Don’t Stress – We’re Here To Help You For Prom

For those of our readers out there who are not yet ancient, you are probably well-aware that prom season is coming up. If that’s the case, you are probably already freaking out about how much you have to do before the big night: get a dress, get a date who doesn’t suck, get a limo (Do kids still do that these days?).

Hopefully you’re not stressing too much, because I did, and of course got a huge stress pimple the day before. It was straight out of a nineties sitcom. And so for those of you counting down until prom, I’m going to lay down some advice that will quell some of your anxiety.

1) Don’t get a spray tan.

2) Check out Macy’s mstyleLab. They’ve got a lot of dresses inspired by recent trends, like sparkly dresses, open-back dresses, and lots of bright colors. Online shopping makes everything easier. And in the video below Style Lab experts Dana and Joslyn give us a rundown of leading looks for this year’s prom season.

3) And finally, don’t worry. Seriously, just go to Macy’s mstylelab because they have everything you need. I’m not lying, go look for yourself.

    For those who aren’t ancient? oh,please. look at the top stories on this site. while i LOVE the gloss i wouldnt want my high school daughter reading about sex workers. know your audience.

      Yes because there are no early budding high school girls with snarky feminist leanings, just girls reading j14 and weeping at the sight of Justin Biebers abs. Let’s shelter teenage girls and not have sane rational discussions about things that they probably have already developed opinions on. My sister is a teen and knows about sex workers *gasp*. Its the internet. She has probably accessed worse things through tumblr telling her to be thin enough to have a thigh gap and to fuck the guy she friendzoned because he is a nice guy.

      Fourteen-year-old reader here. A lot of my friends like this site, too. As Cee said, there are high school girls with ‘snarky’, feminist views and this is simply somewhere we can read about honest, grown up takes on certain topics. To be perfectly frank, this isn’t as bad as most places on the Internet. Here people have truthful, rational discussions on topics that matter to ME and my future as woman in this country and I find it incredibly reassuring. Not to sound like a special snowflake or anything, but teens aren’t all the same; some of us like certain things, others like the opposite. I like The Gloss, simple as that.
