This is the big week!
Im headed to Tampa this week to teach and participate in a weekend long event of Marie Antoinette festivities.
Cassandra VanCuren is the fabulous hostess of Danse Des Fleurs. I know she has worked incredibly hard to make this an unforgettable art workshop event, and Im so honored and thrilled to be a part of it!
One of the weekend festivities is the Grand Ball Saturday night.
Im excited to dress up, step back in time for the evening and play with the girls!!!
Here are a few peeks of my outfit.
My wig. I LOVE!!! It looks like cotton candy.
Forget white powder wig….Im wearing my signature color!
These are a few close up shots of my dress.
Must have jewelry to wear!
This beautiful choker was handmade by my sweet girliefriend Christine Rose Elle
Last but not least…..must have decorative shoes to wear!
These little beauties I found and purchased on Etsy and I altered them to compliment my dress.
I applied little butterflies to the back heel.
Outfits are ready and so are the class kits.
I'll have many photos and much to share when I return.
Until than my friends….I hope you have a fantastic week!
XOXO

OOOooooooooooh Pink Wig !! i have not felt like squealing like this for a long time and of course Marie Antoinette is just my type of thing. I just wish I was attending, but alas I am not.
I can’t wait to follow what you all get up to and don’t forget your petticoats … its all about volume hee hee.
Wow! I just got anxiety checking out what my kit is going to look like!!! i’m so sad I wasn’t able to keep my road trip plan’s. Maybe next time. I wish, I wish with all my heart…… that you have the most amazing time and share your stories with me at Moulin.
Oh Sugar, have the grandest time! Your outfit is perfect, the wig is phenomenal! Boxes almost to pretty to open! I’ll be knee deep in class work, so have a little extra fun for me! I’ll await your pictures with sincere anticipation and a fluttering heart! Smooch to you, Lori

Visit http://www.thecandybuffet.ca to enhance an elaborate theme, or indeed as a standalone feature to set the scene for any event you will have with a candy buffet. It is just gorgeous and it smells & taste so good!
Oh you are going to look fabulous in the outfit! Love that wig! Have a wonderful time
Your outfit really is the most adorable. Those shoes are work of art and the wig, hah, i can’t argue enough of its flaunting details. Have fun and keep in post of those activities you have there.
Oh my…I’ve just found your blog and I absolutely ADORE IT!!! I’m originally from the South, but relocated to Illinois years ago. So many wonderful things I miss about the South – the beauty and fantasy!! Love those beautiful shoes. I’ll definitely be back to visit; have a wonderful day! Sheila
My wife also loves attending those balls that require her to wear costumes and stuff. She gets to use her collection of front lace wigs, which is something that she has accumulated for the past five years. I guess it’s her way of making up to her childhood days when she was deprived of dress up slumber parties. It’s nice to get in touch with your old self once in a while, you know.
Oh, I cannot drool at these pictures long enough. Everyone looks so pretty. It is to die for. The gowns are ravishing!! You did awesome with your ball gown, your wig and shoes… well done to Cassandra, you and Tiffany and anyone involved. This event is mind blowing gorgeous eye candy!!
