Lovely, isn’t it? And the details are to die for.

This Jovani prom dress features a bodice with a sweetheart neckline that is fully encrusted in gorgeous rhinestones and AB stones. The middle of the dress has bead clusters that continue around the bottom of the torso. The tulle skirt flows out into an A-line shape. Add some fabulous earrings and a cocktail ring to this dress and be ready to go to Winter Formal, your Engagement Party, or Prom 2012!!!

There is always one of them on your list: the girl who has everything. A cute purse – she’s got it. A fun scarf and gloves – she’s got it. All the latest techie gadgets – she’s got it.

Well, there’s one gift I bet she doesn’t have.  And that perfect gift is a microdermabrasion at home kit, which you can conveniently purchase online from retailers like ShopNBC.

With the cold weather and crisp winds, your face really takes a beating and deserves some relaxation and rejuvenation. By doing microdermabrasion at home, you remove the superficial layers of dead skin, stimulate blood flow, and increase circulation of the skin.  This all helps your skin appear more radiant and youthful looking, and who doesn’t want that?

If $100 is a little out of your gift giving budget, try a microdermabrasion treatment like DermAppeal by Skinn.

This resurfacing and revitalizing treatment uses a naturally occurring mineral from the Dead Sea along with papaya and pineapple extracts, all of which give you the benefits of a microdermabrasion treatment at the convenience of your own home.

Either of these gifts from ShopNBC would be a wonderful option for that girl who has everything. She’s going to love her rejuvenated face!

Prom may be a few months away, but it is never too early to start looking at colors, cuts, and other trends. One of my favorite 2012 prom dress trends is a touch of sparkle.  Instead of allover glitz, look for beaded necklines, sequin finishings, and applique details. Showing a bit of restraint in your dress leaves room for glitter heels, statement necklaces, and other fabulous accessories.

David’s Bridal is about to release their 2012 prom dress collection, which is filled with gorgeous prom dresses and a hint of sparkle. You can see how this trend works with any type of dress, including maxis, A-lines, prints, and more.
