Pretty and Cheap — Proms Get a Budget-Friendly Makeover
Though Cinderella might have been the quintessential rags-to-riches story ending in a lavish ball, the current mean-stepmother economic reality has many prom-goers tightening their cummerbunds, and embracing a cheap and charming alternative.
It hasn't been uncommon for modern teens to spend anywhere between seven hundred and a thousand dollars on just the prom dress — a lavish spectacle egged on by shows like MTV's My Super Sweet Sixteen — but as more and more families are finding it harder just to pay rising fuel and food costs, the clock is striking midnight on luxuries like pricey prom-wear. To see how proms are getting an '08 budget makeover, read more
Teeny Prom Dress Earns Girl Accessories: Handcuffs. Fair?
Prom night in Houston brought out the corsages — and the controversy. One high school senior came decked out in a dress that school officials thought was less than suitable. Yellow criss-crosses of fabric made up the top portion of her custom-made frock.

Will You Go To Prom With Me?
Oh, the perils of high school dating...and thanks to YouTube, it's all become even more unsettling. This next video is some gal's narcissistic way of inviting someone to the prom. Call it a hunch, but I think a card would have sufficed, or maybe a few cheesy flowers...but the up close and personal visual of her screaming face, coupled with her granny back-up dancer, just didn't seem to do the trick.

I work at a pharmacy, so I usually just buy drugstore brands like Physicians Formula, Maybeline, and Revlon.

South Carolinian teen Candice Hardwick believes her freedom of speech was violated when school officials forced her to change her clothes and turn shirts inside out because they featured the Confederate emblem. Candice, whose state still flies the Confederate flag at the state house, was even suspended from her middle school for continuing to wear the controversial logo.

Prep Talk: Justifying Hazing at Boarding School
High school girls have many ways of punishing each other, the silent treatment being a classic tactic. But what about seniors marching through dorms with the precision of the gestapo, lining up freshmen, yelling at them, making them perform chores, and forcing them to count to 100 in German? It's not reform school — it's an annual ritual at Miss Porter’s, an all-girls boarding and day school in Connecticut where Gossip Girl-sounding names are as common as class rings.
