A Glamorous Evening

The invites to fancy dinners, posh galas, and other spectacular events just pour in these days... NOT!!!  So when I was invited to attend a gala in support of the preservation of the Reading Terminal Market, I was SO in!  I had a little over 24 hours to prepare - dress, shoes, accessories, nails, hair do, clutch, etc - OH MY!!

The event was great; Reading Terminal Market was completely transformed for the evening.  The lighting was dim, the usual vibrant colors from vendor stands were muted from the darkness of the night, with the action taking place on the dance floor with tunes flowing from the live band on stage.  The bar was crowded with people huddled around sipping cocktails and mingling.  

The best part of the evening was running into an acquaintance and local artist who was hired to draw people at the gala.  Her work is amazing and I feel so lucky to have been "captured" by her hand in her medium.
