After for once remembering to get some photos taken at Nationals yesterday, here is my new dress It was made one of the mums from my dancing school and I absolutely adore it!

I love the bodice, it's gorgeous! The skirt looks a bit small to me, and a bit grey in comparison, but I'm sure that's just the way photos often just don't do dresses justice. Good luck in your dress!

This is lovely. Hope it brings you luck on your dance competitions.

Thank you Yeah, the skirt is black but because of the richness of the velvet bodice, it doesn't look as dark. Also, we were going for a streamline look so we elongated the bodice and a smaller and not so wide skirt. I have to say I'm absolutely in love with it!

I love the applique and the colours look stunning. It's elegant and gorgeous. Good luck in it!

It looks great on you! It's very pretty.

I love the skirt on this dress, it's very streamlined and elegant. Congrats on the new solo

This is kind of random, but what wig are you wearing? I absolutely love it! i like the longer wigs, but I don't want to have cartoonishly full hair.

^MeBee, I was going to ask the exact same question! That wig is so full yet naturally so; I love it!

Thanks for all your kind comments! Sjerose and MeeBee, I'm wearing the Tori Wig by Emerald Key. I agree with you in terms of the fullness and it not being over done. I wore a different full wig previously and it doesn't nearly as nicely as this wig does! I love it!
