We were invited - just this Monday - to the John C. Lincoln Gold Ball! So, today I ventured out to find a gown (not just a 'party dress' and YES there is a difference), purse, shoes, and jewelry.
Why is it that we women have to find an entire outfit and men throw on a tux? Will we ever have it that easy? It's like being a bridesmaid... 'nuff said!
Anyway, in a matter of 4 hours (I think that's good!), I found a gown, shoes, purse, jewelry. And, the gown is not your standard black - which is actually what I was looking for - since I DO have the black purse and black shoes and probably could have found jewelry at home too... Nooo, the dress that I liked and actually looks nice, was olive green...imagine, now trying to find shoes and a purse to match! But, I did!! It's a long olive gown, with 1 shoulder of chocolate beading... maybe I'll post a picture after the event.
And, as tradition would have it, I will be getting a pedicure and then my hair 'did' before the Ball (I like saying that)... and T will jump in the shower and be ready...go figure!
But, it's still going to be a great weekend!
