Would you wear your nighty to your prom? My daughter did, along with a pair of dance shoes she had laying around. Of course I had to buy her a wrap and some nylons. She wanted to go to a beauty salon to have her hair styled. We drove around and found an old-lady beauty parlor. The lady said "No Problem, I'll take care of you, no sense in planning ahead." She curled and teased and sprayed that hair until it stood out like a puffy halo, then she tamed it back into a beautiful and classic updo. We bought a couple of carnations to match her nighty and put them in her hair. I loaned her some nice jewelry and she was all set. She looked beautiful and felt great. She was ready to compete with the prom-girls of the past,present and future. Her date paid for the meal which was very good I hear. She had paid for both their tickets since she asked him (he is a Junior). Expenses were: tickets= $85.00, wrap and nylons= $75.00, hair=$20.00+tip, flowers=$2.00 pictures=$40.00. That is still a lot but not compared to what it could have been. I am proud of her for pulling off the nighty as a prom dress. She didn't even notice the scorch mark I put in it when trying to iron it.�
