Late To The Party

I got to feeling guilty about not letting Mona go to The Polka Dot Closet Dress Form Ball.  I told her she is such a floozy she wouldn't fit in with all those elegant ladies but who am I to judge when she does, after all, depend on me to do her shopping!Thank you, Carol, for hosting all these lovely ladies.  Now I am headed over to peek through the hedge and gawk at the party goers.

I'm so happy you allowed Mona to attend so she doesn't miss out on all the fun. I think she's looking mighty fine in her frilly black and white ensemble. I'm also noticing all the lovely jewels she's wearing. Keep her away from the punch bowl.

Oh, I'm late too -- thank you for reminding me!

Mona fits in very well at the ball. She looks ready to party but not ready to do to anything she shouldn't. :>)

ps I used to have the exact belt.

Ah but arriving fashionably late is THE thing to do! She is lovely in black, white and silver! That belt reminds me of one I used to have too! Have fun at the Ball Mona!

I think Mona looks lovely. I love her magnifying glass around her neck. That is sure to come in hand when she goes "junking". LOL.

What a fun idea. I'll have to check out the other ladies who went!

Mona looks lovely and she and GiGi are having quite the time at the ball. This is such fun. Dancing the night away...

Kathy: Mona looks very lovely and I don't think Mabel thought of her as floozy material at all. She just said she was 'easy' to get to know and thought she had a good time!..Happy Tuesday..Judy

Oh Kathy,
I'm glad Mona was able to make it the ball. By the way love her name. In Spanish this word is sometimes use for a doll...appropriate don't you think? I love it. Thank you for stopping by. It was nice meeting you both...Hee, Hee, Hee.

Hugs and Kisses.
