More Formality

Hair:  Fri.day;  Allison, Happy blond
Gown:  Purple Moon;  Serafina, Pink
Jewelry:  JCNY;  Young Hollywood, Hypergems Bracelets

As we prepared to go to Elegance Ballroom on Easter evening, I decided to do a 180 from my usual slinky gowns in jewel tones and wear something pastel and poof-tastic.

This gown was a stunner and I truly enjoyed wearing it while twirling around the dance floor.  The level of detail in construction, shading and accessories is just awe-inspiring and I’ll definitely be returning to Purple Moon for future formal wear needs.

Its always a pleasure sorting through my SL closet to get all dressed up for a night of romance, especially when I run across a gown this fabulous.  I don’t quite remember when I got this one, but I do remember thinking I should save it for a special occasion.

I was right.  The dress, the shoes, the hair, the makeup, the tux and especially the man all came together for one very magical night of music and dancing at the Elegance BallroomFor the first hour we were there, a DJ played some of the standards you’d expect to hear.  We received a special treat though when one of their singers, Krisie Snowdrop, showed up (with entourage) to entertain us for the next hour.  She had a very lovely voice and an eclectic choice of melodies that provided a very different, but pleasurable ballroom experience.
