^i second that! its gorgeous smile.gif

uh i know this is a prom dress thread, but can i ask a little question about prom itself? sweatingbullets.gif
so i texted the guy im going with about what color corsage he got so i can get a matching boutinnere thing (cant spell that lol)
he replied "sry i didnt get one yet" and then a couple minutes later texted me "i'd be thankful if you got a matching corsage"

WTF. dry.gif dry.gif doesnt that totally defeat the purpose?! and btw, its not like we're close or anything. i started talking to him after he asked me to prom..rather randomly. why the hell am i supposed to reply to that? "no"? errr dry.gif

Camera captured blue but actual colour is greener, so elegant.. it's for sale if anyone's interested smile.gif
edit: there's also a slit on the side but the pic doesn't show well (it's on the wearer's left side). Will take more pics if anyone's seriously interested in buying. *NOTE: this is a one of a kind dress


that's gorgeous!
did you make it yourself then? Or did someone make it for you?
Whoever made it AMAZING JOB!

I got my dress the other day for $90


It looks the same color as my walls but it's actually ivory? XD

Detail:


Any suggestions for hair and makeup??
IATEYOU
^wow thats gorgeous!
for hair, i would sweep it up but make some curls fall down onto your shoulders (except i dont know how long your hair is lol)
and makeup...i would keep it light and fresh, but maybe make your eyes really intense to contrast against the light colors of your dress? hehe personal preferences. smile.gif

edit: ooh i saw your 411! cute pics, btw.
okay then...for the hair, since its pretty short (if your hairs the same length as the first page pics) maybe curl it and put it half up and half down?

I bought this dress for my sister today...At first she didn't want to go to prom and all of a sudden She wants to go now! And her Prom is in 3 days...I had to go buy her a dress today because we don't have time...its in 3 days.....I mean I like this dress but when I showed her pictures of it (im in college and she's at home...so had to show her pics) She really didn't like it...She thought it looks like a dress to go salsa dancing and she didnt like the color cause she thought she would stand out too much...grrrrr.....What do u guys think of this dress??!! Maybe It'll change her mind...







and the dress is really long as u guys can see...Im gonna have to lake a layer off at the bottom :-/

^ The style is actually pretty but the color is blech...not so easy on the eyes. for me, orange=no

well, instead of making it awkward why don't you two go together. kind of like, "hey let's get our corsage/boutinnere at the same place" and try to make it more friendly and a "bonding" time before prom; maybe invite him out for lunch and along the way stop by the flower shop. it's always a lot easier to match when you order from the same place because they come in a package deal or in pairs.

i always found it a bit awkward to ask my dates to get corsages and boutinneres so i suggest we go together and i pretend to let him have a say in it (haha usually girls always have a final say in what corsage and matching boutinnere they want rolleyes.gif )

hope it helps.

i got a cute little dress from forever 21 for my friend's after party

apparently it's more formal than some people's actual prom dress
but i love love love it <3 <3 and it was under $30 so im really happy =)

a lot of my friends are just planning on wearing
jeans, heels, dressy/ club shirt though. soo i guess it all depends
on if you want to dress up or not

my friend wore a calf length dress to prom and i thought it looked really pretty :]
but i think it depends on the dress and who's wearing it.
why don't you post a pic up of you wearing it and then we can help you ^^

Just text back saying that it's tradition for the guy to get the corsage and the girl to get the boutonnière. Hopefully he'll get the hint.

What do you guys think? I'm thinking of wearing this to prom, but since I'm a junior and it isn't my prom, I'm not going all out. Oh, and I'll probably wear this to after prom, too - my after prom is a bit more formal (more than just a skirt and a nice shirt)...is it so formal I'd look out of place?

I really like your dress (and your hairstyle)!
I'm not really good with shoe suggestions, but I think black heels would be fine? Sorry I'm not much help .
By the way, where did you get your dress? ><

Anyone know where I can buy like a shrug jacket or wrap? My dress is strapeless and I would like to find a lacey shawl jacket, short sleeved to fit it. This is my dress. It's pink. The top looks like that.

I really like shawl jackets like the ones I posted below.

LOL i bought it online.
i did see it at one point in the forever 21 in TO (outside eatons)
or at least a dress almost exactly like it - silky with bow and i tried it
but it was like a medium which sagged awkwardly so i just
bought this one online =)

I'm sort of thinking about this dress.
I don't know though, I feel like it shows all my flaws, haha, and the color is boring.
They only had it in white & black though.

^What flaws o__O? The back of the dress is gorgeous, btw. Though I must say congratulations on the wedding. You look pretty in it even though I can't see your head. Haha I think it looks good on you (:

senior prom 2008 is coming up for my school and i still haven't gotten a dress.
i'm a junior and junior prom is in a week. i got my dress for that in december. ;x
i spent a lot on that dress and i don't want to spend a lot for prom since
it's not even my prom. i want to go for a full length or mid-thigh length dress.
does anyone have any suggestions for where to find a nice, decently priced or cheap dress?

I'd go with the first BCBG one. Just so you know, I saw the laundry by design one on another model on some other website and it didn't look as nice as the one on the bloomingdales site.

the first bcbg dress is nice too, but the colour might not look as good on asian skintones.

Try buying a push up bra or a padded bra.
Check out some of the bras from Victoria Secret or something.
Hope that helps!
