Shopping Guide: Party outfits

So you can't help spending tons of money on cute clothes? Then keep reading my blog because I'm starting a "series"  called "Shopping Guide".  Just read it whenever you want to CB (cut back).
Leave a comment telling what shopping guide you want next! Like "School Outfits"
So here is out first ever installment of.... SHOPPING GUIDE!

The very first rule: NO: Aeropostale, Hollister,or  Abercrombie and Fitch
If you cant stay away from Aero, or if you have gift cards to Hollister than keep reading:
Fine. Go to aeropostale. BUT you may only go if there is a sale or you have a gift card. If you have a gift card I would still stay away, because you never know when you might  snap  when you see that ultra-hot $99.99 dress or outfit. 

Dresses:Okay, so we learned to stay away from expensive stores. Find your dress based on the dress code of the party.


SEMI-FORMAL
Heres a tricky one. Semi formal is a real pain. The trick is to find the most beautiful dress ever. But it has to be short.  See? If it was long it would be formal. So cut of the longness, taking away half. Therefore making it it SEMI- formal. Heres a suggestion. Check out  www.gojane.com/  They have a huge selection full of cute things.  I got that website out of a seventeen magazine, so its womens clothing. But if you can shop at PS, which is like Aeropostale for kids sizes 14, 14/16 and 16 you can get womens clothes in S or XS. But the dresses will probably be longer if you still fit in kids size. So if you are kids size then the shortest dress is the way to go, it'll look a tad larger  on you. also try     http://www.wetseal.com/home.jsp   They also have the cutest dresses ever, with $5 dollar shipping. If you go in the "sale" section theres actuall dresses for $15!!!


FORMAL:
Oh, here we go. Formal is not to hard, but not easy either. Check out http://www.debshops.com/home/index.jsp. They JUST came out with a new Prom 2011 collection.
So heres the formal requierments:
AT LEAST PAST THE KNEE!
Elegant


No Dress/ Birthday party:
Definetly a graphic tee, skinny jeans, a little blazer and high tops.
If your not the girl to wear skinny jeans then a cami, a cardigan, bootcut, high tops. Now top it off with tons of jewlery.

HOW TO KNOW THE CODE WHEN ITS UNKNOWN:
Ah, the age old question: What should I wear?
Well, your school valentines dance should definetly call for a short dress with a necklace and possibly a braclet. Since its a school dance, dont over do it.  But for a spring time school dance maybe a bright, short dress. If your not the dresses-for-school-occasions-type, then skinny jeans or leggings with a long shirt or a tunic. Top off with sandals.  As for the dress? Don't be afraid to wear converse. As long as it looks good, go with it!
