Formal Wedding Guest Attire

Today I have a wedding to attend and the dress code is 'Territory Formal' (I live in the Northern Territory of Australia) which according to our Local Government website entails:

Territory Formal

Gentlemen: Dinner suit or dark trousers, long sleeve shirt, bow tie or tuxedo
Ladies: Evening wear

Should be interesting because nowadays most people just don't take into consideration things like etiquette and dress codes - especially when the dress  code is written to make it easier >_<

Since I live in a tropical location I went with a long maxi dress style - something I think can be dressed up to look chic and modern without wearing a satin ball gown (which would defiantly be too dressed up!).

The dress cost $30 and the metal belt cost $10 including postage from eBay (my favourite place to shop) it can sometimes be hit and miss but for $30 I'm willing to take that chance, in this case it was a hit...I hope!
