all dressed up

Miss Jessica from Classy in Philadelphia, one of my new favorite bloggers, did a wonderful post on all of the dresses she wore to dances and such.  I couldn't help but copy her idea because one of my favorite things about high school were, of course, the dances.

I didn't start going to high school dances until my junior year.  I didn't meet Thomas and start dating him until my senior year...therefore, my dates my junior year are intentionally left out :).  Thomas and I went to different schools, and because it was our senior year and we didn't want to miss out on our own dances.  We each took each other to our school's dances.  That's FOUR dances in one year, people.  But it made for lots of dresses, pictures and memories (er, and money spent).

So without further adieu...

p.s. Sorry if some of these pictures are huge.  I can't figure blogger out sometimes.


Junior year Formal 2006.  My favorite dress, ever.

Junior Prom 2006.

My Formal 2007.  2nd favorite dress.


Thomas's Formal 2007.  I borrowed this dress from a friend and I LOVED it.


Thomas's Senior Prom 2007.  Another borrowed dress that fit perfectly with their theme, Willy Wonka.


My Senior Prom 2007.  Um, I bought the dress for the shoes :)

You looked so amazing in all of them! I wish we were cool enough to wear short dresses to our dances... I wouldn't have the guts to post mine, they were so bad. lol

I can't get over what a little hottie you are... !! And you and Thomas are too cute together.
I loved how ALL those dresses looked on you, but yes, I'd have to agree-- that gold one was simply stunning. Like something out of glamorous old Hollywood.
I have such a BEAUTIFUL cousin. :)
