yeah it must b heaps hard eh!!!

my sister 4 her yr12 formal last year wore a cocktail one-
it was black and came down just past the knees, but it was a few different lengths- some above the knees etc. It was really pretty...
but im really weird, cause i don't like cocktails for me... i love to feel like a princess so i do the full long pink, strappless dress that is sparkley lol
but then again if i knew everyone else was going cocktail, i'd proli have to conform...

a floaty coloured one sounds cute as!!!
let us know how u go, and yeah maybe talk to your friends first xox
HAVE FUN!!!

well...i like dresses so i buy lots of dresses.
i bought my first formal dress in leona edmiston and it knee length and black. i didnt mind paying what i did as it is a classic style and will never date.
i also just purchased a floor length blood red dress from lisa ho. it was kinda pricey but another classic style.
in my case i find if i'm going to buy a dress i make it a classic so i pay more than others. i find that the quality is better and they will always be fashionable!
good luck

I got mine from the most unsuspecting place! I'm not very patient with clothes and trying on a million zillion dresses really annoyes me. After going in every single shop in Chatswood Chase, Westfield, Neutral Bay and Manly, I finally found mine in Jigsaw. Its GORGEOUS! <3 Its coral with a slight silver pattern near the bottom! <3

Now, for shoes! Do you people know that there is a disturbing lack of coral coloured shoes in this world? Why? Coral is such a beautiful colour. I demand more coral. :D

I'm sorry, I'm excited!

Also, what do you call it when you crush your hair into curls - well, half curls? The wavy look? *lost* Does it have a name? Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I should do to my hair? It nearly waist length, uber thick and black....
