Prom 2010 Event: Miss Ruby Sue Giveaway!!

I am so excited to be hosting a Prom 2010 Event! I'm graduating this year and I realized that so many readers might also be grading too! Although I am graduating from university it's totally different from a high school prom which seems to be more intense and elaborate, I wanted to have an event that offered some great ideas for such things as jewelry, make-up and even dresses! And yes the grand prize giveaway will be an actual grad dress!!!!

Our first featured sponsor is the very lovely Miss Ruby Sue! With spring coming the flowers are blooming everywhere which I totally love! This isn't just in gardens but in fashion as well! In fact H&M has this amazing Garden Collection coming out and it's just amazing! And a great way to incorporate flowers into your wardrobe is through accessories!

My Review

Lori was so kind in sending me two pieces from Miss Ruby Sue,Angel's Song and a beautiful hairband! The pieces arrived quickly and was in a large box and nicely wrapped so that they would not be crushed during shipping! I was very excited when I first opened the box and my excitement didn't end there, because when I took out the pieces I was in awe of the beauty of it.


Angel's Song is such a great piece that features whites pinks and sparkle is added by the different embellishments that are vintage findings. So that means that each necklace is unique and one of a kind! It also features a great tulle frill that adds a greater depth to the necklace. I love the pom pom detail that is used instead of having a chain because it is very unexpected but works really well with the design and style of the necklace.



You can tell that necklace is very well made, with the silk flowers being reinforced in the back by heavy felt. All the embellishments are very well secured so you don't have to worry about it falling off. I found that this necklace worked really well with many different outfits. I have worn it dressed up as well as going to school and each time I have worn it I have gotten a lot of great comments and feedback. I find that I really do stand out while wearing this necklace and it definitely gives me a great little bounce in my steps.



The other item is an amazing hairband with a great big bow and silk rose. I am a die hard fan of the fashion in Gossip Girl and I always drool at Blair's amazing hairbands! Well I know that this hairband would totally grace her very fashionable head because this brings major style! Again like with the necklace it provides a big statement and a lot of great comments. The hairband has been wrapped with a raw silk ribbon that really sets off the red of the bow. I really love the size of the bow because it is the perfect size.
