Flashback


I was tagged with the Prom Queen tag by Andrea of My Chihuahua Bites. Here are the rules:
  1. Upload your prom picture. If you don't have one, email your mom and have her send it to you.
  2. Don’t forget to include the year it was taken. Again, don't be shy. The older the better.
  3. Grab the "Prom Queen" button and add to your post. Isn't the button adorable? Thank you Danielle, The Design Girl. You must check out her fabulous sale!
  4. Copy and paste the rules to your blog.
  5. Tag 5 others!
It should be noted that I was hardly the prom queen back in the day. In fact, I didn't even take a date to the senior prom. Just went with a bunch of my girlfriends. Which explains why there are zero pictures of me from my prom. I dug and dug and dug but couldn't come up with a single one.

So, you'll get my choir ball picture instead. This was the same year and same month as prom, so it's close enough.


That's me, circa 1999. Pretty much identical to me today. Apparently, I'm not much of a risk-taker. Anyway, I loved that dress. The roses are all embroidered and the leaves are this shiny green/gold thread. I wish I had a picture of the gathers on the back because that was totally the best part of the dress.

It's hard to believe that was 10 years ago!

Now it's these lovely ladies' turn to share the embarrassment prom love:

The ladies at Cute on the Cheap - were you both cute and cheap back in the day?
Kimberly at Fab Finds Under $50 - were you a bargain hunter in your high school days?
Cole at All the Small Stuff - a faithful commenter who shares my love for cookie dough and hibachi.
Sass at Are You Sassified - one of my favorite new funny bloggers. I'm sure she could tear this post up!
Leah at Make It Fabulous - Leah and I were friends when we were just budding fashionistas. We lost touch during the high school years, but I'm sure she made her prom-look fabulous.
