I was never one of those girls for whom prom was a dream - nor was it a huge deal. But boy, did I know those girls. For me, prom was a giant party and, let's face it, an excuse to get dressed up. I wore a retro style black and white polka dot dress. But I knew girls who went all out in mermaid style gowns. Thankfully, it seems the times have turned in my direction, as demonstrated in the styling of Forever21's most recent lookbook, which is all prom, all the time! The retailer has a large selection of sassy prom dresses and accessories to go with, all under $40. Check them out at Forever21.com.
