In this fragment, Natasha Rostova goes to her first ball. She's worried.
....
Наташа с утра этого дня не имела минуты свободы и ни разу не успела подумать о том, что предстоит ей.
В сыром, холодном воздухе, в тесноте и неполной темноте колыхающейся кареты она в первый раз живо представила себе то, что ожидает ее там, на бале, в освещенных залах, — музыка, цветы, танцы, государь, вся блестящая молодежь Петербурга. То, что ее ожидало, было так прекрасно, что она не верила даже тому, что это будет: так это было несообразно с впечатлением холода, тесноты и темноты кареты. Она поняла все то, что ее ожидает, только тогда, когда, пройдя по красному сукну подъезда, она вошла в сени, сняла шубу и пошла рядом с Соней впереди матери между цветами по освещенной лестнице. Только тогда она вспомнила, как ей надо было себя держать на бале, и постаралась принять ту величественную манеру, которую она считала необходимой для девушки на бале. Но, к счастью ее, она почувствовала, что глаза ее разбегались: она ничего не видала ясно, пульс ее забил сто раз в минуту, и кровь стала стучать у ее сердца. Она не могла принять той манеры, которая бы сделала ее смешной, и шла, замирая от волнения и стараясь всеми силами только скрыть его. И это-то была та самая манера, которая более всего шла к ней. Впереди, сзади их, так же тихо переговариваясь и так же в бальных платьях, входили гости. Зеркала по лестнице отражали дам в белых, голубых, розовых платьях, с бриллиантами и жемчугами на открытых руках и шеях.
Наташа смотрела в зеркала и в отражении не могла отличить себя от других. Все смешивалось в одну блестящую процессию.
