Hi Readers!
As you all know, my prom weekend is long past. The days following were devoted to sleep deprivation recovery time, and it now feels like prom was but a dream! Now, my mind is wrapped around thoughts of my upcoming graduation and long-awaited summer vacation.

Hi prommers!
How are you all doing with your prom plans? Did anyone have their prom yet? Mine is in just 2 weeks! Eeep! My school's junior prom has passed, so I've been poring over pictures and getting excited for the big senior dance! I convinced two more of my friends to register for prom -- woo for my group getting bigger! Remember, just because you don't want a date doesn't mean you can't still attend! You'll have a total ball at the ball with pals!

Dearest Readers,
It's finally here! The week of prom! Last weekend, I went to Lady Gaga's epic concert at the Electric Factory, so I feel like I've thoroughly brushed up on my dance moves. I mean, Gaga's best advice is to "Just Dance," so I may as well follow that mantra! But if dancing was my only worry, prom would be quite easy. Unfortch, with two proms in two consecutive days, I need to plan ahead for my beauty regime.

Did you watch our teen.com TV vids?! How fun are they? I've posted them to the side so you can check them out, and teen.com has all sorts of fab videos on DIY's, and hair and makeup how-to's. I'm totally addicted!
Hi readers!
There's less than two weeks until prom, and I've been feeling fab! With the weather finally warming up and spring making its elusive appearance, I am tempted to grab my largest pair of Jackie O sunglasses and a big ol' bottle of SPF 40 and break out a beach blanket to catch a few rays while jamming along to some hot hits. In order to get me pumped for my personal night of celebrity-dom, the long-awaited prom, I've compiled a pretty sweet list of Studio 54-inspired music and stylish, classic flicks.

Hi everyone!
I've been practicing poses and dress shopping like crazy with Sophia (I even snapped a shot of her pretending to look as glam as me! Click to see it! Ha ha!).

Hi again!
Have you fig'd out your pre-prom plans? The norm is to take photos right before the party so I looked through some old pics from last year's junior prom for ideas. All I can say is: Wow!

With all the buzz around school, it's no wonder that date disasters are already happening. A friend of mine needs a date to prom and the one dude she wants to go with has zilch idea. But, a guy friend of ours who is in love with her really wants to take her!

So unfortunately, last Friday was my high school's senior prom. There wore gorgeous dresses, fine dining, a night of dancing... and no Kristen! I was in Saint Louis, which despite its many charms, can't hold a candle to prom. However, I already creeped as many pictures as I possibly could have, so it's almost like I was there, at least in spirit.
As the gossip trickles in from the big night that I missed out on, I've become really preoccupied by one huge prom trend... tanning!

What up, guys?
I hope you had a fantastic week! Have you been thinking about your dream dress? Did you go shopping? Did you find it? I took my own advice (see evidence, left)!
My BFF Sophia and I began our expedition for her dress on a sour note. I had a list of promising shops to check out, but the first two were not at all what we were looking for. Luckily, the third store had a whole prom section.
Hi readers!
So I just got back from a fantastic trip to NYC, where I finally met my fellow prom blogger, the amazing Elysia! We were uber-pumped at the prospect of jump-starting our acting careers by starring in video clips which will soon premier on Teen.comTV! So be on the lookout for some trendy tips about discount dress shopping, inspiration, and prom-perfect yoga poses!

Hi guys!
Last week, I left ya hangin' about the drams! My friends have been totally chill but there is the serious date debate. I am going with my best friend(s); we'll be each others dates and we wanna recruit more peeps! But the other singles in the gang are searching for some randoms to escort them! Whatever...
"Prom Dress" makes two images rush to mind. First: the perfect dress to laugh and dance and have fun in with your best friends. Second: an unfortch soul in a huge and fluffy or too-snug dress with a handful of misplaced cut-outs. Let's avoid this, ladies. Click on to catch my prom dress shopping tips!
Hi everyone!
It's me, back for prom blog take TWO! So I'm not sure if I am emphasized this point before, but prom season is FULL of drama. Case in point: I can't attend my own school's prom. I recently found out that I am a finalist for a scholarship, so I am being whisked away for an interview weekend (YAY!) But I AM a prom blogger, after all, so this situation had to be remedied with haste, haste, haste!
