Get a Retro Look for Prom

Retro chic is all the rage right now and if you're gearing up for prom, think about making vintage screen sirens your inspiration for the complete ensemble. Not sure how you can get the look? Let Promheadquarters.com help with these four tips to getting the perfect retro look, just in time for prom:

1. Pouty Red Lips – these are a staple for any vintage vixen. Get the look by choosing a matte red lipstick in a color that compliments your skin tone. Keep the look clean by using lip liner first. Or, if you want to get some extra plump for your pout, consider using a lip color that comes with a built-in plumper to get pillowy, beautiful lips.

2. Classic Pearls – there's nothing prettier than a set of pearls on prom night. Try finding a set that compliments your dress length and looks simple and pretty. Go with a bracelet and earring combo if you've got an interesting neckline on your dress, or if you have a strapless gown, wear a layers set in a choker style to get the look.

3. Big Curls – channel your inner Marilyn Monroe and style your hair in beautiful, big curls. Try using large curls all throughout your hair like your favorite pinup, or you can choose to add just a few in the front to get a rockabilly style ala Gwen Stefani.

4. Kitten Heels – very dainty and proper, this style of shoe is great for prom night. Wear them with tea-length or shorter prom dresses to get a very classic, retro look. Go for a style with lot of embellishments or a pointy toe to dress it up.
