^^^
Long gloves, up-do, elegant but understated jewelry, NO WHITE...black is appropriate.

Have a ball

jeeeeeeeeez. All this formal talk and I want to crawl into my jeans.

All of my cousins and I were asked to be debs and we all declined. It just lost popularity by the time we came of age. There still are two of them held in my city, but very few girls come out any more.

In light of the recently passed "National Coming Out Day"....the phrase "come out" just brought different images in my mind...

I remember how the announcements would read: "Miss Tiffany Holcomb Whitney VanMarkunshtein" escorted by Prince Wolfgang Diefendorf Matterhorn, was presented to society at the 150th Annual Armory Ball last Saturday. During her Coming Out, she wore a floor-length gown in a rainbow of colors... (a little artistic license is allowed)

Well, when I look at old year books from my father's college days, I see terminology that would be taken differently today too. Isn't it fun! I now look at the Gay 90s with a completely different perspective
