silver headpiece
General prom help, colours, hairstyles etc.?
My prom is in July and I’ve already got my prom dress, its chocolatey coppery colour, with a diamante shape on the bust. Floor length, with soft pleats falling from the bust and a ribbon halterneck. First of all I need help deciding what colour shoes and jewellry to wear, silver or gold? I have tan skin, with dark brown/black hair. My hair reaches my shoulders and at the minute I have a full fringe, I also wear glasses with red rims. Should I get contacts for prom?
What about a tiara headpiece thing?
I’m not exactly a girly girl, more of a tomboy really and I’ll most likely be doing my hair myself, so nothing to complex please 
Also any makeup tips?
Any help is much appreciated.
it sounds to me, if you’re a tomboy, that you’re not going to look like yourself that night if you continue going the way you’re going.
I’ve never seen a tomboy wear a tiara willingly…
I guess what I’m saying is: Are you trying to reinvent yourself the night of your prom? If so, yes- wear contacts, a tiara, some bling, a fancy updo.
Or, you could be yourself. Wear your glasses, forget about the stupid tiara, and wear a fantastic simple style:
Here’s a friend of mine, and a little lesson: http://www.weddingbells.ca/videos/weddings/the-perfect-updo/
you’ll be perfect.

Famous Pearl Tiaras in History
Pearl tiaras are a common part of bride’s outfit, making her feel more like a princess. A pearl tiara is one of the more traditional tiaras worn during the wedding. The pearl and other materials used in making this type of tiara match the style of most traditional gowns. This fits well with gowns in various hues such as pearl, white or off-white.
Bridal tiaras made from pearl have been used for centuries and are no longer just a fad. The pearl is associated with elegance and being stylish, albeit still being traditional. In some cultures, the shape of the pearl is associated with tears. Wearing one is said to prevent the bride from crying. Essentially, it is not just the look which makes the tiara popular but its inherent symbolism for some beliefs. Over time, some of the other symbolisms include innocence, purity and perfection, making it a popular choice for brides to wear during weddings.
Wedding tiaras made from pearls have been around for at least several centuries. Tiaras have existed since time immemorial, a special headpiece used to distinguish members of royalty. Although cultures have differing opinions on what is considered valuable, some of the more usual materials used in making tiaras include precious metals such as gold, silver, minerals and stones such as diamonds and pearls. One of the most well known cultures to use tiaras is Britain.
The British Royal Family is known to have a collection of some of the most luxurious jewelry pieces in existence. Tiaras are a part of a grand set of jewels dating back to the Commonwealth era, currently owned by Queen Elizabeth II. In a large number of official occasions, tiaras are worn instead of actual crowns. Due to the sheer weight of some of the crowns, monarchs of both genders oftentimes prefer to use tiaras, circlets or diadems.
There are a number of tiaras that have pearls owned by British Royal Family. One is the Vladimir Tiara. Also known as the Diamond and Pearl Tiara, it was first acquired and paid for by Queen Mary in 1921 from Russia’s Grand Duchess Elena Vladimirovna. Initially, the tiara actually incorporated emeralds but these were later replaced by teardrop pearls.
Another tiara which includes pearls is known as the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara, its name taken from the original donors of the tiara. This tiara was given to Queen Mary during the latter parts of the 19th century. It is distinguishable by the use of nine massive Oriental pearls, set on spikes encrusted with diamonds.
Last is what is known as the Cambridge Lovers Knot Tiara. A jeweler was appointed by Queen Mary during the early years of the 20th century to reproduce one of the British Royal Family’s tiaras, with only a few modifications were made to the original design. The tiara was constructed out of pearls and diamonds already owned by the Queen. One of the most easily recognizable users of this particular diamond and pearl tiara was the late Princess Diana.

Lady Gaga at Conseco, set by set
Our journey began with “Dance in the Dark” from The Fame Monster . Queen Gaga stood atop a flight of stairs, veiled behind a white scrim surrounding the stage. Her silhouette previewed a jacket with broad, square shoulders as she struck a series of poses from her stationary vantage point. The curtain rose and my eyes were burnt with purple glamor spewing from the jacket and matching sequin …
