That top shot of you is soooo pretty. Lo...Wow Lime!<br />That top shot of you is soooo pretty. Love how you looked with that side shot.<br /><br /><I>It fit them like a glove and they declared, "We never knew you were as skinny as us!" I resisted the urge to smack them and extended grace when they asked if they could wear it to their respective proms by granting permission to do so.</I>Ouch!<br /><br />Don't feel bad. I told a female friend (and fellow blogger) who is 53 that honestly, I can appreciate a beauty of a teen but do not find anyone under 25 "sexy." I think a woman is sexiest at 30-35, because they simply don't have the curves at that age. And don't mean to be a d***, but when they do have the curves at that age, that usually doesn't bode well for when they hit 30-35.<br /><br />Who I find the sexiest celebrities out there (in no order):<br /><br />Salma Hayek - age 42<br />Monica Bellucci - age 44<br />Kate Winslet - Age 33<br />Kate Moss - Age 35<br />Penelope Cruz - Age 35<br />Sophie Marceau - Age 42<br /><br />Heh. I had to look up their ages and didn't realize my fave of all is 44.<br /><br />FYI - My fave of the 80s when I was in HS was Michelle Pfeiffer. Loved her.<br /><br />Back on topic - Good job with the dress. Sewing is actually something a survivalist takes seriously. I actually can sew, but it looks ugly. You make it look good.<br /><br /><I>It was at this point I reminded her of the advice she gave me when she was but 8 years old and I complained about something I had to endure for a semi formal occasion, "It's fashion. It has to hurt."</I>Glad I'm a guy. You can't get me in a tux. Only time in my life I was in one was Prom, but never again. Can't breathe in those stupid things.<br /><br />The Metal outfits I wore back on stage (20 years ago) were actually pretty comfortable, and they looked sexy. Once again, glad I'm a guy.The Zombieslayerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00739873812900433755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17765202.post-20440985000997269142009-05-16T15:36:00.000-04:002009-05-16T15:36:00.000-04:00Beautiful nice blogBeautiful nice blogFree Blog Directoryhttp://www.freeweburldirectory.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17765202.post-87957002886305114112009-05-16T07:32:00.000-04:002009-05-16T07:32:00.000-04:00The Lovely Limeys~ most beautimous :)The Lovely Limeys~ most beautimous :)KFarmerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11060166642694814717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17765202.post-78851595151475872462009-05-15T23:38:00.000-04:002009-05-15T23:38:00.000-04:00seriously, your dates looked like---um---MEN! shoc...seriously, your dates looked like---um---MEN! shocking.

OUCH!<br /><br />hehehe<br /><br />The mass of curls pic is priceless! When my younger gurlie got married a couple of years back, she insisted I go with the "group" to get my mop done up too.. First they straightened it then did that same mass of curls job Gingerhead got. Everyone was cracking up... but it did turn out purdy I have to say. Took a week to get all the hairspray out and I still on occasion find a stray bobby pin... The child is a vision in purple ~ ya done good mommers!

I lo...Your beautiful daughter looks just like you!<br /><br />I love how I think high school students look so much older than we ever did back in the day, but when I see old prom photos from back in our day (I promise to quit using that phrase now!) the boys look so much older than any high school student should!
