Oh don't! Have quite a way to go, both are only 9! It's the costs of the prom that scares me! A lady at work has just paid £550 for her DD dress, no way!

Woah, £550 on a prom dress��
My DD had her prom the other week, she goes to an all girls grammar school with quite a few affluent families in attendance and as a student with a disabled husband I was worried about affording it so I did a booty with some of my stash and gave her a budget of £100 for the whole outfit. She came in under budget and this is the fabulous dress she got,

I even used my student discount. Proms on a budget can be done even if you have 2 DDs to kit out.
A lot of the dresses the girls wore were similar in style. She teamed up with 3 friends and got the parent with the nicest car to take them Definately not me)!
So don't worry to much if you can't afford the price of a second hand car for 1 party!
Oh and she got some French manicure nails from primary for £1, they looked fab, really professional, she did get her hair curled and plaited at a hairdressers though as I'm not great with her hair as its soooo long.

I had prom a week last Friday. And yes I paid through the nose for it you can't not however savvy you are.
Yes it's ridiculous! but it's how things are and you won't see your kid doing without. We got so angsty at one point I threatetend to throw the dress in the bin

Her demands were outrageous! be prepared to pay for tans, nails, temporary tattoos :eek: it's good for a moan though :D see you in 8 years :rotfl:

Yes I remember when DD had her prom how much it cost me. And wedding in 7 weeks and dress was not cheap. But she is making economies where she can ( 2nd satin shoes from Depop and drop earrings from Ebay). Having a tasting of the wedding food at my sisters and men going for suit fittings today.
FC you are a wonderful mother and do everything you can for your children. I salute you
