In a dream, I was attending a party on a cliff, overlooking the ocean. All my friends were there. Everyone dressed up.
Someone interesting was also there. I can’t remember her face, but I can remember her shape, how she moved, the length of her hair, and the smell of her perfume.
Even though I can’t recall her countenance, I know she had kind, bright eyes, and an oddly mischievous smile.

I only noticed her upon taking my second glance. By the third glance I knew was in trouble. At the fifth glance I was completely at sea.

Seemed a shame to keep this view from the balcony all to myself.
