Welcome to the forum, :) - 00494d19, Jul 28, 2011
Except for the missing accents, this seems great. The use of "tú" would be for emphasis - I'm wearing this, what are YOU wearing - otherwise you wouldn't use it. :) - Jeremias, Jul 28, 2011
Thanks guys! And yes, I do need to remember accents. >.< I forget them on paper all the time as well. - okunioichichan, Jul 28, 2011

Yes, perfect, you need to use accents though.

Why is the 'tú' needed here? - SpanishPal, Jul 28, 2011

That's perfect except you need the "a" before ponerte... :) - Jeremias, Jul 28, 2011

Are you trying to say, "What clothes are you wearing to the party?"
I'm still a beginner, but this is what I would say, "¿Qué estás llevando a la fiesta?" (Please correct me if this is wrong).

sorry, sonrisita, his phrase was perfect, the present continuos is N E V E R used to express future - 00494d19, Jul 28, 2011
Ok, that makes sense, gracias :) How about "¿Qué vas a llevar a la fiesta?"...would that work? - SonrisaDelSol, Jul 28, 2011
Sure, but it doesn't quite say the same thing, and okuni was practicing reflexive verb constructions... :) - pesta, Jul 28, 2011
Agh, I wonder when I'm going to start getting these things right >.< - SonrisaDelSol, Jul 28, 2011
