We are Charity Ball newbies, so my better half is already wondering what makes an appropriate outfit for the fairer of the species. Are you offering style hints??

Hardly! I'm no fashion icon! Just I'm going to wear something related to the Theme for sure, just a little let's sayyyy 'different'... I understand the girlies wear nice Ball Gowns etc however as I've not been to a Ball yet, I can't compare it to what they were wearing last year. I've got some ideas for her if she'd like to PM (Private Mail) me...otherwise there is no surprise! LOL

I'm looking forward to seeing everyone in their finery

Always nice to have a good old excuse to dress up smart and pretend to be refined for the evening until a few bottles of wine are done

It is really nice to see everyone dressed up posh....mind you, come the early hours some people have been known to go and change into their comfy clothes. You know, grubby t-shirts, tracky bottoms and slippers!
