Summer Ball

It was my DH's work Summer Ball a couple of weekends ago. It has been raining almost continuously since then so I haven't been able to post a bracelet picture however there was a short sunny spell today so I ran outside with the camera!

I wore this dress:



And made this bracelet to go with it:



The Beach bead and Azure bubbles are new (part of my present to myself for losing 50lbs in weight and also you have to have the right accesories don't you?).

I'm sure some of you will be wondering what shoes I wore. It was this pair of Courtesan Bar in Stone by Irregular Choice:



I had intended to do a lovely comparison picture of my three very different Azure Bubbles but the heavens opened after I took the bracelet shot so I'll have to leave it for another day!

Looks like you where the Bell of the Ball!
Gorgeous dress, beautiful bracelet combo and I love the shoes.
And congratulations on your weight loss...

I am sure you looked radiant. 50lbs is definietly worth celebrating.

Wow! 50lbs is some achievement! Love the shoes and the dress, you must have looked stunning.

OK Cinderella! Lovely clothes and lovely combo, well matched! The bracelet will do as a beach combo as well.

I love all 3..absolutely gorgeous..now i 'need' beach.

Well done on your weight loss....very, very impressive...

I LOVE your shoes! They are gorgeous. Very proud of you for losing the weight. I know how hard it is to stay on track w/ losing weight.

Well said ....... You must have looked stunning

Gorgeous dress and beautiful bracelet. And looking at your awesome
shoes I really wish I could walk in high heels

Congrats on your weight loss !

fabulous dress! where did you find such a beauty?

Wow, you must have looked amazing MM!

Applauding loudly.

You work so hard for the present to yourself - you earn it! The bracelet itself is beautiful, but in combo with the dress and that incredible shoes you should have been the star of that Ball.

Increadible shoes - even diverted my attention from your lovely bracelet.

MM, congratulations on your weight loss! You certainly are so deserving of your gorgeous dress, shoes, and bracelet. Bet you were the most beautiful there.

Thank you everyone on your very kind comments. I did feel pretty gorgeous at the ball!

@Brightonbelle you are so lucky to live near their Flagship store. I would be much poorer if I had an actual shop full of them by me.

@Dorabella The dress was from Monsoon.

Did you have fun? You certainly must have looked amazing.

I've never even seen shoes like that--they are beautiful.
