Hi there!
This weekend I attended a Sweet 16 that I thought I was prepared for....but wasn't! I love to make lists and visualize my outfits so that I feel like everything will go smoothly. Unfortunately at this party I learned my lesson:
1. My wedges were BRAND new and I had never walked in them before. This is soooo unlike me but I just had no time! Once I got to the party I was fine and everything, but then after dancing my feet started to kill! I almost never take my shoes off but I had reached my breaking point and learned:
Always always always bring a pair of comfortable roll up or lightweight flats! You will thank yourself when you start to feel you're getting blisters ugh!
2. When I tried my dress on at the store I loved it and it fit perfectly...but once i started dancing and wore my strapless undergarment, (which I was not wearing at the store) I realized I had to pull it up every two seconds. I wish i had brought some pins or double sided tape so I could have taken my sweater. At least I learned:
Try on your outfit EXACTLY how you will wear it. You don't need to then predict how you will feel at the party and of course you want to feel comfortable!
3. Dancing calls for sweat. EW. As soon as the whole floor was covered with people, I felt a workout and perspiration coming with it! I learned:
Bring a small toilette and extra deodorant that way you can wash your forehead and reapply deodorant so you can feel nice, fresh, and self confident!
Well, here is my ideal party emergency kit:
-safety pins
-double sided tape
-water bottle
-little snack
-toilette
-deodorant
-hair ties
-extra pair of shoes
-cardigan
Hope this helps!
xo, Paulina
