That sounds awesome justhey! What do you want your dress to look like?
I actually started looking for dresses in late-December before I left home for the break... and our formal isn't until the second week in April!!!
I also might be going to my boyfriend's fraternity's formal, but we're not sure if we will be able to make the trip.
I really think this year I am going to try a strapless dress... I have never worn strapless for fear it might fall down or something

but I think it would be fun to try a new style.
I have this really weird tradition of getting my jewelry first and then finding the perfect dress. (Yes I know this is weird.. but I have been doing it since my sophomore year in high school for prom

)
I have already purchased my jewelry set and am awaiting for it's arrival... I would like to post a pic, but I don't know how
