Aspirations

Held on Saturday November 28, 2009, the Crillon Ball was most definitely the highlight of the Parisian and global social scene. A multitude of flawless young women were presented to society and dressed head-to-toe in some of the world's most renowned designers. Among the many heiresses', princesses and socialites was Sea of Shoes blogger Jane Aldridge. I can only imagine what the experience must have been like for Jane, and in case you have yet to decipher the title of this post, my new goal is to someday attend the Crillon Ball. Many people wish to become astronauts or firemen, but all I have to say is, MAKE ME A DEBUTANTE!

P.s. you might want to fetch a paper bag... these young women are literally breathtaking.
