Unexpectedly, I had a Christmas party to go to. It was held out of town and at a place called Vaudeville. The boyos sell their knives there so it is great for networking. Though the after after parties do feel more like going to a Mardi Gras party!
I was already planning to make a new dress for Christmas dinner at my parents. I had a lovely thrifted piece of silk that I was planning to make up into an A-line dress. Very simple, pretty, comfortable. Party and celebrations but not having to worry about how much you are going to eat. Or, in the case this week, how much you are going to dance.
I moved the plan up and put together this party dress. Black in any form always works at Vaudeville but sequins were really the trend of the evening. Not for me though. The comment was made that I looked lovely and warm. The temperature dropped into the twenties and part of the party is always outside. It is just a crazy party.
So, my dress for Christmas dinner is done. It feels nice on and is pretty. Though the pictures of me in it are not the best. I did try.
Now, let me see if I can figure out how to get everything else done I need to get done. The out of town Christmas party did make all my plans and timings change. It is going to be interesting.
