Most people want to look their best on prom night, but don't know where to start. If you're looking for a simple guide to follow, you've come to the right place! In this article, we'll give you seven easy steps to take so that you can feel confident and glamorous on your big night. Read on for tips and advice!
Prom night is the most magical night of the year. It's an important and unforgettable night that everyone should remember and cherish. Although it's a night of dancing, fun, and laughter, we often find ourselves stressing out about how we can look our best for such an intensely emotional event.
We spend months waiting for the big day; you want to make sure you look perfect. With so many details to consider, where do you start? By following these helpful steps, you will be able to look and feel your best on your big night.
1. Dress to impress!
Many people underestimate the importance of a great outfit on prom night. After all, this is your night to shine and you should look fabulous while doing it! Try planning out your look ahead of time so that you have outfits to choose from when you dress for the occasion. Luckily, there is a
wide range of affordable prom dresses you can choose from. A good color choice for girls is silver or gold, while boys can usually get away with anything dark colored such as black or navy blue.
Next comes shoes. The right shoes will complete any perfect outfit because they add an extra touch that makes all the difference. Picking the right shoes can be difficult at times, but we recommend shimmery heels in either silver or gold colors mixed with something versatile like flats (for outdoor pictures and dances).
2. Something blue!
Everyone knows the old saying, "Something old, something new, something borrowed, and something blue." So if you follow this saying to a tee when picking out your dress & shoes, you'll even have some bling on your hands too! The 'old' part of this adage refers to an article of clothing that has been either hand-me-downed to you or bought with the intent of passing it down through generations. For example, maybe you can borrow a sash or headband from your great-grandmother? The 'new' aspect is self-explanatory because it means buying
something new for prom night. Finally, there's the 'borrowed' part which can be anything from a piece of jewelry to a special accessory that is lent to you by your best friend.
3. Hair & makeup!
Getting your hair styled at a professional salon will cost money, but it's worth it because the results are usually spectacular. Doing your own
hair might save you some cash, but you have to ask yourself whether or not you have time for that considering how busy prom night can be! As for makeup, there are many tips out there to keep in mind when applying all of your face paints so you don't look like a mess. For example, remember not to apply too much foundation, or else it could make your face look caked-on.
Take advice from the pros! If you want to make sure you look your best, schedule an appointment with a professional makeup artist or hairstylist! You can even choose to do both. This way, you'll have the chance to ask for tips and tricks of the trade before prom night rolls around.
4. Take pictures before the dance!
When prom night is over, you might realize that you didn't get as many pictures of yourself as you wanted. To ensure this doesn't happen to you, take some time beforehand to pose for a few of your favorite shots. This way, no one will be able to say that you were camera shy! If it's at all possible, consider scheduling individual photo sessions with professional photographers so that you can create an album filled with memories from your special night. These photos won't cost anything additional but will give everyone the opportunity to have the perfect images they deserve on prom night!
5. Have fun!
There are
many things about prom night that can be stressful, but the one thing you don't need to worry about is having fun! This is your night and whatever makes you happy should be what everyone else around you strives to create as well. So dance, laugh, smile, and enjoy every second of your special evening because it's something that only happens once in a lifetime!
6. Express yourself with style!
Prom night isn't just for dressing up and looking glamorous; it's also about expressing your personality through fashion and beauty trends. For example: If you're feeling quirky, consider wearing mismatched shoes or earrings throughout the night. Or if you prefer sophisticated styles, we recommend hair that has been done up into an elegant updo (with matching makeup to match)!
Preparation is key here, so make sure to plan ahead of time and research the trends you want to try out. This way, you won't be caught off-guard when others ask about your unique style!
7. Have a safe ride!
Finally, when it's time to leave the dance, make sure your designated driver is in good shape to keep you alive & well throughout the night. Never risk getting behind the wheel after drinking or taking any other type of drug that would affect your driving skills because prom night is all about coming home safely without getting into an accident!
Prom night is a special and memorable time of your life. You want to make sure you look glamorous for all those photos, but also express who you are as an individual.
