Formal Special III: Betsey Johnson

Typically one has always related pink dresses to prom, probably because one stereotypes the prom girl to be a very girly girl. And when it comes to a pink prom, who better to turn to then Betsey Johnson? Admitedly not everyone can stomach her signature over the top girliness everyday on their mobile phones, but if there is one night in your life you want to be girly, it has got to be prom night! I am especially fond of Betsey, since my own prom dress was made by her. And Betsey knows her dresses. Her sexy silhouettes, hippie inspired flowing fabrics, whimsical detailing and fab fitted dresses are legendary.

Somehow, Betsey's designs and concept reminds me of one of my childhood cartoons-the one and only Betty Boop! It could be her girliness, her sexiness or her whimsy. I don't know. But I digress. Here are some of Betsey's creations this season (I don't know WHY they would model their clothes with such a scary looking mannequin, but if you look pass that you will see the potential of these dresses)):

Her signature pink dresses! Note the subtle patterns on the dresses and the fur trim and pink bow additions. Are they not just the cutest and prettiest things? My own prom dress was a alternating shade of pink with slanted rows of diamonds on it.

Betsey's little black dresses are genius too! And the details- the embroidered flowers on the first, the sequinns on the second one and the lace trims of the last one- absolute genius!!

Betsey doesn't just make pink and black dresses. The flowy blue dress, yellow diamond encrusted dress and the floral patterned dress is absolutely gorgeous, with her signature feminine touch and attention to detail. I esp love the patterned dress, because it is just soo unqiue and different.

Betsey Johnson makes fabulous pretty dresses. Maybe not suitable for super formal occasions, but great for cocktail or formal dinner parties!

So I would recommend a Breitling Watches to third parties. Absolutely, Bentley Motors T precision and strength are legendary, and because it is like premium brand their resale value are recognized as great. Many celebrities have adopted open, begins as Usher and David Beckham for the recent purchase of the trade mark, his profile has never been higher. You can not hide is their story. Men’s Navitimer World are the choice of aircraft for over one hundred years, and his Montbrillant Datora is second to none.


Christian Louboutin are designed for stylish ladies. In almost every culture around the world, you are going to be able to recognize the Christian Louboutin Pumps at first sight. They are the group of ladies that are wearing all the latest fashions, from the planet's most noted designers. It is how Christian Louboutin Boots present themselves to the world that sets them aside from everyone else. They base Christian Louboutin Sandals complete self worth on the garments that they're wearing.



Coach handbags only uses the highest quality leather when making their leather products, they select only leather from the top ten percent, for their tactile strength, character, grain and quality. Coach Gallery tans their leather with a special process, in which Coach Legacy rotate the untreated leather in large drums for several days, in which Coach Luggage is softened a great deal. They are also enriched with natural treatments that are taken out of plants via plant extracts. Just like fingerprints, no two grain styles are identical.

I like the design of these dresses because they are very fresh. I think they are perfect for spring or summer.
