Jon: Boys will be boys! But what on earth do guys wear to prom? I mean, there are so many different types of dresses and shoes, but pants and shirts can't be extremely unique!
Sandhya: MIRACLE. Show me show me!!
xY: Sew for me? (: Buying new dress more fun lah, but -perhaps- ... I rather like my Sec 4 dress anyway, it's different (:
Sheryl: Yup I've been obsessively checking Asos but their dresses seem a little too casual! Their sales are great though! (The burgundy dress is BCBG in case you want! And because I know you can afford hehe!)
mane: Is it very expensive? Any recommendations where to find good tailors? I shall consider! :D (By the way, do I know you?)

Thanks to mane, I'm now considering custom-making! Unfortunately I'm pretty clueless about this, so if anyone has any recommendations of where to find a good and affordable tailor (by my standards, affordable means less than $200 or I might as well not tailor), please please please let me know! Thank you very much (:

It seems to be the trend to discuss prom dresses on blogs nowadays, so I shall hop onto the bandwagon. Realising that if I want to order online I better hurry up, but I don't really know where to begin. (Online is risky but it means I don't have to move an inch, apart from clickety-clicking my mouse :D ) If all else fails, I'll buy one right after A's and risk wearing the same stuff as a handful of other girls.
My conditions for a prom dress are simple.
1. Shorter, girlier and younger works better for me than the classic long, elegant and princessy. (Because I'm neither slim nor tall.)
2. Avoid black.
3. Avoid Daniel Yam. (Sorry if you're getting one, their dresses are elegant but not unique and not quite my type!)
4. Ridiculously cheap, please! Eg. Less than $100 would be terrific.
Disappointingly, I have found many dresses that fulfil my first two requirements but of course not the last. Hahaha check out the prices:
I mean, sure I could use my savings and all, but I personally don't see the point in splurging so much money on something you're probably going to wear once. Or splurging on anything, really. Cheapo talking here! :D (Banana should agree haha.)
Oh prom, prom. Such a hassle. Most unfortunately, the narcissist in me (that I try to suppress in vain) refuses to ignore the triviality of looking decently good during prom. Gah.
