Rissy Roo's Fashion News

Disney actress Bella Thorne recently shared photos with Seventeen Magazine of her all dressed up for prom with her friends! Bella wore a Sherri Hill dress to her 15th birthday party back in November, so you can only guess that she wore none other than Sherri Hill to her prom! The dress she chose was Sherri Hill style 21168, a beautiful jeweled high-low dress with spaghetti straps.

We already made the dress Bella wore our Dress of the Week back in February because we loved how beautiful it looked on Kendall Jenner, but we're giving it another honorary Dress of the Week for this week! Continue reading →

Even though Neon has been super popular lately, the color's opposite family member, pastels, have been all the rage, too! If you haven't joined the trend by way of mint green yet, don't worry, there's plenty of other pretty pastel colors you can wear, too!

With how long the bold neon colors have been in style for, the new trend of soft pastels is definitely a refreshing switch. The delicate palette is without a doubt a perfect way to usher Spring in, and will have you thinking of delicious cotton candy and summer fun that's soon to come! So, we especially love the color to wear at Prom - rather than having all eyes on your brightly colored dress, keep all eyes on you with a more feminine, subtle look. Below are some of our favorite dresses to wear candy-colored pastel hues for prom.

Sherri Hill style style 3875 is all about pastel! This stunning chiffon high low dress with beautiful jeweled detail and strapless sweetheart bust comes in five soft colors that are all so perfect for Spring: peach, aqua, green, pink, and yellow. Continue reading →

Prom Night is hitting the TV Screen everywhere! Last week, we talked about the beautiful gowns worn on the Prom episode of The Vampire Diaries. And today, we're all about the stunning dresses worn on the special Dancing with the Stars Prom Night episode (episode 1603)! The episode aired earlier this month, but we wanted to make sure to give a re-cap because there was one La Femme dress that was front and center!

All the girls and dresses looked beautiful, but our eyes were on Kellie Pickler the entire episode; not just because her and partner Derek Hough were stealing the show with their dance moves, but because Kellie looked absolutely adorable in La Femme style 18902 in light gold! It was no surprise that her and Derek received the highest score of the night with their fabulous dance number. Judge Len even declared Kellie, "The Queen of the Prom" after their performance to "Footloose!" It must have been Kellie's gold dress dazzling the judges! Check out some of the images from the show below:

La Femme style 18902 also comes in aqua, lavender, light pink, and white. Perfect if you are looking for a short white prom dress! Due to the dancing aspect, the show did add thin straps to the cocktail dress.

The gold number Kellie wore in the Prom episode wasn't the only La Femme dress Kellie has rocked on the show, either! You can check her out in the beginning of the show wearing La Femme style 16368. It's a short ruched net strapless dress with a jewel incrusted front that's perfect for After Prom, Graduation, or any other cocktail party event that you may have.

We've been dishing out tip after tip on how to make sure you have the perfect prom. From dress trends, to celebrity style, to hairstyles, to nail looks...but the night doesn't end with prom, of course! There's after prom, too, and it's just as important to make sure you find the perfect outfit to wear for your post prom events.

When prom ends and the after parties begin, it's time to throw on an outfit that's more fun, flirty, and comfortable, but still has you sparkling all night long! Wearing cute cocktail dresses have been a popular trend the past couple of years, which we absolutely love...why let the glam stop at prom?? Just make sure that the dress doesn't compete with your prom dress - your prom dress should be your big outfit of the night. Below are our favorite frocks that will have you looking glamorous from prom to after-prom.

Jovani style 74005 is so fun and funky, and so perfect for spring and summer with its cutout features and open back. It definitely has that extra party-girl edge!

 Hannah S style 27796 is an elastic bandage dress that is sure to be a comfortable choice, while still being figure flattering. We love the bright blue color (it also comes in a bright pink) - it's a perfect way to channel the spirit of spring in a chic way!

Just looking for something simple, but stylish to wear? Rocking a little black dress is always a staple choice. We love La Femme style 18110 because it's made of a stretch net mesh fabric that is sure to be a comfortable choice. The dress also comes in blue, red, and nude, so if you'd like to wear a bold color on a more simple dress, that's always a fun choice, too!

Whatever you decide to wear to After Prom, just make sure that you have lots of fun!

Back in February, we posted some cute photos of girls from one of our local high schools, Holy Spirit, all dressed up in our Rissy Roo's dresses for their Prom 2013 Fashion Show. Well, the girls recently sent us such a sweet "Thank You" note and included a bunch of photos from the event. The note was so nice and all the photos of the girls were beautiful, so we wanted to share them with you!

We were of course so happy to hear that the girls had a great time and were successful in raising money for their scholarship and tuition aid programs! Great job, girls!

Check our some of the photos of the girls dressed up for their event below:

Tara was one of our past Roo Girls of the week, and she looks oh so happy wearing Mori Lee style 9199 at her Holy Spirit High School Fashion Show!

All the girls getting their dance on, on stage! It looks like they had a lot of fun at their fashion show!

Even though Emerald Green is the Pantone Color of the Year, its pastel sister Mint has been taking over the fashion world! Mint has been so popular everywhere, from the high-fashion runways to every day street style. And, you can bet that it's the most popular color for Prom 2013!

Whether you wear the color as a long, short, or high-low look, the pretty pastel hue will have you looking on-trend all night long at prom. Below are our favorite styles to rock the color for your biggest night of the year!

Precious Formals style P8819 is one of our most popular dresses this season, and for good reason. Not only does it come in a beautiful mint color, but the one shoulder and cutout back detailing make it so on-trend and unique! Continue reading →

For those The Vampire Diaries fans out there, this past Thursday's episode was so intense, and fun! Episode 19 of Season 4, called "Pictures of You," was all about the very thing we know all of our Roo Girls are getting ready for right now: Prom! We loved seeing Caroline (Candice Accola), Bonnie (Kat Graham), and Elena (Nina Dobrev) looking beautiful in their prom gowns. And, Damon (Ian Somerhalder) and Stefan (Paul Wesley) of course looked as hot as ever in their suits (we may have been drooling over them...)! Continue reading →

Last week, we posted an article about perfect neon dresses for prom. With the warmer weather here, a lot of us girls here at Rissy Roo's have been rocking neon nails this week - we just can't get neon off of our minds! So, with all the different nail ideas we've been sharing with each other this week, we wanted to share some of our favorites with you.

Neon nails are especially perfect for those who love the neon trend, but are hesitant to wear it on bigger clothing pieces, such as your prom dress, shirt, or pants. Painting your nails a bright color lets you have some fun with the look without feeling like it's taking over your outfit.

When it comes to wearing neon nails to prom, just make sure that your dress is a neutral color. If you wear neon nails with a neon dress, you'll start to look like a highlighter. For wearing neon nails every day, don't be afraid to try something fun and funky. Remember, neon is meant to stand out, and if you don't like it one week, you can always change it the next. Below are some of our favorite neon nail looks that we found on Pinterest. They offer great inspiration for every day looks, as well as perfect ideas to wear at special occasions, like prom! So, check out some of our favorite ways to wear neon nails below and get painting!

You can never go wrong with choosing one single bold, bright nail polish color to wear! To let your nails do the talkin' we especially love neon green (like shown above), neon orange, and neon yellow.

Pairing neon and nude together is such a great way to tone down how bright neon can be, while still rocking the look. We especially love the style above because of how the neon was used as an accent to make a triangular shape. Geometric shapes are so in right now, so this is a beyond trendy look to rock on your nails! This is a perfect idea to take to your nail salon and have them paint on for you for prom. Having the accenting color piece match your dress color will really complete your look!

We just thought this look was too cute! We love the sparkly metallic paired with neon - they work so perfectly together! And, who doesn't love polka dots??
