I didn’t have to struggle, I didn’t have to pretend, I didn’t have to wear the mask: I had a good time on New Year’s Eve. I am serious, at the beginning I even decided I was not going to wear a dress to be sitting outdoor waiting for what, the end of a year and the start of another one? What with that? but when I saw my mother and my aunt looking totally elegant, I supported the cause and picked the dress. That is what I get for saying I wouldn’t wear it: I challenged the law of attraction and precisely it brought me what I mistakely announced.

I didn’t feel forced to be all dressed up, with a Maxazria collection dress in dark blue, pink and some beige that my aunt sent me from United States and fit just wonderfully, a half hair updo with the curls almost perfectly defined, makeup in blue, light pink, pale beige and some dark brown, dark color lipstick on which is so unusual, gold jewels that I had ages without putting on like the ring with the initial letter of my name and, bronze almost-bared foot high heels. why am I describing instead of showing a picture? easy, I don’t have a camera.

Despite the fact that I groomed without feeling like, the result was amazing and I had some long time without putting some makeup on so I felt kind of weird. The funny thing is that before starting with it, it occured to me to not think of the final look, just apply the eyes shadows according to what was coming out to see what it could be. It was cool doing it that way and it ended up nice; eyes looking big and shocking. No, I was not thinking of shocking anyone but I did without meaning to.

My neighbor told me I was looking pretty, my brother’s girlfriend liked the dress, a friend’s brother told me to keep becoming prettier (that was his new year wish for me) and some guy in the street told me I was the perfect woman for him. My mother also announced she was really looking forward to see me with that dress on and finally the time was at hand.  Thanks dress, you did a good job.

I had a good time and no because I was told I looked pretty, but because I really let go and felt at ease. We shared as family, listened to music and had some beers that were not planned but they simply showed there. It was a genuine happiness feeling I had and the idea is to hold it for ever. I hope I will.
