So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

Short Purple Prom Dresses Are In Style

By Alyce Larson


Short purple prom dresses are a popular choice for girls on their special night. This color is very versatile with many different shades from the softer ones like lilac to the deeper, richer ones like aubergine. The idea of wearing shorter styles has become more popular in recent years. They are less cumbersome than the long gowns, easier to dance in and are still extremely stylish.

However, there is a danger of looking under dressed amidst all the formal gowns if the right accessories are not chosen. The makeup, hairstyle, jewellery and shoes must all compliment the style of dress. Make the right choices and a shorter dress can have just as much impact as a long one, be more comfortable when dancing and will usually be worn more than once.

Choice of neckline is usually made to compliment certain features. If you are petite you will look gorgeous in a sweetheart cut which shows off your curves, with the shortness of the skirt making you appear taller. If you have good shoulders you may choose to show them off with a strapless style or thin spaghetti straps. You may prefer to cover your shoulders or even wear one shoulder covered in a style which can be very elegant. There are lovely backless styles which draw attention to your back.

Taffeta is one of the more popular materials used for a shorter dress, especially with a tulle overlay. Layers of net like tulle give a fantasy feel to an outfit. A dress may consist of more than one fabric, such as the use of a lace overlay to create a vintage look. A metallic fabric may be chosen for a slinky, sexy, form fitting style.

Garments are embellished to take them out of the realm of the ordinary. A dress may be very simple but it looks unique due to the way it has been decorated with beads, pearls or embroidery. Lace overlays are popular for a vintage look. You will make a more dramatic statement with sequins, feathers or rhinestones.

With a shorter style, it is vital to choose the right pair of shoes. The obvious choice of color is to go for the same shade as your dress. Shoes are now decorated with all sorts of embellishments like glitter and bows which go perfectly with the more youthful, romantic styles. If your dress is elegant and mature looking, it is better to go for a classic style with a covered toe.

There are many stores offering the option of purchasing online. This does give the opportunity to compare styles and prices. However, great care has to be taken to select a reputable store if a purchase is going to be made in this way. A dress which does not fit properly or does not arrive in time can spoil the occasion completely.

Short purple prom dresses are in style. Wear one and you will be able to dance the night away without tripping over a cumbersome long skirt. There are such a variety of shades and designs available that you will find the perfect one for you.
