Finding the Right Dress For a Holiday Ball

After days and days of going through pictures of dresses to wear to the

Court of Six Flags Holiday Ball at the Victoria Country Club, I have

finally found the dress I want ...

  

And here it is.  It is the same Ann Taylor dress that Kate Hudson

wore to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation Hot Pink Party

last April in New York City.

Here is Kate in the dress.  

I think this one will work for me.  I am petite and slim and I like to

keep my style sleek so that it does not overwhelm me.  Mom thinks I should

wear my shoulder length blonde hair up, but I think I will wear it down

as Kate did.  However, I would wear it up if I had chosen this other

Ann Taylor dress.

I almost went with this dress, and still love it, but I have other strapless dresses 

and my legs are really my best feature.  I am tempted to get this one too

since they are both specially priced right now, but really how many 

black tie events to I get invited to???

I plan on keeping the jewelry very simple.  I have a large vintage rhinestone

cuff and I will look for some knock out earrings.  Oh and shoes ~ I need to

find a great pair of shoes too.  At the moment I don't look the least bit

sophisticated or elegant.  I am still wearing my work out sweats from

this morning's work out :-)  I am pre-tweaked!

What's It Wednesday

Bentley are you excited about seeing your mama and daddy

all dressed up in black tie attire?  Lately you have only been

seeing mama in shorts and tee shirts.  I know.

Big Texas Hugs,

Susan and Bentley
