Prom 2012

Shining like a celebrity walking down the red carpet.  prom is a night of few words, elegance , uniqueness, beauty, and fun. A time to show up and show off your individualism and personality,  as well as your outer beauty. wearing the dress of your dreams and having the night of your life.

STYLE TIPS:

  • you may want something breathable and comfortable if you plan on dancing
  • if you want a long dress make sure its not skin tight and you can walk in it
  • wear a comfortable shoe that can be worn all night
  • if you chose a short dress make sure its not too short
  • rule of thumb ( put your arms down to your sides dress should stay that far down at all times any higher will cause unmanageable problems for you )
  • hair up is the best way to go (this will give you a less stressful night and keep you cooled off)
  • if you cant decide if you want a long dress or a short dress there is always the option of both                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    – they have short dresses with trains to give you best of both world
  • if you want a ball gown you should consider whether it will get stepped on and if it will get in the way
  • strapless isn’t the way to go but if that’s what you want you will need alterations to keep it in place
  • get dress tape to secure it where you want it is another option to consider when wearing a strapless dress
  • consider your options in color do your research to back up your decision
  •  example:(you don’t want a white dress if you dinner choice is spaghetti )
  • you have to consider the fabric choice
  • accessories are the easiest part of the process because all you should be doing is accenting the dress to accommodate the pattern of the dress
  • a smart choice for an accessory is a shawl so you can look stylish and cover up if you get cold

color matches:

- red goes good with silver or black

-silver goes good with black

-black goes good with white or gold

- if you choose to go with a bright color use neutral accessories to make the dress pop. Sparkles and stones love bright colored gowns.

- with multi colored dresses you should always go with a solid color like black shoe or scarf  to soften the pattern. Print gowns have never been more popular, and since they aren’t the first thought when it comes to the traditional formal prom flowing print dresses make a unique bold statement in the crowd.

re-using the dress:

  • solid one color dresses are the way to go
  • use different jewelry and it will make the dress new
  • you can always get the dress altered to look different if you really want to
  • bright colors and short dresses are a great combination for the summer parties

So Cute! New Styles!

OK these aren’t exactly “flower girl dresses” but when we had a request for a 6th grade school dance…we we’re told to find something not to formal but totally fun. This is what we found. Zebra print bubble dresses! Wouldn’t this had been the best dress at the winter dance whe you were 12?

 

The skirt is party taffeta so the entire dress has that dressy feel. The bodice is fully lined jersey knit for a casual sporty addition to it. As of this post, this dress is currently available as a pre-order (That means we have them coming and the manufacturers are still cutting our order) Yes, they are THAT new!

Skirt colors are available in purple, turquoise (our favorite) , burgundy, and chocolate.
