A friend of mine was going to have a tiny Lucia celebration this weekend. Since Lucia clothes are traditionally white, she said the theme would be white. “Sure” I said while desperately trying to remember the last time I wore something white that wasn’t a shirt. Luckily, the dress I wore when I graduated school (at age 18, so that was like… 7 years ago? Crikey, counting years made me feel old) is adorable and still fits me, and I managed to find it. 
Unfortunately (?) it turned out that I wasn’t the only one having problems finding an outfit in white, so the theme was cancelled and everyone was said to dress in whichever colour they preferred.
That’d all have been lovely unless my friend hadn’t forgotten to tell me. 
I’m so very thankful it was just a colour theme and not a costume party.
So I’m making a mental note to wait that long before wearing white again, because some of my friends reactions were priceless.
And I actually wrote this post a few days ago, but I… forgot to press “publish”. Go me? ^^; Also, thanks for the lovely compliments on the layout. It makes me very happy!
