I though the icon was appropriate.

Well, it's 3:30 which means it's time to start getting ready (ha!) for the ball tonight. All glammed up and no where to go...

Nails are done. Makeup is first up and then going to get my hair all styled. Then back to get dressed and get jeweled up really quickly before the gang arrive for pre-drinks. 3 bottles of Cava chilling in the fridge, I should point out. About the only thing in the fridge at the moment. At least my shelf.

I have spent too much money on tonight, but I will look my very best (I won't look this good againt till my wedding I think) and I have a date. It is always appropriate for that much effort to have an arm to escort you. All very formal you know.

There will be tons of pictures, but probably not till I get back from London on Sunday (yes, going down to the city for the weekend too). I will post the link as soon as possible so you can all see the bling and the dazzle and the disasters. And there will be disasters!

Must go!

I hope you have a wonderful time! Its awesome to have an excuse to get glammed up on occasion. If you get a good one I'd love to see a photo of you ready for evening sometime. <3

Oh gorgeous! You look stunning~ <3 I can't get over how many different styles of dresses and outfits there are. Such a wonderful range! They must have been incredible in person. I'm jealous, it looks like so much fun. :3

It was a lot of fun. The venue was good and dinner was not bad (surprisingly). The music turned out to be great! And there were enough, uh, interesting surprises for the night to keep everyone entertained. (My department is never boring!)

Yeah, stuff from the 18th century, the early 19th, 1920s, 1950s, and then lots of modern. Plus the Indian and Japanese dresses! Even the guys were different! I've never seen men willingly dress up in costume for a ball. ;)
