the silver dress doesn't flatter you at all. it gives you no shape and doesn't hug your nice curves. i really liked the two darker ones you posted before, you looked really elegant in them.

cannedpeaches: i definately love the brown one. i greatly depends on your skin tone though because some girls who are really dark don't look so great in brown. if you were pale it would look fabulous.

prom is in two weeks and i still haven't started on my dress, gotten my accessories/shoes, or figured out how will i do my makeup. do you think that the people at macys, at the makeup counters, do a good job at applying makeup? i don't know if they are professionals like the mac people. but my friend had her makeup done at mac for homecoming and it looked so heavy and clownish on her, i don't want to have that happen to me. most people have the hardest times applying makeup properly on people with asian features so i'm worried about getting it done at a counter and having it look gross crazy.gif

also, i'm so iffy about what kind of bag i should bring. those small tiny evening bags/clutches look cute, especially the hard case ones you see celebrities hold in the red carpet. however, i tend to bring everything but the kitchen sink and i'm afraid one of those tiny bags won't be able to fit what i want. but the only small bag i have looks so casual. does anyone else have this dilemma?

haha and here's a money saving tip for all you ladies out there, instead of spending a lot of money on designer perfume, go to the fragrance counters or perfume stores and ask for those sample vials. i'm going to do that for prom. it's cheap but seriously, one vial should be sufficient to last you throughout the night. plus, you are wearing the newest designer fragrance without spending a dime.

I went with my cuzin to the MAC counter and the MU did her make up, it was very cute and natural. We are asian too haha and my cuzin is pretty chinky haha. But the MU made her eyes pop =]

If ur gonna go to a counter and afraid u will look clownish, just go for a NATURAL look. Dont go for colors =o

I posted a picture from the BCBG website a while back, but here`s one with me actually wearing it.

I`m still unsure of what pair of shoes I should wear with the dress though.. I`m learning towards this pair of peeptoes but they`re a little casual I guess. Any suggestions?

x3mango
^ those shoes would look fine. (: i love it!

btw, anyone need a cheap dress. look at my shop! i just added three new dresses. but this is more prom attire!
ROYAL BLUE JESSICA MCCLINTOCK GOWN - $90

* Triple straps with rhinestones (missing one but i glued it back on. photo upon request)
* Beautiful rhinestone lineup in the front
* Worn once and dry cleaned
* Negotiable - within reason
* Retail: $175

im on the left

LAST MINUTE SHOPPING.. LITERALLY.
i got this the night before jr prom because i thought i wasn't going. i look like a ballerina
yeah, shoes dont match bc i didnt have time to look for ones that did but its all good. :]
wooshxD
Does this look formal enough for a Senior Prom?
It's held at a really fancy venue, but I feel like I won't be up to par to other dresses.
It's a BCBG dress and is made of silk and chiffon.
The front is slightly shorter than the back so you can see my shoes, any suggestions?
& I'm kinda iffy on the sequins under the bust <__<

Lindt
Ok, I such an outcast but can I ask something. Are we suppose to get our own wrist flower? I don't go to any formal stuff like this but I have to go to Prom. So I was just wondering.

Well, your dress is really pretty and at Betsey Johnson's it was 300+, so don't feel too bad for buying it for 130. I think its worth it (:

EDIT:
I just looked at the site and O__O its 380.

If you have a date, he should be the one to get it for you.

If you don't, then you don't need to get a corsage unless you want to. haha, theyre like 25 bucks.

^^ WOW are you serious? @__@ then i'm happy i got it at windsor~

time to look for shoes! you all look fabulous T_T

i'm still jealous of those who can wear long dresses XD

did any of you gals wear or planning on wearing a garter?

^ can this dress be for prom too?
x teehee
^That dress is a little casual, but I've seen plenty of girls wear short dresses at prom. Prom is a formal event, but short dresses are more common nowadays, so if you want it, I say go for it smile.gif

would a dark brown/floor length dress be too...old looking for prom? lol. I guess it depends on the design, but I can't find a picture...it's a bcbg halter. I think the color is espresso?
AhleesOhn<3JJ
hello all. alright i need a little help.
my friend and i are going to go dress shopping this coming monday but we can't think up of any good stores.
we don't want othe rpeople to have the same dress so we kind of want to avoid the common places...like windsor...since i dont know windsor is a bit common? well we're going to check windsor out as well but we want to check out other places as well.
anyone know of good stores that have good dresses that aren't too expensive max:$200 and not toooo common so that everyone goes to that store to buy it.. haha
c i n d y
^You can check out local bridal stores like David's Bridal.

i'm still wearing my BCBG turquoise dress ^-^...

My prom is titled 'Arabian Night'! (Or possibly something around that) Haha. I love the theme<3

Dress in full length...what do you guys think? ^_^

I like your dress :D! It's quite different from what I usually see. Very nice~

QUOTE (simpletea @ Apr 18 2008, 08:30 PM) *
It's not simple at all. I really like this dress BUT be careful since this is a popular dress and someone is likely to have the same dress at you at prom.
I'm not sure about the matching though.
yellow& I really like your dress! I think you should have your hair up. Your hair covers the pretty part of the dress.


>_< *has no more time to go shopping* My mom would KILL me. My prom is May 16th smile.gif

I've noticed that people tend to keep their hair simple for prom from what I've seen in pictures..

Would it be weird if I had a giant flower or some kind of BIG hair accessory?

I *finally* got my dress <3
And it makes me super happy. Especially the fact that it was on sale XD

Full length gown, with ruffles down one side.
Now .. I just don't know how to do my hair.
My hair has thin layers from about the shoulder down to my boob.
Up or down?

I got it at Macy's in SF for $60.
I'm actually planning on fixing the straps a little with some glittery clip thingys.
That way, the top doesn't overwhelm me ...
Uhh, hard to explain XD.
Thanks (:

I really want this dress (BCBG yellow silk chiffon dress) but my mum doesn't like it sad.gif

SO.... what do you think,

YES or NO?

=) would appreciate your viewss
rockstar_baby
^ I personally don't like the style, its too plain, but the colour is lovely (:
I don't think it would suit short people (like me) since its so long.
But if you really like it, and it feels comfortable i'd say go for it!

Omigod, that is so cute. Love it. Dark eye shadow and like maybe silver shoes.

QUOTE (manlytoe @ Apr 18 2008, 08:01 PM) *
well, this is the dress i ordered. and guess what?
i'm not going to get/receive it in time for prom.
prom is tomorrow, and i really wanted to wear that dress.
the thing is the seller didn't tell me that she delayed my shipment.
i'm so sad, i'm depressed. T.T i'm going to have to wear a different dress.

I'm sorry, I would be pissed too. Shoot! Can't believe that happened. What you going to wear now?

MidNightCerise: I would go for dress #3, it's really elegant and not tooo dressy like the first two for A Night in Town. =)
The color suits your skin tone too and it shows your curves! ohmy.gif

My school's prom theme is called "Just One Night" @.@ It kinda sounds like a one-night stand lmaoo.







THANKS! ^^ I got it from a HK auction site.
Here's the link: http://hk.f1.page.auctions.yahoo.com/hk/auction/1114937119
If you convert HK currency to U.S dollars then the dress+shipping would add up to about $20. XD
