Know This, Prom History

Since I have been posting about proms and all, I can't help but really do my homework of how people before perceived proms. Today, youngsters see prom as lavish, extravagant and exceptionally special.

But, when I looked at its history way back 1800's. In 1900's, the youngsters only wear their Sunday's best. They didn't really spend new clothing for the event. They treated this as a simple social gathering. It was a gathering among college students but it became more dramatic when it was materialized in high schools.

But, when there was already a freedom among the youth to pick up their wants and after the post-war events, the popularity and elegance of proms had escalated. In 1950's, teenagers then would pick up for elegant and expensive get-ups with complementary cars and all to sport on.

In 1980's, prom (short for promenade) had become more-than-life issue. This was even dramatized by movies that young ones began considering proms as a big day in their lives. This is quite evident by how these young ones would go for glamorous get-ups and work for Prom Queen and Prom King and really connect with True Royalty.

Now, this is a break- or -make event for teenagers. I could see among the young ones that they are indeed more excited of their proms than any event in their schools.Hahahahahaah!

Make Your Proms Special

My sister is quite excited of her upcoming prom this late February. We are still scouting for her dress and as her elder siblings, Tammy and I would fish for dress that somehow would fit her and make her really beautiful and feel special on that big day.

And, since I did not actually experience proms before, I wish to give her tips that would somehow help her make this big day precious and memorable. I simply gave her and all prom ladies these advices:

Do:
1. Feel important and special. Having this feeling will also radiate and others would feel this too and confirm your worth.

2. Fit the dress so she can be as comfortable and pretty.

3. Wear make up and hair style that complement the dress. A pair of earrings can help highlight the face.

4. Pick a dress that is not at all common but has the taste of elegance. Having it customized or borrowing from the elders can not only help the tight budget but this too can assure you that you won't have any copycat and you will get an approving glance and appreciation instead.

5. Enjoy the night with friends of gals and boys. But, don't fish for compliments. Your moves and your dress will solicit one. Act with poise and elegance. This prom day is quite special and must be treated as such.

6. If you have your partner with you, you can tip him of your dress color so you can really indeed be called a cool pair.

7. Most importantly, bring your cameras with you to capture every moment in this big day.

Have fun ladies and gentlemen!

My Prom Dress

My Wish Prom Dress
(www.promdresses2009.com)

Our store has been visited for prom dresses. Even my younger sibling is searching for one. And since, it is the love month, prom events are usually scheduled.

My sister, Tammy will soon right away check for these elegant, stylish but affordable dresses that will surely fit our clients. I took the liberty too to see what could be the chic trends now for proms. I would usually wish that I could have attended my prom when I was in high school. But, since I was pretty shy then, I opted to stay at home. But, if I have to rekindle the past and be in one of the best proms, I would want to wear the dress above. I have grown some belly fats since I gave birth to my son. So, to at least hide it, this dress is quite perfect for me. What do you think?
