@rakski @Mensch Yes, the hair colour has changed a bit. In a few more years, it will match the dress!

You already looked quite fashionable at that time

You remind me of Audrey Hepburn who was also a very elegant lady

@JudyEv I read the comments and then I realized someone said that before me. I thought I was the first one to say it but I was wrong

You look nice. I have never actually been to a formal dance. I did not go to my prom although I could have. I should have as I ended up breaking my wrist that night..

@snowy22315 I'm sorry you broke your wrist. I never had that excuse on why I did not go to the prom or any other dance, either.
