After many posts of preparation, last Monday it was finally time for prom. My dress paid a visit to the tailor's and came back just the way I had wanted it.
A dress perhaps more suited for a more tropical climate, it definitely stood out amongst all the Grecian goddess dresses! Everyone looked absolutely stunning though, and we all had a great time. My dress and clutch were from yet another great designer collaboration, Matthew Williamson for H&M from a few years back.
Ruffles, sequins and an exceptionally cut back along with a crazy pattern I was worried that the dress would be a little too much but I decided to take on the challenge. I think it turned out quite well, at least I had a great night dancing in it!
I decided to put my hair up in a sporty yet elegant braided ponytail. Because of the ruffles on the bottom of the dress, letting my hair out would made it all too heavy and too much. An updo with statement earrings and a well-balanced make-up complemented the dramatic flare of the dress without making it over-the-top.
It turned out to be a terrific night and feeling good about the outfit was a great start!
