A prom is every high school's rite of passage before the Graduation Ball. Every teen girl out there will be looking for that precious prom dress to wear in the big event. Parents, on the other hand, will make sure that their teens will be dressed to the nines just like royalties and at the same time, it will not break their budget in the process.

The dresses are pretty, youthful, colorful and very fashionable too. Due to the many selections you can see in the site, you may find yourself choosing not just one prom dress from the myriad of lovely gowns.  I checked the site and was really astonished because I too, found myself choosing many gowns from the prom dresses.

To help me narrow down my search for the best dress for my daughter, I actually asked her to choose the top 5 gowns that she likes. Her choices are all beautiful and the prices are well within our budget so I am sure that we will end up with a fine selection in DressFirst.com. My daughter has her own criteria when choosing the right dress but she knows how much she can spend on one.

The first thing she considered in choosing her perfect dress is the color. She prefers colorful gowns that really pop and lively like the ones pictured below. The color of the prom dress will complement her skin complexion.

Her next criteria in choosing the perfect gown is the style. She prefers billowy gowns with A-line cuts or even the asymmetrical cuts and also one-shoulder style just like the photo below. According to my daughter, the one-shoulder style will accentuate her slim built.

Her preference leans on above the knee hemlines or ankle length.

And lastly, she loves a gown that will make her look youthful and like a modern princess. Her best bet is the one below which I agree with. The dress is one-shoulder, A-line cut with a billowy feature, asymmetrical and in the color that is perfect for her.

The price of this beautiful gown is US$155.99 after discount. It is also free shipping worldwide so you get to save a lot from DressFirst.com.

Her perfect dress is the one that fits all her criteria and I am happy that we found it here in DressFirst. For your prom dress needs, visit Dressfirst.com and take your pick.

A Weighty Issue

Do you remember my post about my quest to lose weight because I have a wedding to attend to? Well, as an update to that, I have been using the treadmill 5 times a week and have cut back on my rice intake and white bread. So far, I have lost a kilo. My weight is not budging the way I would like it to maybe due to my age and hormones. I feel my clothes slightly getting lose but the desired result is not yet evident. The double-chin is still there. The muffin top is still there. The flabby arms are still there but... the pretty face is still there! harharhar!!! Joke!!!! Got yah!

I still have a week to go before I will wear my gown so I'll double my running time and eat more veggies without sacrificing a good, nutritious meal. If I don't lose weight by then, I'll just continue the quest because I want to wear a bikini when I go to Florida or Los Angeles this May! Yes!

What a Dismay!

Uh-oh! I knew I have been very bad with my eating habits the past few weeks because of the holidays. How can someone resist mom's home-cooked meals since the nearest decent meal I can prepare is popping an instant meal in the microwave and that's it! I know, I am bad. Like I earlier conveyed, I never liked cooking so if someone cooks the kind of meals I love very well, who am I to resist???

With all the gorging happened during the holidays, I was so dismayed to see how my measurements shoot up like a NASA rocket ship going to space exploration. I am not kidding but I can call myself "Little Miss Piggy" now...hahahaha. I cannot believe the figures right before my eyes as my daughter laughs her bum off on how big the numbers are on my body measurements. As in B-I-G! Coming from an ex-super-skinny person like me, yup, the numbers are way too big for me to fathom. Wow! How can I ever, and not just ever, successfully at that, lose weight for good? I have lost and regained and lost again and when I lose it, I just want it to stay that way. Any tips??? I am desperate now and this calls for serious measures. Not gastric-bypass. I think I am still skinny for that but I need healthy habits to kick-in again. I need proper food to eat at proper times. I know that when you speed-eat, you tend to gorge more. I think I have to stop that.

Oh my, and I have a wedding to attend to and I need to look fab in a long, formal gown. Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Seriously, like the Beatles sang, "Help!!!!!"
