‘Promalicious’ Expo makes dreams come true !

Promalicious, the area’s first and largest Prom Expo for PA, NJ, and DE, is holding its inaugural event with an aim to enhance the prom experience for thousands of high-school students, while also working to allow a few others to simply have one.
The event will take place at the Ramada Philadelphia Airport in Essington from noon to 4p.m. on Sunday March 25.
Promalicious, a free Expo for students, will combine the hottest trends in music, fashion and entertainment for the upcoming prom season with multiple charitable causes and fundraising foundations.
For students all over the country, prom is a rite of passage. However, for the children of St. Christopher's Hospital, attending a school dance might not be an option this year.
Promalicious hopes to change that by granting the patients their wish for a night they can remember by allowing them to experience the same memorable event that their classmates will be enjoying. Proceeds from the Expo will be used to hold a sponsored prom for the children of St. Christopher’s Hospital, allowing them the chance to attend a dance they can call all their own.
While those in attendance search for their own perfect dress or tux during the two scheduled runway shows featuring a live DJ and food and drink, Fairy Godmother’s, Inc. is challenging high schools to donate used dresses, tuxes and suits that can be re-worn by less fortunate students at their own proms. The school that donates the most clothing, making the proms of others more memorable, will do the same for itself as a celebrity will make an appearance at the winning school’s prom.
High Schools should register their school for this challenge by emailing challenge@jessicascottllc.com
Promalicious founder, David Smith will represent and spread the ideals of The Melanoma International Foundation, asking attendees to sign a pledge to stay out of the tanning beds and the sun in favor of Airbrush (spray) tans, a process proven to be much safer for users.
Additional sponsors include David’s Bridal, Philadelphia Wax Museum, Unique Limousine Concepts, Venus Beauty Academy, and Blast DJ’s.

What's your signature piece?

Start the New Year with a signature piece. Your signature piece! Yes we all like to look like we stepped off the runway, well maybe. You always have to tame those looks a bit. This 2012 think of celebrating you. Make your own statement about fashion just like Princess Catherine, Jennifer Aniston, Jennifer Lopez or Lady Gaga to name a few.  Please don’t wear meat though you don’t want the animal activists to spray you with red paint.

When you think of Princess Catherine the image that comes to mind is elegance. When you think of Jennifer Lopez you think flowing curves. Jennifer Aniston is put together with a causal air that’s very metropolitan. When you think Lady Gaga, you think, let’s say outrageous but definitely a style that is individually hers breaking all the rules. So what makes your style you?

Do you love to wear pins? Bold, Art Deco, or Victorian,  that pin on your coat says something about who you are and what you love.

 

Are you a scarf person? No outfit is complete until you drape that silk, cashmere or cotton scarf around your neck whether you are wearing a dress or jeans.

 

Maybe it’s the belt accenting those curves. Big and bold or chain links wrapped around your waist or hips saying look I’m a girl. Look at me.

What about dangling earrings? Those long diamonds hanging frame your face or do you choose small diamonds that you always wear along with those dangling earrings?

Maybe it’s a fragrance that you will wear no matter what. You walk in a room, leave and people know you were there. They inhale deep trying to catch a whiff of you as you run off to your next affair.

Fashion is all about you so make it work in 2012.

Decide on your signature piece and let the world

know who you are.  Keep Styling in  Delco!  Happy New Year!!!

 

Shine this Holiday Season

Shine on this Holiday Season



It’s all about the sequins, the lace,  the feathers , the faux fur.

 Tis the season to shine. Glitter is the rage be it on your nails, your ears, your shoes or your belt

 

. Wake up the night and shine this holiday season . If buying a new dress isn't in the budget you can glam it up with sequined feather earrings or great colored nail polish with a shimmer.  Top off those jeans or jeggings with a sparkly belt and add some great shoes and a faux fur vest. Accessories can always save the day and glam up that old dreary outfit.  You got it girl. The holidays are yours!



But what about those Christmas parties. Sometimes getting dressed feels fabulous. A little black lace dress with a vintage feel takes the day. You  never can go wrong with the black dress. 

 Sequined strapless dress by Sherri Hill  is a definite show stopper as is this peek-a-boo sequin dress. Add some great shoes and a clutch. You are ready to claim the night.  Keep Styling in

Delco!
