For formal parties, opt for elegant clothing such as a dress or pantsuit for women and a suit or dress shirt with trousers for men. If it's a casual party, you can be more relaxed with your outfit choices, such as wearing a summer dress or khaki pants with a collared shirt.

I usually dress for dinner, but they don't have to be completely different outfits for each evening. Usually a long skirt and a pair of dress pants, and 2 or 3 dressy tops (which are incredibly small when rolled) will do me for a week or 10-day cruise. For your 4-nighter, 1 or 2 evening outfits will be fine.

Dressy shoesIt's a good idea to bring just one pair of dress shoes that can go with your outfits for formal nights. I like to bring a pair of gold strappy dress shoes, as they look fabulous with every color of dress (black, white, navy ect).
