Family / School Requires 'pre-approval' Of Prom Dresses by fionana: 3:42am On Mar 25, 2015
ADAMS COUNTY, PA - It's standard operating procedure for prom-goers to share dozens of photos following their big night.

A Pennsylvania High School is kicking up all kinds of controversy, however, in asking for photos of student long prom dresses 'before' the big dance.

Beginning this month Delone Catholic High School in Adams County began a new policy requiring female students to bring in a photo of their prom dress for pre-approval.

School administrators are defending the policy, saying it is necessary to uphold Catholic values and moral integrity.

Students have a different view of the photo requirement, saying it isn't fair for those who have already spend hundreds on dresses that either won't be approved, or will require expensive alterations to meet the dance dress code."They spend so much time picking out the dress of their dream a fantasy dress if you will," said dress shop owner Simone Hostetter, who is altering many of the dresses already purchased by female students.

That's precisely the point, says Delone Catholic principal Dr. Maureen Thiec, who says students have had plenty of notice and time to either buy or change a dress to meet the new standards. "That's a big expense to be turned away at the door and we are trying to eliminate that difficulty."

Fashion / Saving: Don't Break The Bank On That Bridesmaid Dress by fionana: 3:35am On Mar 25, 2015
If you have ever been in a bridal party, you know that while exciting, it can also be expensive.

From the gift to the bachelorette party, the average bridesmaid spends about $1,700 to help the bride celebrate the big day.

Today we are helping you say yes to that bridesmaid dresses under 100, without spending a fortune.

The average bridal boutique dress can run up to $300, but there's a new online service called Gather and Gown, where brides and her maids can gather around their computer and shop together for dresses that all fall under the $200 range.

You order online like you would any other dress, the shipping is free, and you can send it back if it doesn't fit.

At Little Borrowed Dress in New York City, you can rent a dress for about $75 - kind of like how men can rent tuxedos.

Fashion / ASOS Is Adding Budget-friendly Bridesmaid Dresses To The Mix! by fionana: 2:44am On Mar 17, 2015
adies looking for another option for more affordable bridesmaid dresses have a new spot to shop: ASOS! The British mega brand has just expanded its occasion wear section, and tucked in among the cocktail frocks and party dresses are styles created with bridesmaids in mind.The site's huge in the U.K. (when I was in London last, working on this story, girls told me that most everyone owns something from ASOS). There's a ton of merchandise online, and while I obsessively browsed it while searching for my own modest maternity bridesmaid dresses, the addition of pieces called out as options for 'maids should make the quest easier. The dresses, organized as multiple silhouettes in the same color or pattern, will join the site on Sunday. For now, check out the rest of the party dresses here.I'm happy to report other new brands have popped up recently with more budget-friendly options, even if it's as simple as packaging a collection of dresses with nuptials in mind. ModCloth has a ton under $100 and Ann Taylor's offerings mostly range between $150 and $300.

Fashion / Macon Woman Hosts Prom Dress Giveaway by fionana: 2:32am On Mar 11, 2015
Prom night is meant to be a fun night, but the bill can add up quickly.

One young woman took that into her own hands Saturday by hosting a free prom dress giveaway.

Amaris Hawkins started collecting gently used cheap petite prom dresses a few weeks ago.

The number of donations was up to about 150.

On Saturday, Hawkins says about 30 girls came to pick out a free dress at Covenant Life Cathedral.

She says paying for a dress, hair and makeup on top of college application fees and senior dues could rob girls out of their chance to attend prom.
"I wanted to create an opportunity for young girls to have one less worry their senior year, so we decided to do a dress drive to offset the cost for senior prom," Hawkins said.

Hawkins says no one walked out of the dress drive empty-handed.

She plans to schedule another dress drive in the near future to give away the leftover dresses.
