Amazing New App for Teenagers - Scrapm! #highschoolasithappens

Hey Everyone,

I have something really exciting to tell you about!
If you are a fan of social networking, but want to socialise with people more your own age, then Scrapm is the app for you!

Scrapm is a brand new app aimed at teenagers in high school and allows you to capture #highschoolasithappens. This is also Scrapm's mission & motto.

Scrapm allows you to post photos from your high school experience, such as selfies and photobombs, and even has traditional yearbook pages for photos of dances, sports, clubs, and school events as well as outside of school parties.

You can even search up slang words if you are unsure of what they mean!

If you are interested in fashion, Scrapm allows you to post OOTD (Outfit of the Day) photos and even photos of that amazing dress you created in textiles class!

If you are interested in music, then you can post anything that inspires you on your specific school's music page.

Scrapm allows you to document all of your high school experiences, and in a way is like an electronic yearbook. You can even take the survey on the Scrapm website and suggest that you want to print custom yearbooks from the app - I think that it is a great idea and if enough people agree to it, then it could happen!

Since students from different schools as well as your school use the app, you have a better chance of socialising with people who have similar interests to you. You are also able to find out about all the cool things that are going on at your school. Scrapm believes that other social networking sites do a great job of letting you keep up with your friends, and they want Scrapm to be about your school!

Scrapm allocates each school its own site, and the people at Scrapm work very hard to keep anyone who isn't a student out of the site so that your privacy is protected. 

You can set up your own profile where you post photos from your high school experience. On your profile, you can include your traits, clubs you are involved with, and which school you go to.

Scrapm is a great and innovative app that is perfect for teenagers!
There are so many amazing features available to use and you don't have to worry about your parents cramping your style because the app is specifically designed for students.
You NEED to check out Scrapm! It has potential to be the next big social network, up there with Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook.

Prom & Ponderings

♪ Tinie Tempah - It's OK ♪

The last of year of highschool is definitely one of contrasts. I have the most impressive amount of stuff to learn and it sort of equals the amount of parties I'll attend. This month alone there might be three, and of course then comes the well-known question: "What will I wear?". This year, I'm kind of going with the flow, while listening to Tinie Tempah's new masterpiece, "Demonstration" (nobody can't convince his first album was better than this) and being calmer than last year. Still, a big question comes into my mind dreadfully: "What kind of gown should I buy for my last prom?".

The prom in question will take place in May (2014 that is) so before you jump ahead and call me crazy let me tell you some of my mates already bought their dresses for the most important event in this highschool year. Naturally, I started searching for specialized sites and I've come across to 1dress.co.uk , the site from where I took the incredible photos you can see above. This online retail store has helped me with one major thing: I've decided the three major styles I like most in a prom dress. Firstly, we're talking long prom dresses. I've given this a lot of thought and I just can't see myself finishing highschool wearing a short dress, I want an ample, feminine gown! Now , on the styles:

Daring Cuts: They're all the rage right now, designer are racing to find more subtle and unique cuts. I love them, it's just that I don't think I have the courage or the atitude to wear one shoulder prom dresses. Only time will tell, I still have a long way to go until May.

Glamour: I think I want to see some sequins on my dress, but I'm not sure on the amount, I don't want to look kitch. Maybe just for the top, as in the second photo?

Red Prom Dresses: I've always dreaded red, I have only one thing red in my closet, which I bought forced by the fact all my class had to wear the same color one day and we opted for red. Still, ever since I turned 18 I find it more appealing, but I would have to be careful about the shade of red, I don't want to remind everyone of Christmas.

So, what do you think? Do you have any advice for me, considering the fact that you've been following my fashion journey so far? One thing I found awesome abut this site is the fact they offer a 10$ discount if you use this code: xq10usdoff . And, since on Instragram today it's the usual "Throwback Thursday", I want to share a photo of me wearing my favourite long dress back in June:

Prom night

Hi :)

Prom night was a few days ago, we finished all final exams today and my birthday was on June 1. ( I'm 19 now ). Here are some pictures from prom. My companion was my best friend.

These pictures are not taken for a post, but i want to share them with you.

I hope you like how I look.

Kisses till next post...

Fancy Friday: Finding the right dress

I've been planning to post this photo for three months now, shame on me! It's just that I like everything to be perfect and as I didn't take my camera with me at the last prom...well, that's the best shot I got with my phone.

I have to admit a thing that I absolutely love about highschool: proms & parties. We don't actually call it a prom, but a ball and we have two of these each year. I usually like to go wild and wear really different outfits on such special occasions (I was Audrey Hepburn inspired in a LBD once, Floral Fairy in a long dress, Cha Cha dancer in a blue dress and the list goes on and on..). At the last prom though, as you can see, I chose a dress which represents my style very much: classy and feminine. This happened due to the fact I was really busy at the time and I bought the dress one day before the prom and had like 15 minutes for hair&makeup, it was a complete madness!

This spring, when the second ball of this scholar year will take place, I want to plan things ahead , because although my look turned out fine, I don't know if I'm so lucky to pull this off again! I saw you guys were really receptive and helpful when I asked for your suggestions last time, so I'm going to to rely on you one more time: I need to pick next prom's dress.

Wait, there's some good news, I picked the brand already: House of Fraser. I've wanted to shop from this UK-based label ever since my pen pal from London showed me online the amazing things she used to get (we had this funny ritual at sales time, when we would skype and pick the best deals for her to buy). Right now, I feel like their unique prom dresses are essential for my next ball, you know me and my fashion fixations !

I'm still having issues picking between four of them, all fabulous, so perhaps you can help me figure out which one would suit me best (I'm also really curious on how you see me):

I told you, four dresses- so different yet so incredible! What should I do?
