For most
of us two words come to mind when someone asks how your day was: hectic and
complicated. Anything we can do to simplify our lives is usually welcomed with
open, embracing arms. So when we have a need to get dressed up and celebrate,
we tend to become minimalists. Whether you feel shy about the head turning you
would likely evoke by wearing a red carpet worthy gown or your just not looking
to fuss over a dress all night, you try to get away with wearing the same
non-descrip black cocktail dress in your closet that you've worn to your
last 5 events. We've all done it and we convince ourselves we're being
practical and frugal. Style it with some extra sparkly jewels and all of a
sudden you're decked out... or are you?
Let's take a step out of the daily chaos and mull
it over though. You're invited to an event that the organizer has deemed to be
a very special occasion and worthy of being classified as a ball. They are
letting you know that this is as fancy as it gets. And they've invited you
because they want you to help them celebrate something that is extra special to
them and they are preparing to make a big deal out of it. They don't exactly
care what you wear that night but they want you to join them in the festivities
and feel their passion for just one night. Now how do you feel about wearing
your little black dress for the 6th straight time? Have fun. Go all out. Dress
up and be noticed.

Celebrities wear
floor sweeping gowns, why shouldn't we? Just because it's not practical and it
might never be worn a second time? Buy it, wear it and resell it! Take it to a
local consignment shop or put it on eBay. For one night of glamour, the gown will
be worth it. Just don't forget to take pictures and remember how great it made
you feel.
