After two weeks of sewing like crazy, Sarah and I finally got my dress done! I absolutely LOVE it! It's a robe a la polonaise in chocolate satin with a cream brocade, and it's lovely. On Friday, my sister Grace and I went over to Sarah's house to get ready for the Vintage Ball. We had the best time getting ready. We then took some photos with Sarah's brother Josh, and headed to the Ball! I don't have any pictures from the Ball, so y'all are going to have to be content with these.
Curling Sarah's hair....and you can kinda see how I did Grace's hair...
Josh, Sarah, me, and Grace.
The back of Sarah's dress....it's sooo lovely!
Grace and I - isn't Grace turning into quite a lovely young lady?
Ta-da! Finished dress!
And the back!
I don't have much to say about the Ball. I did have fun dancing with Josh and his friend Micah because they're like my younger brothers, and we made funny faces at each other throughout the dances! And I was very glad to catch up with a dear friend that I hadn't seen since soccer season in the spring! But I was disappointed because no one asked me to dance....well, at least without being told to. I was bad enough to ask Micah to ask me, and told Josh to! But, overall, it was a good time.
I had to steal these photos from Sarah's mom's facebook, since I don't have a camera of my own anymore and my brother wouldn't let me take his. :( I'm going to take better pictures soon, I promise, and post in more detail about the petticoat and stays and gown.
