dresses, dresses, and prom

I don't know if you have had the chance to browse through some of the pictures of proms going on these days, but I had the unfortunately chance to when a friend's little cousin was tagged on the famous and infamous Facebook and I was dumbstruck. What are girls wearing these days? More and more pictures have been coming up these weeks from different proms and I just could not believe my eyes. You know those dresses that you look at in a store and make fun of telling your friend you are going to buy her that for her birthday in a sarcastic tone? And then your friend will gag at the thought of it. Well yeah imagine a whole prom full of them. Vomit green, orange, yellow brighter than the sun, or just some dress to emphasize their curves, boobs and leaving little for the guy's imagination and raging hormones. These dresses are girls' worst nightmare.

Little short dresses with ruffles and princess cuts and dreamy little details is supposedly what's in, like the picture above. If you want to wear what's in, that's cute, perfect example, not too much going on yet pretty. Yet whats going on? Where are these girls finding the horrific dark-colored dresses for their prom? I do not want to post pictures since I dont want to insult anyone in particular. But whats going on? And if its not a dark color, or showing half what their mama gave them, then its some long dress with so much going on I can't even explain it. Maybe it just happens to be all the prom pictures I've seen. Maybe you went to prom yourself or your sister and you have beautiful pictures to keep, but from my side of the world, I just dont know what has happened. Oh and the dresses with the glitter and all the sparkly stuff, um seriously someone explain whats going on there? Its halloween or club scene out there.
Girls, if its becoming a nightmare looking for the perfect dress why not opt for something just simple yet elegant and classy? And whatever happened to wanting to feel like a princess on you prom? Did teenagers just give up on this? Too much waiting for Prince Charming and rather just wear something revealing enough to catch whatever frog along the way? Yes, we know Prince Charming is not real, but at least we can enjoy the ball looking beautiful without being half naked or looking like the ugly stepsisters.

Ah sorry girls, I just had to let it out. I feel one day it might be my daughter going to prom and I just would not want to see my daughter walking showing half her boobs and behind or worst sparkling so much that her date might mistake her for a disko ball. And if I have insulted anyone please don't take it personal, this is my little place to let out. Plus at the end, no matter what, the pictures bad or good will always be good to look at years later to laugh and say, "what the hell was I thinking?" I know for sure I have a lot of those.
