I bought the least practical things ever. I also had a pile of great day dresses and separates but I never went back for them. I hope a few of them are still there when I go back.
1960s sheer bright lemon yellow maxi dress - new years in Vegas, right? It's not sequins - it's ribbon with iridescent tinsel woven in. With heavy black undergarments it's very good. Fits just right and the ruffle collar stands up. Once it's been cleaned it'll be even brighter.
1970s day-glo polyester halter maxi. The bust has rubber cup inserts that have hardened so I have to replace them, but this thing looks great on, especially with the super-blond hair.
and an early 60s silk satin party dress - handmade really well.
All boned and wired and fits me perfectly. It has some stains, but that just means I can wear it and not worry about it. I like to pretend stains just happened. ooops.

can't wait to see pics of the yellow one. and the dayglo maxi seems perfect for yr new residence in FLA.
Wish I could have worn the yellow NYE, but navigating the crowd with my camera was enough to worry about. Next year!
