Hundreds of fashionable Best Buddies tripped the night fantastic at the Best Buddies Dallas Winter Wonderland Friendship Formal.  Gents were dashing in looks ranging from suits and bow ties to classic prepster. The young ladies were stunning in fashions ranging from sequined minis and mesh ruffle tops to t-shirt dresses paired with buckled booties.  High heels were kicked off for comfort as festivities moved to the dance floor.  The very best fashion accessories were the huge smiles worn by all in attendance.
