francesca loves | prom!


I had my year 11 prom last night and IT WAS AMAZING. To be honest, I wasn't really looking forward to it - I'd had my dress so long I didn't like it any more, I was stressed about my make-up, and last year's year 11 had said that prom was absolutely terrible - like a year 8 disco. Actually, that's exactly what it was, except with posh frocks and suits, awesome entrances and a great atmosphere. It was fab.

I wore a navy strapless dress from Coast with lacy cream heels from BHS and a corsage I'd made myself (click here for a tutorial). Me and thirteen other friends had a red and cream vintage bus as transport, and seriously guys, the journey to prom is THE BEST THING.





Prom transport was varied - everything from stretch limos to camper-vans, and land-rovers to a huge swarm of scooters. All the girls looked beautiful, all the boys looked dashing, and thank goodness, no one had the same dress as anyone else.

Possibly the cutest moment of the night was when my boyfriend arrived holding a corsage he'd made for me (he and his friend were horrified that they'd had to learn how to use a sewing machine so they could make it). Unfortunately I never got a picture of the corsage (sad face) but I do have a picture of the remains of it - overenthusiastic dancing lead to a lot of petals falling off.



Overall I had a fabulous night, thanks to all my friends, teachers and boyfriend. To quote a girl in my year's status, #bestpromlikeevaaaaaa

Love always,
