Unfairness

My topic today is prom. In Scotland, or at least, in my school we don't have homecoming or proms. We do have a formal but that is only for the sixth years-F.Y.I the people in their last year leaving school- anyhow I am very jealous of Americans and whoever else has dances at their schools. Watching teen movies where these girls spend weeks on end picking out their perfect dresses and the perfect shoes and the perfect bag and having the perfect hairstyle and in general to have the perfect prom make me desperately want one for myself so I too can pick out all the perfect things. A night they will "never forget" is how prom is described. 
A while ago I watched this film called Prom featuring Aimee Teegarden and she plans prom all by herself after all the other members of the committee drop out and this rebel guy has to help her out. GUESS WHAT? *SHE FALLS FOR HIM!* Anyway, I really liked the film even though it was a Disney one. It did look magical, the prom I mean. The main character also had a really pretty dress... 
I also watched Pretty In Pink with my mum recently and it made me want to possess to ability to sew and make my own clothes. Molly Ringwald as the leader of the "brat-pack" took apart somebody else's prom dress and made it her own as pictured above.  I now adore 80's films and want to watch every teen movie made in the decade out there. I thought I would add a couple of photographs of prom dresses I would love to wear to my own one. Obviously I like the strapless/bright-coloured/pastel/sequiny ones. Although I wouldn't normally go for all the glitter and stuff I must admit you need a little bit of sparkle on your prom dress after all, it is a "night to remember"...

I want to make sure I fairly credit everyone for their pictures so prom poster, molly ringwald, green dress, gold dress, girls in dresses

Keep wishing,
Lily

Question #1: Should I Grow Out My Fringe?

We have all been really really busy these past few weeks so I do apologise - it wasn't really the best time to set up a blog with exams not that far away - but on the other hand, I have a number of posts planned for the next couple of weeks.

Okay so now I've started making different types of posts to make me continue blogging. First of all there was 'Dress Up' and now there is 'Question'. Question is a post where I have a question for all you readers out there and would really really appreciate an answer. So my question to you is should I grow out my fringe? I've been pondering about it for a while now. I've had it for 4 consecutive years now and I'm getting a bit fed up of it. I have grown it out and then got it chopped back in before so I can get it back.  I made a list of pros and cons for the change and included a picture of myself so you can see what it looks like at the moment. 

Pros of no fringe:
  • A change of hairstyle
  • You can see my face
  • I can do different hairstyles
  • I can get it cut back in if I don't like it.
  • Easier to maintain
  • Hairdressers aren't going to cut my fringe squint
Cons of having no fringe:
  • It takes ages to grow out
  • I look really pale without a fringe
  • My hair looks very flat and limp
  • You can see my weird eyebrows


I am sorry that I am wearing sunglasses but I couldn't find any other nice pictures with my fringe looking semi-normal. I do like those sunglasses though ;)

All help is appreciated. :D Comment below please.
