2009 Pretty Prom..tastic!

Beads - Color - Metallic and Patterned Fabrics reminiscent of the 80's...

There's a land of opportunity to set yourself apart. You can go for color, sparkle and shine or bold prints it's your pick for your special day.

• Gowns with Empire waist will be in full force and are flattering to almost any shape. Many of the gowns are tastefully done, offering class and style without being over the top. You don't need to bare all - it takes the focus off you the person!

• I've seen a lot of "Halter" top treatments which are great for warmer weather and provide a nice neckline for either a simple choker or beautiful cascade designed necklace.

• In choosing your jewelry keep in mind BOLD, unique standout pieces work well with simple lines and less adornment on the DRESS. SIMPLE jewelry is best if your DRESS has a lot going on either in the fabrics print or variety of color.
  

• Keep your choice of jewelry in balance with your gown. You don't want your jewelry and dress to be competing with each other or grabbing attention away from the person wearing it!

Look and shop around! Keep your mind open to new ideas - take a peak at stores you might not normally visit -Just have FUN! You may be pleasantly surprised at the treasures found in a thrift shop or at your local flea market. Get creative or grab a creative friend and have her help you coordinate a special look.
