Thanks to the help of YLF forum members, I have attended two black tie events this week and felt comfortable and happy in what I wore. The new magenta heels have been sort of comfortable. After a few hours of dancing on the dance floor, I must admit to being happy to kick them off, but they definitely are a good purchase for me.

So as promised, here are the photos. I actually found this little box clutch and loved it - so the holograph bag will be for the very fun Boobalicious Ball (Breast cancer charity ball). This bag fits the essentials and is pretty on the table.

So hopefully I will go to more balls or black tie events shortly!

Photo 1 - black and silver knit dress - worn to a black tie dinner
Photo 2 - dress without feather bolero
Photo 3 - dress worn to work ball (lots of dancing in this one)
Photo 4 - dress without feather bolero, I tied a magenta ribbon on my waist to tie in the shoes and wore pink glitter earrings both times.

Thanks for the help with accessories. So nice to know I have my stylish friends to call upon when needing to dress up.
