On
Friday, it was my university summerball and I was so excited to head back to
Canterbury to see all of my friends and get all dressed up in a pretty
little blue dress! Me, Steffy and April, 2 of my housemates for next year
started getting ready early - my room was covered with make up and hair products
naturally! We then headed out to Dan's house to have a couple of drinks with
them before making our way to predrinks. It was so lovely to see everyone and
catch up, as everyone has been so busy with exams and placement!
I have decided to do an OOTD for what us three girls wore as I thought you might like to see some of the things a couple of people wore. It is one of my favourite things at a ball to see what everyone decides to wear!
I apologise for the photos - we chose to pose by the only nice thing in
Dan's garden - a tiny rose. Unfortunately their garden isn't too picture
perfect but I was hoping you'd all be too interested in our outfits (fingers
crossed!!)
My dress is from ASOS
and it has the most gorgeous back! I unfortunately didn't get a clear
photo of this but it was pretty much backless with a few straps making
criss-crosses. I absolutely loved the colour of the dress and it was so simple
which I also loved. My shoes were from Schuh - forever a girl who loves
sparkle! My ring is from Swarovksi, my bracelet is links and my earrings are
from a little shop called Corner Cupboard in the town that I live in!
Meet April! April's
shoes are from office, her dress is from Only, her head jewellery is from
Miss Selfridge and her rings are from H and M.
This is Steffy! Her dress
is from Miss Selfridge, her shoes are from Dune and her bracelet is from
Swarovksi!
They both look
gorgeous! It was so nice to see them again after a couple of weeks and I can’t
wait for next year!
Dan is wearing
trousers and shoes from Topman, his shirt is from Burton, his tie is from River
Island and his tie clip is a family heirloom so we aren't too sure where it is
from but I love it anyway! He looked fab.
April's bag is from Primark and mine is
my Granny's so I have no idea where she got it, but I was pretty impressed with
her for having such a gorgeous bag!!
After predrinks and alot of pictures, we headed across the
road to the campus! It was so nicely laid out, but weird to be in uni when it
was dark and under the influence of alcohol. Me, Dan and my friend Mary weaved
our way in a bit to boogie away to Scouting for Girls! We just danced the night
away for a while, outside by the main stage and then inside too! It was such a
laugh and so nice to be reunited with all of my uni friends. There were roughly
20 of us in total, so it was hard to keep together but it was nice that we had
been able to spend time together at pre drinks.
The ball last year was also when me and Dan became a
couple, so happy anniversary to Dan! We decided in a drunken blur to go on the
Ferris Wheel and I genuinely have no idea why. Both of us hate rides and after
the queue had gone down, I had sobered up a little and I was wetting myself! It
turned out to be pretty fun in the end though…
I had a fantastic night at the summerball, it was a
great way to end the year! I already can't wait for next years.
Have you been to a
school/university summerball this year? Tell me what you wore!
Sounds like a lovely summerball! Absolutely love your dress, it's gorgeous! Your friends look fab too :) happy anniversary to you both! xx
