5 perfect Homecoming dresses

Check these out, too...

  • Trends we heart: Americana
  • 6 handbags every girl should own
  • Exactly what to wear to your summer job interview
  • Ed. Obsession: INTERN TAKEOVER: Muscle Tees Under $20
The clock is ticking and you're in a rush to get the perfect Homecoming getup. Fret not, fashionista. Before you hit the mall, we've got the best frocks to rock on the dance floor with the accessories to match. Now go—your big night awaits!


Red-carpet worthy

Take a hint from Lea Michele at the Emmys and go for a red hot li'l number. Don't forget to smile and wave to the paparazzi (aka your BFF).

 
 
Savoy Ballroom Pleated Red Dress, $42, lulus.com


Best paired with... nude stilettos and dangling crystal earrings.


Pep it up

One word: peplum. That flirty flounce at the waist is all we needed to see to fall for this purr-fect leopard print dress.

 
 
Spot the Fashionista, $48, modcloth.com

Best paired with... red pumps with a gold cuff.


Shimmer and shimmy

Wanna stand out in the crowd? Look no further than a glitzy sequin dress. Just wait 'til you stand underneath those lights for an instant disco ball effect.

 
 
Sequin-Frenzy One Shoulder Dress, $43, charlotterusse.com


Best paired with... a cocktail ring and a black handbag.


Stock up on colorblock

Fall formals don't equal dull dresses. Soak in the bright 'n' bold trend with a multi-colored jewel-toned frock.

 
 
Speechless Colorblock Strapless Dress (Juniors), $68, nordstroms.com


Best paired with... neutral or gold heels and blue or green jewelery.


Lovely li'l LBD

Here it is, girlies, the no-fail frock perfect for any swanky event: the LBD. We heart the darling roses on the shoulder of this understated number.

 

Rosette Shoulder Dress, $23, forever21.com


Best paired with... a pop of colorful heels and a contrasting clutch.

ok so on sunday i have my bffl's b-day party on sunday its @ dave and busters so we'll be inside. I need some advice for what im gonna where. plz help!!!!!




Ah I love Dave & Busters, it's so much fun! You'll want to be comfy but cute since you'll be eating and playing games, so I would go for a tee shirt (maybe with a pattern - stripes?) with skinny jeans and cute flats. Pair it  with some sweet accessories like bangle bracelets or a headband, then bring a light cardigan just in case they have the AC pumped up. And have fun!!!!

Me and my friend will know eachother for a year this comming month. We are extremely close and even are younger sisters are friends. She has these two other friends that i kinda knew before but since the Beginning of the school year have gotten alot closer to. But lately i've been feeling like she doesn't even care about me, she just cares about the other two. I am very involved with sports at my school and i feel like whenever i talk about that or My favorite pro teams and how there doing she never listens or cares. And whenver we hang i feel like i have to invite myself to go. All she wants to talk about is the brother of one of our other two friends or someother boy. I even walked away from them at lunch today and it seemed like they didn't even care or notice that i was gone. What should i do?




Hey girl,

It's totally normal for you to have different interests, friends, and lives from your close friends. In fact, that's healthy! And it's also totally normal for her to not be super interested in some things you might have a passion for - sports may just not be her thing, while boys and crushes might not be yours right now. That's ok! Try to turn the convos elsewhere for now and see if you still have enough in common to salvage the friendship. It's natural for friends to grow apart as they get older, sometimes for good. But don't give up without trying to see if you're just going through a stage - you could totally get through this with a little work and be better friends than ever Smile

okay so i am going to my friend's b-day party tomorrow and i have no idea what to wear, any suggestions? the high will be 58 degrees, i also got over a bad sickness recently and i have a sore throat, any ideas on how i can soothe my throat?
thank you so much!
xoxo
sail Smile
PS plz answer ASAP!




Hey girlie,

Go totally fall casual! Jeans with a pair of high boots and a striped crew neck sweater, topped off with a light scarf would look so cute and crisp for fall. As for your sore throat, try cough drops, decaf tea with honey, or a sore throat spray to take the edge off the pain Smile

You guys always post things too late for some people... I get that some people don't start school until like September, but I start school the first week of August and homecoming is the first week of September. So a lot of your posts come out too late for them to be any use to me.




Sorry hon! We'll take that into account next time. xoxo kerra
