PROM!

Hello everyone! On Friday 4th of July last week, I had one of the best nights of my life, Prom!! It was a Las Vegas theme with showgirls, roulette tables, playing cards and Poker chips. It was an amazing and incredible night and I thought I would share with you all the different elements of my prom.

First of all, my dress! I wore a red flowing chiffon dress with a sweetheart neckline and silver and red beaded detail. I honestly felt so beautiful and I was in love with my dress, especially because it made my feel a little taller! I bought it from a local boutique called Dress To Go and it made by a company called Sousourada.


My shoes were white silk with lots of jewels, beading and diamantes, I fell in love with them! They complimented the beading on my dress perfectly. They were from New Look and cost around £30! For prom shoes they were perfect because I was able to wear them all night long and they weren't too high to walk in.

 
 
My bag was also from New Look and cost me £25, it's similar to my shoes because it is white silk with lots of sparkling detail. It was a great size for Prom because I could fit all the different things needed to take with me.



I wore very little jewellery because I didn't want to overpower my dress or look too sparkly!! However I did wear a little pair of diamond earrings by the designer Jon Richards which is available at Debenhams. They cost me £12 and were exactly what I was looking for because they weren't too big or too small.
 


For my hair after a few different trials, I decided on having two waterfall braids on either sides on my head with loose curls (as you can tell I'm not the best at describing!). I chose this because I wanted my hair to look elegant and pretty and I particularly liked how a waterfall braid looks.

 

For my makeup I wanted to look flawless and to look natural. I loved my makeup, it was the perfect balance, I had neutral, gold eyes and a nude lip. It was the perfect no makeup, makeup look I wanted.  I also had a manicure on the morning of Prom, I chose to have shellac put onto my nails because it is long lasting and I loved the wide colour range. I decided to have glitter nails, where a pale pink base coat was applied and then a layer of glitter. I was so pleased with them I loved how sparkly they were!
 

Our transport to Prom was a stylish black limousine, I loved it! I went to Prom with 7 of my closest friends and the atmosphere in the limo was a mix of excitement, happiness and lots of nerves! I enjoy the trip to Prom so much I felt so special.


I hope you enjoying seeing pictures and hearing about my Prom, I had such an amazing time! Thankyou for taking your time reading my posts, I love hearing your thoughts and reading your comments!

  4. You look wonderful on that dress, Em! I love how it beautifully suited your prom's Las Vegas theme. I'm sure you and your friends waited on that day to come for like forever. Hahaha! To think that you and seven of your friends had that stretched limo all to yourselves, everyone must've had their eyes on you when you arrived. That must've been such a blast. Anyway, thanks for sharing all about that memorable day! All the best! :)
