Are You Ready for the Prom? Getting it Right on Prom Night.

Fort Washington, MD, April 25, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Prom dress, check – shoes, check – hair appointment, check – but, what about earrings, bracelets, and maybe a necklace?

Attending the prom is possibly the most exciting event for any teenage girl, besides her wedding day. One would think that the dress is the most important part of the outfit, right? Even though the gown is critical, the accessories really complete the look and are equally important, according to Fort Washington-area lia sophia Advisor Sherrell Martin.

"It is, actually quite amazing, what a difference accessories can make to one's overall look. Whether it is jewelry or that special purse - accessories definitely add that 'pizzazz' we all look for when dressing up, especially at such a formal event like the prom," Martin said. "As prom season arrives, we want to show teenagers in the Fort Washington community how they can make their appearance perfect for prom night!"

A New York Times article recently sited a survey from Your Prom magazine, which found that the average student spends an estimated $638 on the prom, a $4 billion industry. In addition, 74 percent of girls end up spending a good portion of their money on beauty products like artificial nails and lip gloss during prom season. As the special event becomes a more popular event, students will probably spend even more than that, Martin said, adding that accessories will become increasingly important.

"Whether it is a little bit of sparkle and shine, or a bold color to bring out the tone in the dress a girl wears, jewelry is essential because it makes you have that ultimate edge over others," Martin said. "Wearing a necklace can really enhance your neckline and a bracelet can bring attention to your freshly manicured nails. Even the right earrings can be the right touch with your hairstyle – you just can't lose!"
