Help Me Pick Out a Homecoming Dress!
So homecoming's next next week and I haven't gone dress shopping yet.
During previous years I'd go dress shopping the last minute, literally, but i've learned my lesson. I couldn't find anything. Now, the problem is, I have no idea where to look. I don't really enjoy dances, so I don't want to spend a lot of money on a dress. (around $40 max).

These are the dresses I was looking at: This is from Forever21 and i like this one. (above).

This is from Papaya. Overall i think it's pretty...but only if it weren't strapless..and a bit longer :[

This is from Charlotte Russe. I know it's not really a homecoming dress, but whatever! I want it!!!

I just threw this in here cuz i wanted to know....who in the world would actually wear this? o_0

I suck at picking out dresses haha. I don't even really know what kind of dresses you're supposed to wear to a homecoming dance (..even though i should since i've been going to one every year xD). That's why some advice would be great.
Where would YOU go shopping for a homecoming dress?

I usually go to Deb. Or sometimes I borrow a friend's dress so I don't have to buy another one.

I like the 2nd one a lot, but since it's not QUITE what you want, I have to go with the Charlotte Russe one.

I also like the first one.

The last one would be worn by Ariel, the Little Mermaid.

I don't understand. If you don't really enjoy the dances.. why go?

The second one is pretty. =]

I got my homecoming dress from Kohl's last year. It wasn't really a "homecoming" dress though, but I didn't care.

Personally, I would go for the cheapest, and splurge for prom. That's what I did.

I've never been to a homecoming dance but I really like the first too dresses. Also, I don't if you have a Mandee store where you are but they always seem to have a good selection of dresses at good prices.
