Homecoming is a joyful celebration of university, college or high school spirit. It usually takes place in the United States, but this tradition starts to become popular in other parts of the world, too. Although not that formal as a prom, homecoming still requires attention and careful planning from those who will take part in it.
Generally, the homecoming party takes place after a football game. Besides football, other sports or cultural events can happen, and even fabulous parades that amaze locals and tourists alike. During the homecoming party, a Homecoming King and Queen are elected; during their speeches, they need to show their appreciation towards their football team.
Even though homecoming usually centers around football, this does not mean that you have to put on your sport suit or dress casually. If you want to win the title of Homecoming King or Queen, you need to dress appropriately to the event. And this means to look for elegant tuxedos, if you are a gentleman, and for lovely homecoming dresses, if you are a lady.
Homecoming dresses, prom dresses 2014, Quinceanera, Sweet 16 dresses, these and many others can be found at local boutiques or online. But before purchasing a certain dress, make sure to know the exact dress code. If it is your first homecoming or prom, and you do not know the tradition respected at your school, discuss this matter with your colleagues, and find out what theme your school will consider this year.
Going shopping with your friends is a good thing, because they can tell you if a certain dress fits you well or not, and also because they will not choose a dress similar to yours, since everyone wants to be unique and feature an outfit that no other person is wearing. Take almost any dress into account, not only full-length dresses or dresses that present sequins.
Once again, consider the theme selected by your school and respect the dress code. If you have a date, make sure to match your outfit to his; who knows, maybe you will be elected the Queen, and your date, the King. It would be great to see a lovely dance performed by two people that seem to connect very well with each other.
When shopping for homecoming or prom dresses 2014, take into account the latest fashion trends as well. Also, understand that makeup is an important feature of any fashionista, so try to contact a professional makeup artist to provide you with some extra glow. Makeup needs to reflect the colors of your outfit and match the formality level of the event.
And do not forget the accessories: purse, shoes, tights, gloves, scarve, hat, glasses, belt, and most importantly, jewelry. A simple jewelry set is the best option, if the dress is already enriched by ruffles, fringed edgings, beads, rhinestones, or crystals. On the other hand, a much more luxurious set is desired, if the dress is all black.
Finally, consider a jacket, shawl or coat that will keep you warm before coming to the party and after leaving it. Pair your dress with a comfortable sweater or blazer, to make sure you would not catch a cold. Not even the title of Homecoming Queen could protect you then.
