Cotillion 2021

We were thrilled that cotillion for the sixth grade class carried on in 2021! Yes, there were absolutely modifications, but it was still a wonderful experience. There was no parent night this year, so Whit cheerfully posed for a pic in the living room. How is this young man my baby?!?!

The program is four weeks and each week’s theme focuses on a different aspect of manners, respect, and responsibility.   We consistently work on these qualities at home but there is something powerful about learning and honing these skills outside of the home with a group of your peers.   In addition to the lessons about etiquette, they also learn key steps to build a foundation in a variety of ballroom dances.   Jay attended the same cotillion with his fifth grade peers this year!

We have a collection that all of them share, including Honey. For shoes, they love Cole Hahn loafers for their comfort. They rotate between these belts:

Have a wonderful weekend!

I used one of our favorite cocktails as the base… Pomegranate Gimlet Modern Comfort… Read More
