DON'T Bring your ex as your date.
Sure, it's romantic. He was your first love, your BF throughout the years, and way back in grade 9, you vowed to head to senior prom hand-in-hand. You can't break that promise, can you? Oh yes you can! Going with your ex will lead to d.r.a.m.a. Trust.
DON'T Be matchy matchy.
It's tacky. And too much of one thing is never a good thing. Be especially cautious with prints. Animal print is a big trend this prom season, but it should only be seen in your dress, clutch or shoes. Wear it in all 3 and you may be mistaken for a zebra.
DON'T Assume you have a ride home.
Prearrange to be picked up or dropped off by a designated driver. Enough said.
DON'T Wear uncomfortable shoes.
As fabulous as those 6-inch heels are and as lean as they make your legs look - it's not worth it. You've got a long night ahead of you and sitting out your last dance is not an option.
DON'T Blow your budget.
Head into prom preparations with a budget in mind and do your best to stick to it. There are plenty of fabulous dresses with little price tags attached, a ride from your older sibling is just as cool - if not cooler - than riding in a limo, and borrowing your mom's pearls is way more chic than buying unnecessary costume jewels.
