The Willow Ball And Happy Birthday to Willow!

 My gown is black denim.

 Shoes a practical high-top sneaker.
 My jewels all of a Navaho flavor.


 My date is my long-time friend old pajamas.  He's a poet and fisherman.  His latest book of poems is  the recently published Drenched Through At Old Age.

 I have brought along my paints, brushes and pallet and will paint your portrait if you like.  Find me in a quiet corner at Willow Manor for a memento of the occasion.

oops I published my outfit early as blogger said I had an error and I wanted to see if it would work! The ball is not until Sunday.

on the other hand I must admit to always being early for everything. and i have a long ride, on horseback. So it'll take a few days.

I love your Gown, your Jewelry and of course, *Opp*! Will meet you in the corner to toast with Champagne. I've *sent* Tess five cases of Krug-Brut 1988 Champagne for her hostess gift!
I will be honoured to have you do my portrait with my dates! I'll be posting my info tonight! (No opera..)

Love,

♥ Robin ♥

This is too funny! :) Going in style I see - a wonderful eclectic blend. Your date looks slightly familiar, maybe he's been "in our dreams." :)
Have FUN :)

Love what you are wearing and your 'date' is yummy. Hope you don't leave your 'slipper' behind, or maybe you should- and meet your prince!

I love how everyone's eyes were diverted to you, when you waltzed into the ballroom at the Manor. You carry yourself with such grace, like you are floating.... a very elegant whisper......

Definitely one of the most refreshing, unique looks this year! My kind of style out here on Oregon's high desert.

Suki, I love all your picks. For the life of me I don't know how you all have the time to do this :-). I know I do not. Have fun though and glad you had a good trip.
