I will never forget the New Year’s ball that we attended. All kinds of people and just about everyone who is anyone in our city was there to attend. After all, welcoming the year twenty ten is a big event. They say, the year of the tiger is a year to welcome, bringing in lots of good cheer and good fortune, and what better way to welcome the year with a great big party.

When we received the invitation, we took pains to prepare. This would be a good chance for my husband to meet several people, and being in the socio-civic group, it would be a good opportunity to be able to talk with people who would be able to make a change and help in pushing all these work and activities for the less fortunate.

With several big names attending, I made sure I was going to attend in style. So I chose a le gala Tony Bowls attire.

When I visited their site, I saw so many glamorous gowns that I wanted to be seen wearing. I had to start with the color motif first.

What would look good in me?

Your usual black elegant gown?

Or should I choose the color that would be the color of the year twenty ten?

Several gowns were on display and I was really excited in picking at each gown that would look best in me. The prices were quite affordable as well. It was a really good choice, in my opinion.

I not only wowed my husband with my attire, but we had a great time during the party.
