1940's White Christmas Ball
The 1940's White Christmas Ball is tonight and Axl and I are going!
I am wearing this vintage navy blue calf length dress:
Here I am (on the far left) wearing said dress (and looking a little Stepford) at my bridal shower.
I have shoes to match but I haven't decided what accessories I'm wearing. I'm thinking I will style my hair similar to this make-your-long-hair-look-short 'do I tried recently:
I might wear a vintage hat but the one I have in navy is out of shape and really needs to be steamed. I suppose I could wear this red capulet hat to add a splash of Christmas color:

He got his hair cut for the ball at Ollie's Barber Shop and, from what I understand, the boys from Ollie's are going to be helping men style up at the ball.
I might thrift Axl a vintage tie to wear tonight while I'm out running errands today. If I can just manage to learn how to dance in the next 10 hours, I might fool everyone into believing I didn't wait until the last minute to prepare!
Yours 'till bobby pins on permanent waves get seasick,
Meteor Vintage
