The Charity Ball is Western’s biggest formal event that engages student’s in a fabulous night out in support of a great cause. This year’s annual Charity Ball theme is ‘Glitter and Frost’ and like always the Charity Ball has provided their very own lookbook (http://charityball.ca/lookbook.html) to help you figure out the perfect outfit. But, if you’re still stuck on what to wear, here are a few ideas of where to get the perfect attire for an amazing night:
If you’re in the downtown London area, check out:
The ‘Angela” From Lolita
- Lovesick – This shop had a lot of vintage clothing items ranging from dresses, to shoes, to accessories. Lovesick is a local London store found on 723 Richmond St. with reasonable prices for fantastic one-of-a-kind pieces!
- Lolita – Also found on Richmond, is a local shop that has a variety of unique and beautiful pieces. If you want to match this year’s theme then check out the TFNC collection which includes a lot of sequin and glitter pieces.
If you happen to be at Masonville, keep your eye out for:
- Le Chateau – Check -out The Little Black Dress collection at Le Chateau. Nothing says elegant like the perfect little black dress matched with a thick silver necklace or pearls for a more classic look. A personal favorite is the Bloused Bodice Cocktail dress – a little black dress with a small silver and glitzy belt, match with some sparkly pumps to pull together that perfect mix of Glitter and Frost.
- Guess – While you’re at Masonville, check out Guess for a beautiful Gina Half- Sleeve Lace Dress. The Ellie Dress is also a fantastic piece – the champagne coloured dress continues to prove its elegance when matched with a nude or glitter heel.
- H&M – For a more casual style dress
- Jacob – for a classic black lace evening dress or a simple yet elegant empire waist dress
These stores are guaranteed to inspire your inner red carpet celebrity. Glamour isn’t just reserved for the rich and famous – show off how fabulous you are in your new dress. See you at Charity Ball!
