Rissy Roo's Fashion News

The bey-hive has been abuzz over the past few days over the surprise drop of Beyonce's brand new visual album "Lemonade." Beyoncé's sixth studio album is strikingly direct and is by far her most personal one yet. You'll find that infidelity is a major theme throughout many of the tracks, and her fans are rising up in support. Just as importantly, the themes of forgiveness and re-commitment can also be found throughout the album, making Bey the queen of statements that she's become.

So, in solidarity with Queen Bey's powerful message, we're sharing a great way to get one of her most powerful red carpet looks: the beautiful Givenchy gown that she wore to the Met Gala back in May 2015.

In support of @Beyonce✊?? Get her queen ? look with @KarishmaCreations style 16061! #beyonce #lemonade #beyhive #queenb #bey #ootd #redcarpet #redcarpetfashion #love #instadaily #picoftheday #potd #fashion #fashionista #style #like #follow #karishma #sheer #jeweled #prom #prom2016 #gown #rissyroos #lifesapartydressup

Every girl wants to feel like a princess on prom night, from the gown, to the date, to the transportation to the venue, to dancing the whole night away. Of course, with the popularity of promposals over the last few years, the days of feeling like a princess start as early as that special prom proposal. Whether funny, cute, or totally romantic, prom proposals are a special moment and bring a whole new level to the meaning of being a prom princess.

One of the latest promposals that we've stumbled upon takes a cue from the romantic side and is all-over heart melting. Creating a disney themed promposal in itself is always so fitting to make a gal feel like a princess, but this teen really took the disney theme to heart. He created a Beauty and the Beast promposal, and hit all of the major points. Check it out below!

"I've been looking for a Princess to take to the Ball"

The teen made his date, Allysen, feel like a disney princess by capturing that classic rose from Beauty and the Beast, complete with a "Will you be my guest?" note, a ring shaped like a princess crown, and a poster that says, "I've been looking for a princess to take to the ball." I mean, honestly... what more could be missing?! Probably only a complete prince outfit...  Continue reading →

Our Roo Girls are starting to attend their Prom 2016 dances, and while we're sad that Prom Season is almost over, we're loving seeing all of our Roo Girls in their prom dresses! Our latest in prom pics comes from Roo Girl Kate Lannon. Her mom, Terri, sent us the pictures recently, with a very special note. Check out what she said and the photos below!

"We loved the dress! We will be back again for homecoming and senior prom for sure! She looked amazing. Thanks, Rissy Roo's!"

-Teri Marcello Lannon, Kate's mom

That's Kate above with her date, Casey Crockett. How cute do they look together?! And Kate's dress couldn't have fit her more perfectly! We loved the couple's choice to go with neutral colors on the skirt of Kate's dress and on Casey's tie, letting the pretty sparkly beads on the top of Kate's dress and beautiful purple flowers stand out.

So, you have your prom dress, shoes, and accessories. All that's left is to decide on your hair and makeup. And, those decisions can be just as big as the dress decision! You'll want to choose a hair style that compliments your dress, and the makeup is all about what you're comfortable with. You can go to a makeup artist and get it done professionally, or do it all yourself. Since the professionals have you covered, today's post is all about creating that perfect prom makeup look yourself!

Youtuber Melissa Allen recently posted a drug store prom makeup tutorial, and we're loving her makeup picks. She called it a drugstore haul because all of the makeup that chose chose can be found at your local drug store, and she tried to keep all of her choices under $10. So, if you're looking for a last minute makeup look, or need a makeup look on a budget, Melissa's video is a great one to take pointers from. Check it out below!

It's no surprise that Ariana Grande took our award for best dressed at the 2016 MTV Movie Awards - she always looks stunning, from the stage, to starring on Scream Queens, to every red carpet she's ever walked on. But, her look for the 2016 MTV Movie Awards was just stunning. And, it's not only her gorgeous dress that below us away - she performed a stripped down version of "Dangerous Woman," and it was dangerously good!

In the solo performance, Ari showed of her incredible range, leaving the whole audience in awe over her voice, the beautiful silky pink strapless gown she wore, and that pretty white fur stole. The look was extra special, because, as MTV pointed out, Ariana seemed to be channeling Marylin Monroe's bright pink look from Gentlemen Prefer Blondes. Ariana may not have gone 100% Marylin when it came to her hair, but she did trade in her signature high pony tail for a low one.

Of course, one of the reasons that we loved Ariana's 2016 MTV Movie Awards look is because it couldn't be more prom perfect! See three of our favorite pink gowns to take a cue from Ari's look below.  Continue reading →

A couple of days ago, we showed you the totally on-trend pantsuits that some of the celebs wore on the 2016 iHeartRadio Music Awards red carpet. As we mentioned in that post, another major music awards ceremony was held on the same day as the iHeartRadio Music Awards: the Academy of Country Music Awards! Of course, the celebs on the ACM Awards red carpet were just as glammed up. While we loved all of the look, there always seems to be one celeb that stands out on the ACM Awards red carpet. Yup, you guessed it: Carrie Underwood.
