What I Wore: Prom Night

Dress - Missguided | Shoes - New Look | Clutch - FCUK

It was my Year 11 leavers prom last night, so I thought I'd share my look for the occasion with you all: 

I'm really not a fan of those bright puffy "princess" dresses that most teenage girls seem to wear on their prom night nowadays, so I decided to keep it nice and simple with an elegant mini dress from Missguided. The lace pattern on the bodice is just beautiful and the backless design gives it  more of a summery feel, despite the fact you're still wearing black. 

I paired the dress with some strappy New Look sandals that aren't so high that you wobble whilst you walk and a cute FCUK clutch (which I actually found in a charity shop - shh), then finished the look off by adding a pop of colour in the form of red lippie. My prom date, Daniel, also bought me the lovely flower corsage you can see in the photos! It even smells amazing.

So although my look is a bit different to everyone else, I still love it! Why spend hundreds of pounds on a massive sparkly dress that you'll only wear once when you can look just as good (or even better) wearing something gorgeous and unique from a high street chain? That's my philosophy on it all.

What do you think of my prom look? 
What did you wear to your own prom?
