Prom

Probably, Prom is something I’ll never experience, my school does not allow a prom and all we have is this Graduation Ball – I’m satisfied with that. I’m not bitter about it albeit I know I’ll be missing a small part in my life but I guess it is okay.

Anyway, last Saturday there was an activity here in our country called Candy Style Awards and the attire was Prom Pretty, I wanted to come but I can’t because I don’t have a prom dress. (Lol) Since I can’t come, I just browsed for prom dresses online, I saw many sexy prom dresses and I got inspired to write this up. Sexy style is not my cup of tea but to those girls who prefer them.

Proms are usually held near the end of the school year. Junior and senior high school students are dressed formally. Boys wear tuxedos usually in black or white while girls wear beautiful gowns matched with shining jewelry and a stunning makeup.

A girl’s problem is probably a prom dress. There are a lot of different designs out there, one with a beautiful beading, and another with a really good color, a gorgeous cut or slit, and all those details. Choosing a prom dress may be stressful but if you’ll think positively, you’ll be able to find one. You can have one customized or you can just look for gowns in the mall or shop online.

1. One of the things you must consider when buying a prom dress is your budget. Scout the prices in the mall and online to get an idea on how much a dress is, compare it with each other and think if it’s worth it. Analyze the details and think if you’ll save if you’ll buy this over that. Will getting something in the mall cheaper or the price is just as the same if you’ll have one customized? Is the one online better and do you like the design? Organize your thoughts and choose the one that will apply to you. But don’t forget to stick with the budget you planned. 
2. Remember that you shouldn’t spend that much to a dress and it’s not about the dress’ worth, it’s about the design and the way you accessorize and wear it. Also, you have to be smart in setting up a budget, yes, Prom can be a memorable part of your high school life but it’s not really worth to spend a thousand of dollars right? Find a dress that will suit your budget and style.

3. But it’s not all about the budget either! You have to wear something that will look flattering to your body. We all have different body types and in order to look extra gorgeous, your dress must complement your body. Do you need a dress that will accentuate your waistline, a dress that will add fullness to your body? A fitted dress to show your figure or short dresses to flaunt your legs? Know the type of the body that you have and choose a gown that will flatter your curves. Check the dress’s silhouette, design, embellishments, etc. and see if it’s perfect to your body.

4. A great hairstyle can also make a change! Do you want to go with curls and just put it down or do you want to show your beautiful necklace and put it in an elegant updo? Know what you’re wearing and that’s the time you’ll be able to pick a hairstyle. According to a beauty site, the top 10 trendiest promenade hairstyles are, The Mussy Updo, Half-up/Half-down Prom Hair, The Classic Prom Updo
Long Hair Worn Down (the Non-Updo), Braids, The Side Ponytail, Short Hair, Side Buns
The Bejeweled and Fake Bobs. There are a lot and try them out! Don’t be afraid to test them and see. 
Choose something that will show the beautiful embroidery, appliqué, or beading of your dress. You don’t want your hair to cover your teardrop earrings right?

5. Speaking of teardrop earrings, don’t forget to accessorize! Accessories can create a huge impact to a dress. Balance it out properly and voila! You’ll look extra stunning. 
There are many other ways to prepare for prom and I just cited some but whatever they are, just remember to enjoy! Dance your night away and make it a memorable one.

Diversified Wedding Customs in Different Countries

There are a lot of Wedding traditions, around the world. This article is written to inform you some. I got these information from Livescience.com. 

Often, brides only wear one wedding dress during the whole day, but not in China. In China, brides wear 3 dresses! Doesn’t that sound good to the bride? Well maybe, but it can be quite tiring changing and changing and it might cost you much though wearing 3 gowns is still quite amazing right? The first dress is the cheongsam or qipao, it is red in color, slim fitting and embroidered. After that, the girl will wear the traditional white dress that Western people often wear. During the reception, the birde will change into a cocktail dress that she likes. 

Last year, we studied a few things about an Indian wedding. I liked their culture and somehow it felt that an Indian wedding would be great! The first ceremony is called Misri. It involves exchanging of prayers by both husband and wife and giving of garlands and rings. This happens 7 days before the wedding. The parents of the groom also offer the bride with gifts. After that is the Mehendi, Mehndis are intricate designs placed on the hands of the bride and her female family and friends. It takes a long time to apply but it looks extremely beautiful. 

Gypsies, on the other hand, incorporate the broom during wedding. Broom jumping is common in African-American weddings, which is rooted to the days of slavery before.

In Jewish weddings, there is a tradition of breaking a glass, the groom steps on it and crushes it. They say that they do it to express happiness and it’s often accompanied by the saying ‘mazel tov’ which means, good luck. 



Ever seen a baby bridesmaid? I haven’t! But I heard that they have those in UK! Royal weddings usually get baby bridesmaids. Here’s a fact, Kate Middleton had 3-year-old bridesmaids in her wedding!

The wedding cake in Peru is creative! It’s not just those fancy wedding cakes. A Peruvian cake often has charms attached to ribbons where one ring is attached. The one who gets it is assumed to be the next one to get married. 

In Zulu, a bride would wear the traditional white gown first then she later changes her clothes into something colorful and tribal. After that, a dance off is held between the families. The man’s family also slaughters a cow then the bride will put money inside the cow’s body. They say that it symbolizes that  

A joyous processional is seen at Lebanese weddings. The procession offers dancing and music and happy shouting outside the groom’s house. They’re called the zaffe, which escorts thegroom to the wife’s house.

Russian grooms have to be really patient and hardworking. Usually, the friends or family of the bride will refuse to accept him if he doesn’t shower the girl with gifts, jewelry, and. Etc. The groom needs to pass the tests to be given by the female relatives or friends to meet the bride-to-be.

There are a lot of wedding traditions around the globe. In my country, Philippines, I believe that our culture regarding this is actually rich. What I like the most about Filipino weddings is that it is really religious. We value God the most and involve Him in everything. Also, there are different stages in getting a girl’s hand and usually it takes a really long time. 

After the wedding, the couple sets free of pigeons to symbolize peace and there is also a belief that it will take away hardship and problems to the bride and groom. There are a lot of ‘pamahiin’ or superstition in a Filipino wedding - like the bride is not supposed to check if the gown fits her or not as the wedding might not happen. The bride and the groom are also forbidden to see each other before the wedding day. 

Different beliefs are scattered around the globe regarding weddings, I don’t know if I actually believe in some of them but maybe you can comply with it as long as it’s not going to affect you that much. Who knows if those traditions and customs are true? 

The Maxi Dress

Some people simply have a profound infatuation for dresses. Dresses surely line up in a long list, party dresses, prom dresses and wedding dresses are just a few more commonly found ones lined up on this list. People generally get excited over dresses for many reasons, from greatly varying designs to amazing colors on them; the hype for dresses is obviously endless. There is however a kind of dress that seeks to work its way into the fashion world as a great dress, and it goes by the name ‘Maxi’, also known as the maxi dress. Maxi dresses have quite an interesting design and features, and of course not to mention, a wonderful history.

Some historical accounts, if properly gone through, would simply prove that the maxi dress has come a long way from its beginnings. Surely many do not know about the maxi dress, but this is what it is unique for, it had been a very fashionable piece of dress since the past and has returned in this decade bringing along another round of striking appeal. Traditionally, the maxi dress looked plainer and had a broader design on the shoulders, with some additional coverings. The modern maxi dresses however, although taking the basic structure of its traditional counterparts had been refreshed by several skillful fashion designers, bringing a revitalizing look to its entirety. Some smart designers have trimmed the dress with a manner to bring out more of the inner woman. The modern maxi dresses therefore look more chic than ever before.

The basic design of the maxi dress is such that the height stretches from the shoulders of the wearer going all the way throughout the body and finally edging at the feet. With a slightly broad and stretchable portion right in the middle where the abdomen and waist are located of course, the wearers simply have no problem presenting themselves with a beautiful look. The broadness or maneuverability of the wearer’s waist around the dress would allow for extra comfort and a sense of security in case the wearer might be on the weightier side of the scale. Women who are pregnant tend to esteem this dress greatly due to this property of the dress. While being broad, it does not make the dress ugly when compared to body-fitting ensembles; rather it emits an incomparably stunning beauty. Being both compatible as a maternity dress, and competitive as a fashionable outfit, the maxi dress surely proves itself a beautiful piece in terms of its design.

As for the patterns of the maxi dress, the fabrics used to piece the entire garment together could vary in their type. Some may be made from cotton, while others may be made with silk. This is one of the crucial things to look carefully into, especially when purchasing such dresses, it affects the handling and pricing of the product. Different fabrics require different ways of handling them; go for some fabric types that fall on the easier side of the scale to provide ease in the washing, drying or any process of maintenance. Also, whatsoever the fabric may be, so shall the pricing be, compare the prices to find a piece that fits right into the budget.

PersunmallAU Evening Dresses

Evening gowns are worn during semi-formal or formal events. Usually it is worn during parties and other events that require formal dressing, like awards night, black tie, and white tie affairs. They are made with expensive fabrics like, chiffon, satin, tencel, silk, and velvet. Usually they are also decorated with beautiful swarovskis and sequins to gather attention during the night. 

There are different styles of evening gowns, there are sheath, mermaid, a-line, empire, dropped waist, and princess – according to Wikipedia.

1. Sheath dresses are designed to hug and fit the body. It has a slight drape. I personally think that this one will be perfect to people with curves as sheath dresses emphasize the body of a person. 

2. Mermaid dresses on the other hand, from its name, resembles a mermaid’s tail. For me, it looks flattering and beautiful as sometimes the material of the ‘tail’ is different from the other half. 

3. A-line has been one of my recent faves! I love the silhouette and how flowy it looks. A-line gowns are quite fitted at the top and lightly loose on the ‘skirt’ part. It flows beautifully.

4. The Trumpet, according to Wikipedia, is just like it’s name – trumpet shaped but flares when it reaches the knees.

5. An empire style, has a fitted waistline right after the bust while a dropped waist is below the waistline. The empire style gives a high-waist look while the dropped waist just directly falls below the waist.

6. Princess style evening gowns on the other hand, would be my fave! In my opinion, they resemble ball gowns and I love the big and poofy effect it shows. Sort of like a fairytale. However, for me, I would find it hard to wear it in an event as they’re big and it will make me hard to move. But the princess like feel it gives is just irresistible. 

I mentioned about the different styles of evening dresses, now let’s choose the right color of evening dress for you. 

1. Black exudes elegance, sexiness, and mystery. Black, for me, is a staple color for formal wear. It gives beauty and class, top it off with gorgeous jewelry like diamonds, and you’ll surely look stunning.

2. White is gorgeous as ever. I also think that you can never go wrong with it. When getting a white dress, pay attention to the design and the style because it might look plain and boring. Break the ‘plainess’ of the color by adding accessories or putting on a stunning makeup – like a red lipstick.

3. Red is a color that gives off wildness and sexiness! It enhances a girl’s aura and just makes it sexy. I’m not a fan of this color but I have to agree that it is ravishing - the color makes every woman a little bit fiercer.

If ever I’d be wearing an evening gown, I would like to stick more into the lighter palette. Like nudes or pinks. Light pink is one of my favorite colors, it looks elegant and sweet. For me, pinks are perfect for young girls like me; it builds a demure and modest look.

The colors I mentioned above are just basic colors. There a lot more and you have to play with them! In choosing an evening gown, you must be creative and unique. Pick a good design and material, check the embellishments as well. You will be successful if you’ll go out of your comfort zone. People rarely wear teals and other bright colors, try that one! Break the rules and but be sure that you will still look organized and elegant. Also, know the kind of event you’re going in. Is it an opera, wedding, cocktail party, or a formal dinner? Make sure it’s appropriate for the affair. 

Collect ideas, mix them together, and you’ll have a perfect evening dress!

The high school graduation ceremony is very special in the United States

Early summer in June is a season for United States high school to hold a graduation ceremony. According to forecasting from United States National Education Statistics Center, a total of more than 3 million people graduate in high school grade 12 in the United States every year.

In 1821, the first public high school was founded in Boston, and nearly a history of 200 years. It imitated the Royal high school in Edinburgh which provided free compulsory education to young people of the United States.

In the United States, high school curriculum focuses on preparation for further education or employment. Besides that, the more important significance of high school is civic education which makes the juvenile become responsible adults in future. Sometimes, the high school graduation rate is typically close to 75% in the United States. That is to say, one will leave off his study among four students. Of course, the low high school graduation rate is regarded as crisis in the USA education by the government.

Because United States University is easy to enter and difficult to graduate, there are no students would like to study in senior school again to get into college. In fact, college admission is ended at graduation time. The students who are ready for university will leave their home in autumn. And that others students who select not to go to college start to look for jobs or join in army. High school graduation is watershed in their lives. They will go their own way whether education or employment. So high school graduation ceremony gets special attention and is also meaningful.

No wonder the United States high school students and their families make the high school graduation ceremony as a big deal. There is prom one month before the graduation. What is unique about prom is that to test male and female students’ social skills and popularity. In the prom, the girls need thick makeup while the boys dress neatly, and the prom can be said to be the puberty rite for United States boys and girls.

At that time, the female students will spend a lot of money to dress up and only makeup fee is up to $ 800. Formal dresses, rings, cake, gifts and graduation pictures are very essential. On that day, many students drive the rented limo to the prom scene, which make the cost rise perpendicularly. Hear of that one people in the United States spent 5000 dollars for her daughter’s high school graduation. The economy of scale for the whole prom was about 4 billion dollars.

In a word, because the prom makes more sense to the high school students as well as their families who care of them, it goes without saying that the parents in the United States are doting on their children. Therefore the consumption of high school graduation can bring vitality to the depressed United States economy.

A good Prom Dress Can Make a Dancer Stunning

Nowadays, prom is a newly word accepted by today’s modern world. Proms can differ from social dance, Latin dance, Tango dance, and party meeting dance, and so on. But, how to wear formally and appropriately is always a focus topic among formal dancers, especially women.

For example, Waltz Dance is a popular type of social dance, and can make the atmosphere relaxed, easy and cheerful. Also, a decent prom dress can make the whole dance experience more graceful and elegant. 

Formally, elite upper-class people are more likely to choose violet or blue violet color with wave lace on the edge of the prom dress. This style is also popularly used in The British Royalty, and some Scandinavian upper social class people as the so-called “first time met dance” activities.

So, do not downgrade the importance of the prom dress, it could be so important as cosmetics and modern hairstyle.

Usually, the Latino people like to make tango or samba as their social meeting dances. As the fast-paced rhythm dance, women from South America normally likely to choose more colorful prom dresses such as: great red, deep blue, deep violet and orange. With expansion skirt and sleeves, each pas of their dance can be more delighting and cheerful and lively.

While those Latino women are tent to wear colorful expansion longuette with wave laces, Asian people prefer cheongsam better. Cheongsam, a new way of creating formal prom dress in the ancient Chinese style can also be accepted by Koreans, Japanese, and Philipeans. While more Spanish people prefer enjoying past-paced music dances which can express one’s vigor better, Asian people like slower-down music better. Light music with soothing paced rhythm style can calm down people’s mood. Thus, light colors such as light green, porky pink, rosy red, egg yellow these colors can be best choices for Asian designers to create Chinese prom dress Cheongsam.

However, African women enjoy deep color prom dress such as: deep black, deep violet, dark brown, dark blue or coffeeish colors. And thus, their prom dresses are more likely to be closed to the women’s skin to reveal one’s slim bodyline.

To sum up, there can be different styles of prom dresses among the entire world with totally different ways to dance with. But, no matter what, their goals are the same: to portray a woman’s stunning beauty and dignity.   

The interesting wedding customs in Eastern Europe

I. Lucky shoes:

The custom--taking things away from the bride-- can be traced back to long time ago, at that time, the brides were hijacked or bought by their groom symbolically. For example, the guests would try to steal the bride's shoes on the wedding in Croatia , then the groomsman had to buy them from the looter, then gave back again to the bride.

There has ever been such a kind of custom on the Serbs’ wedding: the bride's mother-in-law has to give the bride a necklace strung by GOLD COINS, however, this kind of custom has been replaced by "stockings and a pair of sloppy shoes" at present. Perhaps this gift is to remind the bride: After passing that day all the eyes will focus on her, she had to play a role of busy wife.

II. Showily crown:

There usually has been a ceremony for wearing the crown on the traditional wedding in Romania, Turkey, Georgia and Armenia, which is also the climax of the whole wedding. The role of the crown is a symbol of the new couple’s luxury and dignity on the wedding which was given by god. The bride and groom have been crowned as the king and queen in their territory (the family of both of them), where people hope they can start their life well with their own wisdom and sincerity.

The priest will put the crown which was made of gold and special flowers on the head of the bride and groom on the wedding in Romania, and in the process of the whole wedding, he is going to exchange the bride’s crown and groom’s crown for three times separately as a token of their combination. The new couple also has to wear a veil and a wreath on their heads in Georgia's wedding. According to Armenian tradition, the bride and groom's crown have to be worn for a week after the wedding, last for eight days altogether. In the ceremony, the priest will make a collision on the bride and groom’s head (of course, gently impact), then put the two crowns decorated with gold thread on the heads of the new couple.

On the Cossacks’ wedding ceremony in the east of Russia, sometimes the groomsman and the emcee have to lift up the heavy and beautiful crown on the bride and the groom’s heads for several minutes until the priest suggests them put the crowns on the bride and groom’s head.

III. The positioned things on the heads:

Speaking of the positioned things on the heads of the new couple, cake is the common thing on the bride’s head in Russia. Within three days of the Russian traditional wedding, the bride can put all kinds of things on her head, such as veil, gold plated or silver plated crown, satin or taffeta pieces and so on. Otherwise, on the banquet of their wedding eve, people will put the silver pieces, barleys and oats on the bride and groom’s head.
