Prom
15% Off New Arrivals at dELiA*s With Code
The Deal: 15% off dELiA*s entire new collection with code: NEWYR15. Ends Feb. 5, 2009.
b>The Lowdown: While the winter clearance sales are always our first stop, right now, with 15% off your total order, we’re thinking that dELiA*s devotees—you know who you are, and you know what size you need to be to shop there—should consider new arrivals for any spring events that might be filing up their social calendars. We’re suckers for a feminine party dress, and dELiA*s has a few we just might consider—feminine, spring-hued, and flattering shapes—were we not, oh, just a year or two past our prom/spring fling days. Right.
Our top three:
Michelle Dress, $54.50
Bridgette Dress, $44.50
Georgia Dress, $39.50
Shop: dELiA*s
Braided Beauty: Beauty Trend
What: Big or little, braids will definitely be twisting and shouting their way to dance floors everywhere this prom season.
The Word: According to PromSpot.com, braids will garner more attention than prom dresses this year (well, almost): “From a hippie look to a headband of braids to twisted buns, prom queens love this hot style.”
Our Word: OMG! It’s hard to believe that prom is around the corner. If you’re stressing about what you are going to do with all that hair on your head, try a romantic looking French braid at your hairline. Once you’ve washed and blow-dried your mane, section off the first inch and a half of your crown, from ear to ear. Starting with the side you typically part your hair on to begin your braid. Take small pieces of hair along the way until you end up on the other side of your head. Fasten with a small elastic and tuck the end behind your ear. Try not to make the braid too tight or you could end up with a horrible headache!

Site I Like: Coco Myles
So you’re watching Joan Rivers and her clone/daughter Melissa, interview celebrities on the red carpet. Celeb after celeb parades down the red carpet wearing the most fabulous dresses you’ve ever seen You say to yourself “Gee, it would be great to be able to rock that Teri Hatcher’s dress, but I’m broke and I actually have hips.”
Lucky for you, there’s Coco Myles
I love sites that allow me to customize products to my own personal style, so it’s not a surprise that I like Coco Myles. The company takes what other companies like ABS Allen Schwartz, the company known for knocking off red carpet looks, do to a higher level by allowing you to tweak celebrity looks to your own preference and for less than half the price. Customers can select a dress from either their Celebrity Inspired Collection or their more basic collection, chose the color of the dress from over 10 colors and add extras like a sash and/or a shawl, all for under $150, much cheaper than a dress from ABS.
Another reason you’ll love this site—the entire collection is available in sizes 2 to 32, which makes this the PERFECT site for those looking for stylish bridesmaid dresses, a dress to wear to a winter wedding, a prom dress, or a dress to wear to your office’s holiday bash!
