Five Items To Consider To Make Your Prom Night a Success

1. Five Items To Consider To Make Your Prom Night a Success There are a lot of decisions that go into creating the perfect prom outfit. There are also essential parts of the attire that you'll not want to forget. When contemplating your next prom outfit, make sure you consider the following five essential elements. 1. Dress As the most important element in your prom outfit, the dress sets the mood and tone for all other accessories you'll be wearing. The importance of choosing the right gown cannot be stressed enough. Some things you'll want to consider in choosing your dress: •Your Budget: How much are you able to spend on the perfect dress? Some dresses can seem overwhelmingly expensive, but many budget dress options exist. Choose the price that best fits your wallet. •School Rules: Depending on the rules of your particular school, there may be special considerations as to what dresses you can and can't wear. Pay special attention to the dress code guidelines your school has set forth, if necessary. •Prom Theme: Because most proms have some sort of theme that accompanies them, you may want to choose a dress that fits it. Consider overall styles, colors and textures when selecting your wardrobe.

2. 2. Makeup After choosing your dress, the next thing to consider is makeup. Choose makeup colors that work best with what you'll be wearing. If your dress is edgy and sparkly, choose bright, trendy tones that pair well. For sleek and elegant prom wear, dark and minimal makeups pair drastically well with formal wear. 3. Handbag When choosing a handbag, consider both look and function. A dark clutch bag pairs very well with a sleek, elegant gown, but you'll need to carry it for most of the occasion. Instead, you may want to try a wristlet or strap purse. And pack only the essentials: ID, lipstick, etc. You'll grow tired of carrying too much for too long. 4. Jewelry Jewelry should, as a general rule, be kept to a minimum. Choose pieces that are light in weight that pair well with your dress. Stick with earrings (if desired), a necklace and a bracelet. Match the jewelry’s look with the look of your dress,

You'll most likely be standing and dancing for several hours, so choose a shoe that's comfortable yet formal. Consider the shoe's look, color and material, and don't neglect to consider heel height! It's going to be a long night -- you'll want comfort, not pain, in your heel. Your perfect prom outfit is just a few considerations away.
