Fancy Dress for the Ball

There is one of the best night clubs of our city not far from my house. My friends and I go there very often. We like it very much. Once upon a time this night club made fancy-dress ball and of course we were going to visit it. I like such kinds of parties very much, when the atmosphere are full of mystery. It was necessary to come in a costume and a person with the best costume would receive the first prize. And of course I planned to take it. The whole week I thought over the clothing for the ball. It should be interesting, individual and beautiful. First I went to the neighboring store of fancy dresses, but there I found nothing suitable for me. There were costumes of knights, musketeers and Cinderella. It was usual and uninteresting. Then I decided to sew the costume by order. But I didn't know what exactly costume I want. I had no ideas and I was puzzled. It was three days before the ball and I even was without any bright idea of my future costume. Then some of my friends advised me to look through internet pages. I followed this advice and not in vain. At some online store I finally found desirable clothing. It wasn't coast much, but it was very effective. And on the ball I supposed to be The Snow Queen. It was beautiful long dress of white and blue colors, necklace like a piece of ice and wonderful mask. I was very excited. I believed that I get first prize. And I bought this apparel. And on the next day it was delivered to me. It was the most desirable purchase for the last year. When I wore this dress I was terrible. It was too small for me. As it found out I bought the apparel on two sizes less then I have. I was so upset and disappointed. I didn't know what to do, because tomorrow would be the ball and I was without costume again. I had no choice and I went to the neighboring store of fancy dresses again. Unfortunately there was only one female costume - the costume of nun. In this costume I couldn't even dream about the first prize. All my friends laughed at me when saw me. I felt very stupid. But I felt relief when saw that there were three absolutely the same costumes of The Snow Queen. And there was only one costume of nun. When the moment of declaring the costume of the night came, I almost dropped with surprise, because the costume of nun won the first prize. I couldn't believe I did it, in spite of everything I got coveted prize. Now I understood it was a sign not to wear the costume of The Snow Queen. And I obliged to destiny for such big present.
