A Night Out

Well, it's the season again for Military Balls! We have a ball coming up in December and I always enjoy looking for a dress. Last year I rented a dress from Rent The Runway and I had a great experience. I have found a few that I like, I want something different and outside of my comfort zone. 

These are the dresses I am looking at right now and I love how unique and different they all are. I got a lot of compliments on my dress last year and I would love to top it. Our ball is at a hotel about an hour an away so it will be a nice overnight date night with Kyle. My Dad is going to be here to stay with E for us.






I have already reserved one of these dresses but I'm going to wait to share which one until I know for sure. I can be pretty indecisive so I may change my mind after a while haha. I know there are some people that say wearing a short dress to a military ball isn't the best thing to do but I've seen several people do it and I've done it before. 

I can't wait to get dressed up and enjoy a night out. 

Do you enjoy getting dressed up for special events?

  2. I like one and three!! I have done short dresses too, I think they are cute when done right, if you know what I mean ;) I am kind of glad we don't have a ball to go to this year, because I always want to top the year before, and that is just exhausting LOL!

  3. They're all so pretty! I was thinking of using Rent the Runway for my best friend's bachelorette party - we're planning a dressy dinner out!

  5. I have a tea-length dress that I'll probably end up wearing to our ball... whenever it is. They've changed the date at least 5 times now.

  6. Tough decision! I like the colors and the uniqueness of #1. I admit I've had my eye on #3 for awhile. I've worn short (knee length) twice and those are the times I've been most comfortable. I think you have to keep a level of formality when you wear short with your accessories and shoes. You always pick great dresses and lot awesome. You really do!

  8. Oh this will be such a special night! I love all of the dresses, and I think any will work for a ball! I would probably go with #2 because that's just my style, but I always think that the most important thing is that you love your dress and you're comfortable in it. I used Rent the Runway for the submarine ball two years ago and I loved it because I was able to wear a dress I normally wouldn't wear! I love military balls.

  9. I wish that I could still get dressed up for something fancy like a ball! In school we were lucky enough to have a few formals, and I loved it! All of your choices are so beautiful, and you're going to look great in whatever you choose! I bet that it'll be nice to get away for a night too!

  10. I LOVE the bottom dress. I have a ball in January. Ugh. Haven't even considered what to wear...

  11. These are all so pretty, I don't think I can pick a favorite! You will look beautiful in all of them! So exciting to have something fancy to look forward to!

  12. #1 is my favorite, because I feel like it would be so flattering! You have such muscular/pretty shoulders (which sounds really weird when I say it out loud...LOL!), but I really think you would be stunning in it!

  13. Ooh, my vote is for number one!! I can't wait to see which one you picked out!! But number 3 is super cute as well!! Actually, they all are.. xx

  14. They're all so pretty! Sounds like you've got a fun night lined up ahead of you. I'm thinking of renting a dress for my work christmas party, I just can't face shopping and I'm supposed to be getting rid of my clothes... I wear party dresses so rarely that it really doesn't make sense to buy one.

  15. I dont think the length matters at all if it's a classy dress. Hoping you hav a great time!

  18. They are all so pretty.

    I don't like to go personally, because I'm an introvert. I also hate getting dressed up. I'm all about comfort ;)
