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:

Axl is going to wear the suit he wore for our wedding:

     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,

It was so lovely to see you again! You looked fantastic.

I am not sure if you'd be interested but a bunch of the girls from the ball will be having a get together December 16th downtown.
