Winter formal: the do's and the don'ts

As January is quickly approaching us I find myself thinking about what I am going to wear to winter formal, and over the years I have discovered what works, and what doesn't.


DO'S

•  wear what you want. I have seen so many girls  wearing practically the same thing at winter formal because they felt as though they needed to blend in. I say wear whatever the heck you want, you are only young once. So if you want to wear a fluffy Betsey Johnson number and all your friends are wearing bandage dresses GO FOR IT!

• dance like no one is watching. At so many dances I have been to everyone is just standing around for the first 45 minutes, be the first one to dance. Trust me everyone will thank you from saving them from the awkwardness of standing around.

• HAVE FUN!!

DON'TS  

• please wear something that covers you, it's okay to show some leg, but what is not okay is when you show some leg along with some chest. No one needs to know you that well!

• Don't act like Brittany. I don't mean to sound like your mother, but respect yourself enough to not let some guy get all over you on the dance floor.

• Never say no to a slow dance its just plain old rude, no matter how dorky the guy is just suck it up and dance for 3 minute, I promise you will survive.
