We are a country of prudes :) The only prom that allows them is when the boys army do at 19 years. 19 years old!<br /><br />I don't remember taking pics of my prom dress :) it was probably a wise decision! Have to go dig and see. It was one of those traumatic experiences better forgotten! (but evidently not). The boots were sadly not a sartorial choice - I borrowed them off the friend next to me because I discovered about 10 minutes after arriving that stockings make pumps slip off one's feet!deborahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03435729230637920784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-479880960748887964.post-29624621735076254322012-05-25T11:26:54.914-07:002012-05-25T11:26:54.914-07:00Oh interesting, dates not allowed still?

Although the thought of my husband let loose on all the squares from my academic school... That would've been hilarious. <br /><br />I wore a vintage dress to my high school grad---the one my mom had made for her own grad in 1970! :)Tanit-Isishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15824217102632813598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-479880960748887964.post-60031090833030908002012-05-21T12:31:54.453-07:002012-05-21T12:31:54.453-07:00You look amazing!

Haha.<br /><br />I like your high school prom dress! It reminds me of mine (I was also a big dateless nerd BTW). I was trying to go for a flapper dress. Everyone else had full-skirted floor length Cinderella dresses. Mine was cut about like yours, except with fringe across the bottom. I wore elbow length black satin gloves with a costume jewelry "diamond" cuff from the antique shop.Elishahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12255491078756652711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-479880960748887964.post-22015572119487368712012-05-21T08:52:58.679-07:002012-05-21T08:52:58.679-07:00wow - that dress looks amazing on you! classy AND ...wow - that dress looks amazing on you! classy AND sassy. :)Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02303837420300176952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-479880960748887964.post-3574579746459419982012-05-21T06:09:53.086-07:002012-05-21T06:09:53.086-07:00You are so lucky to get a re-do with your husband!...You are so lucky to get a re-do with your husband! And want a wonderful dress - you look great! <br /><br />I went to my senior year homecoming (my private school didn't have prom - no dancing!) with a group of friends too. I did, however, have a thrifted dress which I still don't think was all that bad (aside from the biggish sleeves), but my husband hates the photos of me in that dress, lol. I guess it's always good when you hit your style stride after college, and especially when you have a wonderful husband to appreciate it. =)Brookehttp://customstyle.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-479880960748887964.post-14925522979852799232012-05-21T05:58:39.095-07:002012-05-21T05:58:39.095-07:00What a lovely thrift find!
