welcome. Pants are a great option to wear!

[@kuniisha]

Your a cute lady but go easy on the eyebrows Sis.

Choclatcotton i like her eyebrows. no need to be mean

[@jamessanders6788]

I absolutely disagree. Her eyebrow make her look stunning and healthy. Naturally beautiful women. Classic, classy and not overdone.
