Dave+Amy Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 I'm not graduating this year but David is on this thursday night I'm not too sure what to wear to the ceremony but I'm aware of the need to look good for photos lol. I've got a hairdresser's appointment to get my hair done up and thinking about wearing a formal knee length dress. What do people wear to graduation ceremonies? What are the expectations? I don't want to go under dressed but at the same time I don't want to be overly dressed either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

firefish Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 My sister graduated last week. She wanted to waer jandals but it specifically says in the bookliet that graduates can't wear jandals :lol: I didn't really notice people being really fancy at the graduation (but it was a BSc one :lol: ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave+Amy Posted May 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 Think you can't get any laid back than BSc's....shame about the no jandle rule I'll actually have to go buy some shoes :lol: :lol: I'd hate to go to an Architechture or Law graduation...my mates in that arena sure don't wear anything under a price threshold :roll: don't see the point wearing a $300 top to uni to impress guys since guys don't have a clue on woman clothing brands lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phoenix44 Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 mm hmm.. they ruined one of the courts last year. did $20,000.00 of damages in 1 nite - flooded kitchens, broke flatscreen tv's... carpets ruined. all quite sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmsmith Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 It'll be freezing outside, so whatever you wear, make sure it's warm. The dress sounds fine, but make sure you wear heels. People our age can't do knee length dresses without looking silly unless we wear awesome shoes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave+Amy Posted May 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 got a good pic of Dave and me from his grad: and lmsmith - it was DAM cold that night, but very enjoyable especially the wines at the end lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave+Amy Posted May 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 He hates the hat lol and he wasn't in the mood for graduation 'cos he doesn't see undergrad as anything important :roll: he sees his grad next year as more proper so he used this year's grad as practise lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanmin4304 Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 If jandels are banned wear thongs. When I was training one of the students was told that a full beard was not becoming so he trimmed it (by 1/8th inch. The same guy was told he had to wear a tie on visits so he did (but no shirt). After that they figured he was a cot case and left him alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
