Warning - dodgy hairdo ahead.

I've been tagged by the gorgeous Mary of Undergrad Fab to participate in the prom flashback.

The rules:

-Upload your prom (school ball if you're in Oz) picture.
-Don’t forget to include the year it was taken. Again, don't be shy. The older the better.
-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!
-Copy and paste the rules to your blog.
-Tag 5 others!

This was taken at my year 11 ball, in 1995. I had a date but I didn't like the professional picture of us together so I didn't buy it.

The dress was knee length and flouncy. My hair was a bit of a wreck - I didn't plan my hairdo and left it to the hairdresser on the day. She underestimated the time it would take to blowdry and curl my thick, straight hair and it ended up frizzing.

If only I could go back in time and tell the teenage me that tweezers were not the enemy I thought they were.

I tag:

I'm dying to do this but I don't actually have any pictures of my formal in my possession. Yours was the same year as mine though.

Thanks for the tag, but I don't have any photos of my end of school ball either. Its not as big a thing in luxembourg and there wasn't a photographer or anything. I just wore a simple black dress I still have.

loved yours though, I love how your smile is the same but the hair is massive!

Oh I love it! Thanks for the tag. I'll have to get my prom pic scanned. I loved my dress and have wonderful memories of my senior prom. Oh and I had some brows too :-)
