I'm sure you're all wondering where it is I'm going that I'm getting all dressed up?
Well, in the South (and maybe some places in the North) we have what's called Cotillion and every January they present Debutantes.
For our Cotillion, it's really just an opportunity for everyone to look fancy and take advantage of the open bar.
I was a debutante 10 years ago...yes...you're in the company of true Southern royalty (more on that later).
So...you saw the dress...now onto the hair and make-up.
I'm not the best at make-up or hair. I always think I look good when I leave the house, but when I look at pictures of myself later I think I look the same as I would on a Monday at work.
BUT...being that I just hopped aboard the obsession express on Pinterest I have some ideas of what I'd LIKE to look like...atleast the eye portion of my face.
Last year was the first year I actually fixed my hair in a manner that wasn't the same as my "everyday hair."
I got my hair cut on Saturday, but I hope I am still able to do something like this
or this
I don't think i'll be able to do either! I'm not Pink Lou Lou when it comes to hair.
I guess we'll see what happens Saturday night! :)

We have the same thing but we just call it Deb. Its always a blast. I mean...open bar. Yes, please.
I have no makeup or hair skills either. Have fun!
I've heard the word cotillion but never actually known anyone to have one.
