Lets all blog about dresses!

I've been wanting to blog about dresses for a while but everyone else beat me to it!  My main reason was with prom happening last month I've seen a ton of pictures posted. Normally I love prom dresses but it seems the fad this year was SLUTFEST 2012!

When I was growing up I fantasized about prom this is what I remember:
Metallic colors, crushed velvet with huge bows.  Whatever the color of dress there had to be a huge bow somewhere on the dress.

I don't have pictures of when I went to prom but the popular style of dress was:
I just grabbed this pic off the web.  Dresses were somewhat simple maybe with some soutache or sparkly adornments.  Dresses that looked like different shades were also popular. 

Then I remember when I was student teacher and chaperoned a prom I was amazed at how tiny the dresses became.  This year I saw a few pics of girls going to prom and in each of these pics the dress was equally as tiny!  Why wear this:

The pic is from Forever21 and although it's on the cheap side and probably proper for clubbing it won't forgive any curves a woman might have and yeah some women no matter their body type like to rock it.  I get it.  But why wear skin tight mini dresses when you can wear this:

Ok so maybe I personally wouldn't have gone so pink...or so frilly but I definitely would stay away from these outfits....it's been done before get over it....stop with the starburst, gum, soda pop, and duct tape dresses!
