The annual Christmas ball for JD Williams saw a 'royal do' at the Palace Hotel none the less...complete with an appearance from the 'Queen' (and one of her beefeaters...ooo er). The Palace was the perfect setting for the ball and everyone donned their finery for the occasion.
We were welcomed with champagne and cranberry, which was delicious
then there was a festive spread of goats' cheese terrine, beef and
seasonal veg, topped off with white chocolate and gingerbread
cheesecake....however, we all found the free bar much more tasty!
All the girls were the belle of the ball, each with our own style, which
made for a great array of trends. I opted for the Gothic, leather
trend as seen in Vogue and other fashion magazines throughout 2012. Some went for striking cobalt blue and in the words of Vogue (and Meryl Streep) this is a carefully selected hue much loved by designers and a regular on the catwalk.
The rest went for classic black...an all time favourite and ever so reliable,
like myself some dazzled in deep plum but I put my fashion foot wrong
when I forgot my plum lipstick so has to rock the nude vibe instead, a
mistake I could not believe was my own!! Of course there were some
festive dresses all in sparkles and resembling the Christmas fairy, cream and jewelled and ever so elegant.
The fun began in the photo booth complete with dress up
accessories...all our fashion credentials went out the window as we
transformed to our true, silly selves! I have to say some of the
disguises were ace and quite well put together but the giant wig has to
be the winner!!
So whilst the doo was a royal one, we all had a right good knees up and danced the night away at the Royal Palace. There were a few Sleeping Beauties amongst us that could not last the night, but no Cinderella was left without a Prince and we all lived on through the night, dancing happily ever after.....
