1961. I was thirteen years old and I was dressed up and ready to go to the Winter dance at Central Junior High. I had a good time at the Fall dance and I wanted to go to another one. Maybe this time a boy would ask me to dance. My mother made this dress for me. The bodice was made from red velveteen and the attached skirt and the wide tie belt were made from satin brocade in a lovely winter white color. I wore my red high heels. My hair was perfectly combed and sprayed. This picture captured the moments in my parents house before I left for the dance. I don't think I danced with a boy at this dance either but I still had fun hanging out with my friends. In honor of Velentines Day I give you this young girl with a hopeful heart all dressed up for the big dance. Hugs.
