The Marine Ball is coming up again.
We bounced from second-hand shop to second-hand shop and eventually ended up at Kilo-max. It's a second-hand place where they weigh the clothes and you pay by the kilo. Pretty great idea. Unfortunately, there were no evening gowns to be found. But! We still had some amazing finds....
I went last year with a few friends, and while it was a good evening, I can have equal amounts of fun without paying so much for a ticket and dress. And then I don't have to wear heels. It's like a triple bonus.
I knew I wasn't planning to attend, but my friends were a bit more on the fence about it. That is until the idea of an 'anti-ball' was proposed. Basically, a ladies night out. Naturally, it was proposed it at a ladies night in where we ate a bunch of foods, talked about clothes, and then played Just Dance on the Xbox for a few hours. ... no high heels involved.
The next morning I joined Bekah and Rorey for some all-you-can-eat waffles at a place we are quickly becoming Saturday regulars. And then we went shopping. The plan was to find cheap dresses and then go to the ball, or the anti-ball.

Ugly. Christmas. Sweaters.
and other adorably cheesy festive wear.
We may not be ready for the ball, or anti-ball, but Christmas time will be fabulous!
