Homecoming Outfit - Casual, No Jeans

[elli]

I might be going to my schoo's homecoming dance next week, and the dress code is casual, no jeans. Does anyone have outfit suggestions?

 

[elli]

No one? I'm really desperate, I have no ideas

 

[jfhave]

a cute dress with tights??

 

[claireZk]

That's a toughie, because to me casual=jeans.

Maybe a casual dress or black pants with some sort of cute top?

oops....

 

[jc2239]

here are a few looks that i think are really cute. maybe you can draw some ideas from them









and if boots aren't your thing any of these would be cute with flats

 

[yesther]

wow! how casual are homecoming dances these days? mine were always semi formal--all the girls wore cocktail dresses.

Go vintage shopping! It's fun, though I am definitely beyond my homecoming days, vintage shopping never fails me when I want a quick find for an occasion. Just today I found a fab black Betsey Johnson corest dress with a chiffon-skirted bottom, it's really comfy and the corest is that jersey cotton material :} 20 bucks

Why not a vintage rock n roll t-shirt under a sharply cut blazer and skinny/wide legged trousers? Push up the sleeves a little to look cooler. Accessorize with gold/wood bracelets, a large cocktail ring and a metallic clutch. I think you'll be the coolest girl in the room. Don't forget the super high stilleto heels.

Make with smokey eyes, glossy lips, and sleek, wavy beach-y hair.

Thanks everyone for your ideas! I especially like this one, but I think I want to wear a dress...

replace t-shirt and trousers with an embellished tank to wear under the blazer and some sort of pencil skirt or not so flowy skirt?

or a snazzy tunic with dark opaque hose to eliminate the skirt issue, with a belt over the tunic or the belt over both the tunic and the blazer

or maybe my modification suggestion might not work

there are a bunch of recent pictures somewhere on the forum of korean (?) female celebs that wear a long black blazer over a short ruffly black skirt that peeks from under the hem of the blazer, with black sheer hose and heels, or something of the sort I think?
