Can You Believe This Prom Dress? May 26, 2009

Like any girl, Maranda (from Georgia) started browsing for her prom dress 3 years before the event. Except rather than pick out a style or color for her dress, she picked out a craft: making a dress from soda can tabs!soda can prom dress

Check out photos of Maranda’s dress here, on wsbtv.com. I’m impressed by the looks of it — but can you imagine sitting down for dinner in it? Ouch! The story reminds me a bit of the duct tape prom dresses…would you rather wear a duct tape dress or a soda can tab dress? Haha, well I’d rather wear Jovani or Betsey Johnson, personally, but if I had to choose between the two — soda can tabs!

Did you go to prom yet? If you did, upload your prom pic to seventeen.com and see if you and your date win for Best Dressed!

Gushing Over the Gossip Girl Prom Dresses May 20, 2009

Prom is so close for most of you, but our friends from the Upper East Side celebrated prom two weeks ago. I’m talking about Gossip Girl, of course. If you missed the “Valley Girls” prom episode, you can watch it on CWTV.com now. The dresses were to die for!

Blair Waldorf Prom DressBlair wore a black silk tulle ball gown with gold feather appliques by Marquesa. This dress resembles the white dress that Audrey Hepburn wore in the movie Sabrina — we all know Blair is a big fan of hers. However, one of the best things about this dress is that Chuck got it for her. Don’t you wish guys in real life did that too?

Serena Prom DressAfter Dan rescues her at the police station, Serena shows up at prom wearing a sparkling pink Christian Dior halter gown. Her long loose curls add breezy vibes to her elegant outfit.  Dan and Serena looked so good together that it made me jealous!

Whose prom dress was prettier? Serena or Blair? Cast your vote in the comments!

You Said No to Prom May 14, 2009

Could you imagine what would happen if a singer-songwriter like Katy Perry or Taylor Swift asked a guy to prom and he said no? I think they would do a music video kinda like this one that Converse created for fun. Watch “You Said No to Prom” and let us know what you think!

I love that the girl had the guts to ask the guy to prom — and maybe it’s better he said “no” to prom…he doesn’t sound like the ideal date, with bad breath and weird Internet habits. Why would she ask him in the first place?

Who are you going to prom with? Is it the guy you initially thought would be your date? If not, remember, sometimes things happen for a reason! You’re probably better off. :-)

If you need last-minute advice on your prom date situation, don’t forget you can ask girls 24/7 for advice at seventeen.com/ask.

Prom Eyeshadow - Try 4 Colors in 1 May 5, 2009

Not sure how to color your eyelids for prom? Your best bet is to pick out a quad or trio eyeshadow kit — the shades come already color-coordinated for you.

Here are two fun kits BonneBell created especially for prom season, Dance Party (left) and Prom Queen (right), that retail for $3.95.

Dance Party by BonneBellProm Queen by BonneBell

These quads are perfect for a girl like Larissa, a fashionista in our Ultimate Prom reality series, who likes really colorful eyelids — see for yourself in Episode 6!

But for most of us, natural palettes with brown/plum shades feel most comfortable. Here are two in my makeup bag, by BonneBell and Clinique (click images if interested in buying):

BonneBell Cafe Classics Clinique Eyeshadow

These kits are easy to apply — it’s all about mastering the blend. Here are some tips to get you started:

First step, apply a primer so the pigment doesn’t crease on your lids. I swear by Too Faced’s Shadow Insurance ($17 but it’s flawless!).

Next, remember that you want to start light and go darker. Apply the lightest shade in the palette, or a neutral shade you already have, across your lid first. Then, brush a deeper shade across the lid, up to the crease, for the main color. When brushing eyeshadow on, sweep from the corner of the eye outward. To highlight, brush a light shade across your brow bone. When you’re finished, you can use a blush brush to blend the colors together more naturally.

And don’t forget this secret of all makeup artists: A dot of white shadow or pencil on the inside of the eye, near the tear duct, makes eyes look brighter.

Do you have any eyeshadow tips and tricks?
