Mermaid Prom Dresses 2010

Satins, feathers, lace and sequined formal gowns will reflect star-studded qualities you will see on fashion runways for prom dresses in the US and Europe. Although you will see some black dresses at prom, most black colors will be mixed with vibrant colors and prints to reflect a dynamic color contrast. These vibrant prom dress colors are just a few ways promers and celebrities plan to steal the limelight.

It is really important to think of makeup looks as part of an ensemble. When you have selected the perfect dress, all the pieces of hair and make-up will fall into place.  Here are a few pointers on how to embrace the hot trends and the do's and dont's of Prom makeup.  The "most beautiful version of yourself" is a simple but effective use of mascara, gloss and shimmer powder, tinted moisturizer, think Kate Moss. The "sultry look" is the classic smokey eyes (kohl liner, silver and black eye shadows) with neutral lips, no one better than Sarah Jessica Parker.

Tip for promers: Wear your shoes around the house to break them in before the big dance. If you don't wear heels very often, practice will definately help to prevent any embarrassing falls during prom. New heels should always be worn in enough to cause the bottom front to get scuffed. Unscuffed bottom's can be very slippery.
