I recently had my Summer Ball, which is like Prom but for after College or Sixth Form, so I thought I'd share some of the pictures I took and which dress I wore etc. I had an absolute nightmare selecting a dress, I just wasn't sure how dressy it needed to be-as it turned out is was a very mixed bag of dresses-. I originally chose a floral blank and white high-neck skater dress from New Look, which I loved, but I just thought it was too simple and not anywhere near dressy enough. So I went shopping and ended up getting this mint high-low chiffon dress from Forever 21 and it was just perfect!
'Not a great pose from me'.
I kept my make-up fairly plain, just to be elegant and also as it was a long night, I didn't want some elaborate eye make-up slipping down my face! And for my hair, I pinned it half back as I wanted an up-do but I also wanted her around my face. I kept the jewellery gold as the buckle on the belt was also gold, plus I just prefer gold jewellery. My cuff is from New Look and the necklace is from Forever 21. Unfortunately I didn't get a good shot of the shoes but they were a 6 inch beige pair of patent brogue-esk and I loved them!
It was a lovely evening and very sad as most of the people there I will probably not see again, so it was really nice to have a last evening. Here are just a couple of pictures from the night, the other dresses were just lovely too!
Hope you are all well and I will speak to you soon,

I'm glad you had a great time, I don't think we had one of these when I left six form, there was one after GCSEs though.
