First things first, on account of the fact that my school prom was a whole five years ago, this was not my actual prom dress. However, with prom season in full force I thought I’d show you how I’d pick a prom dress that I could wear again, and how I’d wear that dress again.
I chose a short dress on the basis that they are easier to wear in an everyday fashion; this pale pink and white lace number from H&M’s prom collection is a classic shape with which you can’t really go wrong. For a prom I think it would look very sweet with some heels in silver or a similar pale pink, but for everyday I chose to wear it with a sleeveless faux leather jacket for a bit of ~edge~ and those cool lace up chunky sandals you saw in this post.
Thoughts? How would you wear your prom dress again? Keep your eye out for a post on what I wore to my end of year university ball!

Mine was long, very formal and very heavy. I probably won't have anywhere to wear it again! I love this dress but I wouldn't wear it as a prom dress 🙂

I bloody love this! The whole black jacket with a sweet pink swishy dress thing is so cute. I would wear my prom dress (well playsuit) again but I returned it because I'm a cheapskate haha but it was so wearable and I could have worn it to all sorts of things! You look gorgeous as per 🙂

That dress is so pretty! I love the idea behind this. My dress was a long black dress that isn't as casual as this one, so that would be a bit harder to wear again out on the streets haha.
I wish I'd picked dresses I could have worn again. My prom dresses are long, long gone!

Oh my sweet lord you rocked the hell out of that dress missy! xo
This is such a great look, I love how you've restyled the dress. Wish I could wear my prom and grad ball dresses again, but they are both full length formal dresses, should have thought about that when I got them! x
