Veronica: She finished curling her long hair and smiled at her reflection as she slid her feet into heels. She was wearing a gold backless floor length ball down with elbow length sleeves that sparkled and shimmered, especially under the light, and her hair was curled and pinned back from her face. She twirled slowly, making sure her appearance was fine. She didn't want to keep Alexei waiting but she had to be just right.
Edeline: She combed her boy-short scarlet hair so it would lay flat instead of spiking as she normally let it do. She was wearing a black strapless floor length mermaid style dress. She put on her shoes, thinking about seeing her team at the ball. She decided after a dance or two, she'd just get some firewhiskey and drink and watch just like she did at the Halloween dance.
Isabella: She honestly didn't feel like going to a dance, not when she had recently been informed that Louis was dead and there was nothing left to bury. But she had to forget, and no one knew so appearances needed to be kept. And she liked her dress. It was a white floor length gown with a halter top, and she loved how it moved when she twirled. A ball like this would be the distraction that she needed.
Anya: Some might think a first year was too young to go, but when would there be another Yule Ball? Besides, she might actually make friends. She was wearing an ankle length red ball gown with short sleeves, and she felt like a princess. And red was perfect for Christmas. She finished styling her hair and smiled.
