Naughty and Nice: 4 Black and White Prom Dresses

Have a I really not written a single post about black and white dresses? This trend sailed across the runways last fall, so it's no surprise that black and white formal gowns are popping up everywhere. The new focus is just what I need to change my image of black and white. Reflecting my Disney-imbued childhood, you say black and white: I say, "Cruella DeVil."

You may not match black and white with romantic, but thissweetheart neckline and the full floor length tulle skirt create a modern day belle of the ball vibe.

Another ruched dress, that's true, but the swoosh of white across focuses on your shoulders, a great smile and fantastic earrings!
