An Evening Affair

My daughter is a graduating student in high school. In their school, they always had a graduation ball one week before their graduation to get acquainted with other students.

Since I know that this is a formal party, I help my daughter find a gown suited on this occasion. We went to a shopping mall where we can choose a gown and high-heeled shoes. With an evening party, I prefer a black gown with sequins to highlight the neckline of the ball gown. Silver high-heeled shoes with silver pouch surely match her attire. Three hours before the party, I accompanied her at the salon to put make up on her face and also style her hair appropriate with her clothing. I let her wear my pearl necklace and earrings which I think well-matched to her outfit. I am planning to give her gold necklace and earrings on her graduation day.

Parents are also invited to attend on the first part of the party to gaze at the students’ parade. I enjoy watching the different styles and colors of gowns wear by the girls. I was fascinated by their beautiful hair dressers. The boys look gorgeous with their pants and suits. I wonder why we have no graduation ball during our high school days. I am sure that my mother will also be excited to join me in this kind of affair.
