PROMAZING

Prom is almost, but not quite, a bad word in homeschool communities. Like it's okay to say gosh and darn but don't get mothers started on the P-word. Dancing that isn't 18th century style? Music other than Chris Tomlin? Lemonade...on the rocks?

You can imagine why I use the term "Prom" very loosely here.

It was such a fun dance! I danced a lot. And thankfully there are no videos so I can safely say I'm a great dancer and there is no evidence to prove otherwise. By the end of the night, my strapless bra had failed me 3 times, I learned 3 new dances and basically became friends with everyone there. Success for this social butterfly!

What I would wear

There's a homeschool dance coming up and as much as I'd like too, I won't be one the attendees. But just because I'm not going does not mean I can't think about what I would wear...right? Okay, I make no sense.

I personally am not a fan of skimpy, teenage prom dresses. They are always, too tight, too short and sometimes fairly ugly. I prefer a little more elegant looking style.

I wish I had $200 dollars laying around so I could get this! Isn't it just darling? I love the color, and the bow is sort of weird, but with a cardigan and belt this would be extra adorable.This one I could actually think about buying, but it seems kind of silly to waste all my Christmas money on one dress. I love the layers of pleats on this one and while green is generally not my favorite color, I love this shade.

So that's what I'd be wearing if I were going. I get my new glasses today, I'll show you some pictures I'm sure!
