It was a magical night time in Dallas final weekend! The Dallas Symphony Gala is one in every of my favourite occasions of the entire 12 months. This 12 months’s theme was Midnight in Paris and jogged my memory a little bit of my Cinderella ceremonial dinner with its blue and white colour scheme. The projection overlay within the foyer and glowing ten-foot tall Eiffel towers have been breath taking.
The style alone is well worth the ticket. I like seeing everybody dress up of their most interesting! The costume code is black tie and this 12 months I opted for a strapless white ballgown with black appliqué. My jaw dropped once I opened the bundle and noticed it in actual life.
It match me completely as a result of I had it customized made to my measurements at no further prices. Would you imagine me if I instructed you I bought this on Amazon for $150? It’s my second time shopping for a customized ballgown on Amazon (the opposite being my well-known purple costume seen right here) and it did NOT disappoint. I felt like a princess on this costume and I used to be fairly snug all night time due to the built-in bra and lace-up again. Order this gorgeous costume with my affiliate code right here. (It is available in tons of colours!)
Enjoyable truth: DSO gives a present and after occasion ticket every year that’s a lot extra inexpensive than the total dinner ticket. That’s what I do yearly! My pal Jessica and I ate dinner throughout the road at La Stella earlier than the present. We break up an enormous, scrumptious inexperienced salad and I ate each chew of my gnocchi with spicy vodka sauce. Oh my gosh, this has bought to be top-of-the-line issues I’ve ever had at La Stella.
Opera singer Isabel Leonard blew us away along with her cheeky efficiency. She may flip anybody into an opera fan! The present was dreamy and chic and the after occasion started promptly after. We discovered a desk close to the dessert buffet and tucked in to one in every of my favourite gala traditions: espresso! The DSO Gala espresso bar is such a deal with. This 12 months they even had rock sweet stirrers similar to Disneyland. So cute!
After catching our second wind through espresso and macarons, Jessica and I danced the night time away. I couldn’t assist however discover that it was virtually solely ladies on the dance flooring so I go away you with this: fellas, dance together with your girls! Or maybe girls have to make it a women night time!
It’s simple to see why that is one in every of my favourite nights of the 12 months. See you in 2024!
Dance the night time away,
