A few pics of the green & gold dress

[mandie_rw]

I lifted a few photos others took at the Card Party on Saturday, just so those of you who weren't there can see a bit of the dress. And more importantly, the Party. Candles! Other people's pretty costumes! Food! Punch! Champagne!

This one from jennylafleur is my favorite (clearly. hello new icon!). Unfortunately one Sleevil is showing, but you can also see a bit of the border at the hem, which I oh-so-artfully draped at my feet (and then stood on when I went to get up). And my hair came out pretty well - despite my usual method of pin-pin-pin-add fake hair-pin-pin-pin IT'S DONE!


What are trumps, again? Hearts, Miss Wood, hearts! (And sometimes diamonds.)


And a couple by isabelladangelo...I like this mirror shot of quite a few of the party!




And attempting to chat with madamekat on the laptop you can't see...apparently I become deaf-ish after a certain number of glasses of punch and champagne...

Your new dress it so beautiful! And yes, the first picture is so perfect. No sleevil to be detected.

Thank you! An additional perk to candlelight events - hard to distinguish sleevils. ;)

So lovely!

Until I noticed the woman to your right with modern glasses and the window blinds, I though this was a screen shot from a movie.
