New Year's Eve - Oh What A Night!

Luckily for me, I had been invited to a fabulous party on New Year's Eve! Dress code, three course dinner, Champagne and fireworks! Glamorous as h**l!


I got prepared for the evening together with Michael and Fanny, since they were going to the same party, and...well...I practically live in their apartment now...Michael looked very handsome, and Fanny was the belle of the ball - in a dress she had made herself!


I wore my "Ghost dress", as I call it. It's from the early 50s, and I bought it from "Wallflower Vintage".


The skirt is very transparent, so it has to be worn with a fitting petticoat.


The earrings I wore are from the 40s, bought at "Antikt, gammalt och nytt". The bracelet is from the early 1900s, from "Medusa Antik".


In my hair I put this brooch. It's newly made and comes from Kappahl's "Vintage Stories".


As you can see both the host, Albin, and the hostess, Elegy Ellem, were possessed by the Devil, but that just made the party more decadent...


Tifa DeLeone had been part of planning and fixing the party too. Here she is with her boyfriend Joakim!


This is what happens when you have a dress coded party! Me, Fanny, Ellem and Tifa.


The punch and snack table looked great...


...and the punch was really good!


Candles in the wind...


Both me and Tifa wore sparkly shoes. As you should for New Year's!


Ellem preparing the main course...


...And this was the result! Nom, nom...


Red, red wiiiiiiine!!!!


Pretty ladies at the dinner table. Notice how well their dresses match each other, and the food! Well done girls!


Party people!


Tifa and Miss Loulou! The latter one had glued together her latex dress herself! As you can see in this picture now the guests had become obsessed too. It was a hell of a party!


At the stroke of midnight we all went out on the balcony.


The fireworks were great! Michael had brought some small rockets we put in an empty Champagne bottle, lit fire on, and then aimed the bottle away from the balcony. 


Holding it while the rocket flew out of it was a very nice feeling. I understand why men go to war. Shooting is fun!


Michael wasn't so sure about the Champagne though. He would rather have had a Whiskey...


When we arrived at the party we were all standing up. Then we sat down at the tables for a few hours. At the end of the evening we were down at floor level, with our pretty dresses spreading out everywhere. 

I had such a good time it's gonna be difficult to beat next New Year's Eve...If I don't end up celebrating with the same people again of course!

PS. All the good pictures in this post I stole from Ellem's Facebook page. But she had stolen them from the the cameras she found in her apartment the day after New Year's Eve, so I figured it was ok...

Oh, yes! There was a parrot too! - Electra!
