Dare to Share: We Want Your Grad Night and Prom Photos

| Thursday April 7, 2011

When springtime hits we get to thinking about all the Chicks out there shopping for their special prom or grad gown. We think about the excitement of finding The One, and deciding on the shoes and hair to pair with—it's often the first time a girl gets to rock such a frock.

This year, as we poured over prom gowns we got to talking about our own looks from that special night. One of us tanned herself to a crisp, donned a neon yellow gown and went in flip flops. Another, got extensions the day of, hated them and tried to pull them out. And still another of us reports that her hair was so big it elicited comments the whole night. We think we might be brave enough to show you these looks that we loved at the time, but looking back give us the cringes, and so we decided that if you show us yours, we will show you ours!

We even have a prize for the best prom look and accompanying reason for choosing that dress, or anecdote about the look or night.

Please send us your prom or grad night picture and fill out the form found here. We'll share them on the site along with ours so everyone can enjoy the glamour.
