The battle has begun for the best dressed prom couple! On Seventeen.com, you can vote from hundreds of photo submissions from prom-goers of years past, and even upload your own photo if you’ve already been to a prom. I love clicking through the photos, because I think it gives great ideas of how couples coordinate their outfits (like a girl in a yellow dress pins a yellow-flower boutonniere on her date), and for fun ways to pose.

The cool thing is that you also search all the photos to see if anyone from your high school has uploaded one. Add your photo from prom or other formals to the mix today!

Going to your own prom is exciting enough, but can you imagine if you got to be in a TV show prom too? It could happen in 2009!

This week, Clean & Clear kicked off a sweepstakes with 90210 – one winner and her best friend will be flown to LA for 4 days and get star treatment on set, including hair, makeup and wardrobe. To enter, you just have to upload a one-minute video here, to cwtv.com/countdown.

Stay tuned to the blog, I have another cool contest to tell you about next week — it’s another chance for you and your bff to attend a celebrity prom!

Are people already asking you who you’re going to prom with? I know, it’s so early to think about!! It’s totally fine if you don’t have a clue. I don’t either! But it could be fun to at least start narrowing down your “type.” Take eSPIN.com’s quiz “What Will Your Prom Date Look Like?” and get a picture of what your date might look like. I’m a match for “the Nice Guy” — what about you?

To get a second opinion, take MyPromStyle’s “Who Should Be Your Date?” quiz. It’ll help you decide whether it really is best to go with your crush to prom — or maybe you should go with a group of friends, or a good guy friend.

I wouldn’t worry too much about finding a date yet though — make January all about dreaming of the perfect dress!

We have one day left of holiday vacation! If you’re looking for a warm, cozy way to spend it indoors, take my idea: I’m renting a classic prom movie to get in the spirit for prom 2009. It’s officially the year of your prom, woo hoo!!

MyPromStyle.com compiled the top 17 prom scenes of all time here. What do you think? Did we leave any good ones out? I’ve never seen “Pretty in Pink” (I was just a baby when it came out…you weren’t even born!), so that’s what I’m renting. The prom scene that currently melts my heart the most now is…hands down…TWILIGHT! Let me know what you think. And let’s compare notes on “Pretty in Pink” sometime.
