Wonderful, sounds like an amazing and festive time :)) I would definitely go if I was around there too ! I love events like this. Hope you have a gorgeous day doll xx
ReplyDeleteThis looks like a whole lot of fun to me Miss Meadows. All of the performers look great and it all sounds so risqué and interesting I feel like I'd love to go. It's awesome that over in Stockholm you get cool events like this, I'm pretty envious haha because I really would like to attend a burlesque show.
