I cannot believe I am going to post these for all the world to see, or that it was my idea. I guess sometimes I speak before I think! But yeah, high school was a time of interesting clothing choices for me. These ball photos are the perfect example of that!
The top is a photo from my high school's 7th form ball. I had just returned from a year in the Netherlands and decided not to return to school, but somehow was allowed to go to the ball. I wish I hadn't! I wore a hideous strapless (not a good look for me), beige (and again..) short dress with pink high top chucks and, for some reason, bumble bee antennae. Let's say it was a strange time in my life.
(Also, hehehe at Abraham's long hair!)
The middle is our 6th form ball. I made the skirt in sewing class, simply adored the sneakers and lived in that Glassons top. This is my favourite outfit. Man, I miss those sneakers so bad.
The bottom was in 5th form. I opted not to go to my schools ball, and went to my boyfriend-at-the-time's 7th form ball at the other high school instead. The dress was made terribly by the local dress maker (the bodice hardly fit and was all stretched and out of shape!) but I still love the design. Also, it was Summer and I danced too much before the photos were taken and ended up looking like I was completely wasted in all of them!
Now, to redeem myself after that, I decided to take normal WR photos this week too. This is me on Sunday, going to Abraham's work lunch.
Dress is from an op shop in Te Puke, Belt from the Sallies, tights from Farmers and flats from the Warehouse.
I love this nail polish colour that my friend Philly got me for my birthday, but it is always chipped beyond belief after the first day. I use a top coat but does anyone have any other suggestions to make it last longer?
