Spring Break = Over

I'd pay money to see 30gAy present someone to Cotillion.

The Cotillion (a.k.a. debutante) Club in our town is controlled by the graduates of one particular public high school. If you don't go to that school and make friends with a certain crowd, you have to spend your high school years sucking up those girls at that high school. Money (old or new) or class has nothing to do with it. Our daughter went to a private school and didn't want to suck up to them just for the sake of being a debutante. So she wasn't invited to be in the club, yet ironically our air conditioner repairman's daughter was (no money and no class -- just good old country folks). Only one girl from the private school was invited -- her mom groomed her starting in the eighth grade for the Cotillion Club and for sorority recs. She had an older daughter who was disappointed by not being "In Da Club," so she worked the system. It worked -- not only did her younger daughter get invited to be a deb, but she got into the best sorority at 'Bama.

No way I'd suck up to people like that. I could care less about these things. They really don't matter after your freshman or sophomore year.

Good for Beach Jacket!

I had a great time getting wasted in a wedding dress.:clap_1: And all the parties. It takes a lot to be a "Birmingham Social".

I was invited to one in Bham. Beaux Arts or something like that. Ritzy affair at the Bham Country Club. It was horrific.

I ended up leaving my date and going to Sammy's.

ooo ooo ooo which one?

My friend was "presented" at Cotillion a few years ago. I had a blast. :clap_1:

Not strictly a Southern thing! Philippa did it too. And looked so heavenly beautiful that it still gives me pause. I am a bad mother, though. I could never get the hang of a fox trot. I stepped over many, many toes.

Bsmart, Charleston is one of our favorite cities of all time. If you ever want to see photos, I have a stack, gathered over the years, that measures more than 4" high. Funny thing is that every now and then I take the stack out and look and I still love Charleston.

I was a debutante.

It would have been prettier with opera length white gloves.

Her momma made it. I'm sure they had plenty of flags around the house. That big ol' boy in the shiny blue vest would have looked real nice wearing a vest made out of a rebel flag too.;-)

:clap_1: Yeeehaaaw! Is that a black and red butterfly paint on tattoo to match? :roll: I think blue vest boy is really wanting to be with Kimmifunn. His colors are a dead giveaway. ;-)
