Heavy Metal Homecoming

Augh! It’s almost here – HOMECOMING 2007! Yay! This is such a fun time of year. Parades, dances, games, dances, bonfires…dances. Do you have your dress yet? No? Well get crackin’, girl!

Sure, jewel tones were a huge trend at the Emmys (and I loved them – especially the red), but I am all over metallics for Homecoming. There’s something about them. So rich. So alluring. So fun and hip. So elegant. IMO, metallics are perfect for Homecoming, regardless of the level of formality your school’s dance has. Below, I’ll show you several gorgeous dresses, all from Macy’s, that rock metallics out. But, if your school’s dance is a little more cazh, Macy’s also has some fun metallic tunics and flowy shirts that you can pair with sleek black pants or even jeans. Mmm…shiny.

Aren’t these great? And they won’t break the budget (tell your ‘rents to stick the extra money in your holiday gifts fund!) But, don’t forget the shoes:

There, now you are sparkly and goh-jus – and sure to light up his (and everyone else around you’s) night.
