Prom Dresses

It's that time of year again!! I have my final prom in June and girls in my school have already started stressing about prom season. We have a Facebook group so that there are no dress repeats, and it's so much fun to keep track of what everyone is wearing! I have already had my dress for a while now (about a year!) and I am absolutely in love with it. But, I'm not going to post it for a while!! 

I've been looking at dresses for my friends, so here are my favorite picks for prom!!

Vineyard Vines Bailey Ikat Dress

I think that the neckline on this dress is so pretty!! It comes in two colors (light blue and navy), and it's semi-formal without being too serious. My prom is (oddly) very casual, so this would be perfect to wear!!

Vineyard Vines Bouquet Dress

I love this dress. The color and the shape are both universally flattering!!

J. Crew Ella Dress in Medallion Paisley

My best friend wore this dress in a different print for last year's prom, and it was so pretty!! Of course I like the pink and orange!!

J. Crew Silk Petal Dress

This dress could actually work for prom and graduation!!

Lilly Pulitzer Amberly Dress

For the more adventurous prom-goers, I LOVE THIS DRESS. First, it's pink and green. Second, it has a bow. Third, it's strapless. It's perfect!! It's so much fun!!

Lilly Pulitzer Darleena Dress

It is a very rare occurrence that there a long dress makes an appearance at my high school's prom, so I never really webshop for them. This dress by Lilly Pulitzer is very pretty and great for a relaxed, summery-y prom!

Lilly Pulitzer Bloomy Dress

Lovely, lovely dress. The embellishment is pretty and it helps you choose which metallic for your jewelry! 

What do y'all think? What are y'all wearing for prom? Let me know!!

Have a great day!

Prom!!!

Prom is on Monday and I absolutely cannot wait. I wish I could post the video of my date asking me to prom but it has my last name in it (and I would rather not give that out!). But, regardless of the date, I'm so excited for getting ready!! For the past month I have been working out religiously and diligently every afternoon at the gym, and it's definitely paid off! Now the sun is out, and I've been working on my tan (so I don't have to go to a tanning bed or get a spray tan). The best part is that the academic part of school finally ended yesterday (my last exam was yesterday), and now everything is about prom, prom, prom!!

I'm having 7 girls come over on Monday afternoon to get ready for prom. Most of them are getting their hair done professionally but we're still going to do our makeup and get dressed and have so much fun! I'm doing my best friends hair and makeup, so wish me luck! Also, I'm trying to think of a cute, girly movie to put on while we're getting ready -- any thoughts? Let me know!

I finally chose a dress, and it's the Lilly Pulitzer Jacqueline Dress Embroidered in Hotty Pink. It fits perfectly and it's short and PINK! I feel like a Barbie doll in it! The embroidery on the top and bottom is so pretty!! Did I mention it's hot pink!?!?

Next are the shoes. Staying true to the Lilly girl that I am, I'm wearing the LP Swingin' on a Star Heels. They're 3 inches (which is good because then I'm still shorter than my date!) and the gold goes perfectly with the dress. I actually have to walk around in them all weekend because I am not very coordinated at walking in heels!! I hardly wear them so I have to become an expert by Monday afternoon!

This is not a very good picture (as it was taken on my phone), but these are the earrings I'm wearing. When my mom and I went to get the boutonniere for my date, there was a TON of adorable jewelry at the florist. My mom and I each got a pair, and they were from local jeweler Trudy Selib. 

The clutch I'm bringing is the LP Shell Shocked Clutch in Classic White First Impression. The white matches the embroidery on the dress, and the gold with the shoes and my earrings!

 

Tomorrow I'm getting a manicure with my 2 best friends and I've already chosen the colors. I'm going to have a light pink/nude color on my finger nails (ideally Essie's Mademoiselle or High Maintenance) and then Essie's Movers and Shakers on my toes!

Besides being the prettiest person ever, Dianna Agron (from Glee) has great hair! I'm going to steal her half up/half down hairstyle! I'm going to do it myself because I've practiced it before and it worked out great, plus I'm very picky about people doing my hair for me!

Lastly, I'm going to try to do the simple eye makeup that's shown in the picture of Dianna Agron above!

The schedule of events for Monday are Pre-pre-Prom (at my house), then Pre-Prom (the picture taking/parents socializing bit), then Prom, then Post Prom (at the beach). I'm so excited! Wish me luck!!

Have a great day, y'all!!

Fashion Friday: Prom!!

Today I'm linking up with Kori at Blonde Episodes for Fashion Friday!! My main fashion interests right now are PROM DRESSES! With prom 1 month away, everyone (especially the girls) is freaking out on what they're going to wear and who they're going to go with. Tons of girls were asked this week and while I'm happy for them, I want to be asked so badly!!! This is my first prom and I'm really excited!!

This was my beginning choice for prom. I love this dress so much (I got it during the fabulous End of Summer Sale from Lilly last year) and I've never worn it before. 

The blue is so pretty and I love the white eyelit on top. I don't know if I'm going to choose this dress though. There are so many options!!

My second prom pick was the Jacqueline Dress Embroidered from Lilly. The pink is adorable, it's quite short (which I LOVE) and the embroidery is to die for! I'm thinking that I might wear this to graduation, though.

The last dress is the new Worth Shift from Lilly in Dark n' Stormy. I love this dress. Love, love, love. I remember seeing it in the miniature catalog that they send to all Lilly stores a couple of weeks ago, and it stood out to me! The scary thing is that it comes out on May 25, and prom is June 6. My mom pre-ordered it thankfully! 

I can go on about this dress all day. I love the colors, the print is so cute (it has the recipe for a Dark n' Stormy on it!), and I love how short it is!! I'm trying to find the perfect accessories for it (shoes, jewelry...I can't choose between gold or silver to wear with it!), and I'll keep y'all updated on Prom 2011!!

On another note, I'm assuming everyone watched the Royal Wedding this morning!! My mom watched the whole thing, but I only watched from 6:15 ET on. I LOVED Kate's dress. It looked so much like Grace Kelly's wedding dress (and as y'all know, Grace Kelly is my icon beyond icons...) and it was very classy and elegant!! She and William are too cute together!!

Also, this is the last day to enter my dahl house giveaway! The winner will be selected tomorrow, and I'll contact them immediately after. 

Have a fabulous weekend!!
