How do you make a non formal dress look formal?
So I have a spring formal coming up but my mom got me a dark blue casual dress instead of formal how do I make my dress look formal without asking my mom to spend any money on anything? Please reply before April 19!
Since your dress is a solid color this will definitely be much easier than if there was a lot of pattern! You can always jazz up solid items with jewelry or shoes - look through your closet, or perhaps plan to borrow something from a friend. You can also dress up a solid dress with a scarf or belt. If you're looking for a way to get a more formal outfit without your mom having to spend money, then maybe try to pick up some babysitting, save money and buy yourself a different dress or some accessories.

I have a formal event to attend coming up in a few months and I'm already freaking out about a dress. This is like gala type thing. Usually I'm an uber nerd. My idea of dressing up is wearing something other than jeans.I want to look spectacular in maybe a tea-length dress, but am really unsure...

Its a really pretty dress, I'm guessing not as long as your dad wants, but it could be used again, I hate buying a dress that I'm only going to wear once. I think the dress will work. If it is a more casual wedding, I doubt the guest will get dresses like it.

Will you spend more time with your Mom on Mother's day? How many hours you plan spending with her?Are you like me, very busy with work and life. Do you find little or no time to spend with your loving and deserving mother on that special day?
