So apparently I HAD to have a prom post. So here it is my dearies. The whole process to prom was far far far more stressful than I would have like. The whole date thing, the whole finding a dress thing, the whole prom group, prom dinner, after prom party ALL OF IT was stressful and expensive. I didn't know how to deal with any of it. Honestly, the night before I was chilling with my friend at her house and she told me she had to pick up her boutonniere in the morning. I was like what the hell is that. Apparently, it's the flower you buy for the guy! I had no idea, I didn't buy it clearly. So I had to wake up the morning of prom and call a bunch of flower stores to see if any of them could make me one! It was pretty funny. I was really worried that I wouldn't have fun at prom, but in the end. I had a lot of fun. So YEY! Now, there's really just a countdown until graduation. Holy Crap! I'm excited and terrified and numb and everything you could possibly imagine.
I had this whole image to wear a light dress with a loose form, but of course I couldn't find it. Instead, I wore this black dress I bought in France last year at my favorite store named Sandro. Dressing it up was a whole other adventure. I was thinking about buying these Louboutin's but instead decided to get these Steve Maddens that were very similar in style but far more reasonable in price. My necklace was from JCrew and my clutch was from Banana Republic. I got my hair done at Edo, this awesome salon in the Lower Haight that gave me the perfect prom do that wasn't too prom-y. I got my make-up done at Bobbi Brown (they were just so nice) and my nails done at Lavande in Cole Valley--that was an experience because I NEVER do my nails. AH!
Chloe and I and very different dresses. Me with my classic bitch face and chloe ready to appear in her romantic comedy.
DJ Havoc and the Pack performed
then we chilled a little bit with them after
At one point we all shoved up and were like right by the pack. I looked down and waved at someone. I was like HEY MY NAMES RACHEL! Then I looked at him. Hmmm a black guy with grillz and a microphone....YOU'RE IN THE PACK! I tried to ask him where he got his backpack, but the music was too loud to hear what he said
First and last prom done and over.
ACK!
