Ok so my junior high school is givin the 8th graders a semi formal. I wasn't going to go but then my best guy friend asked me to go with him. I went and tried on dresses and I really loved a white dress with black poka dots. He likes it too. But I'm not exactly thin. I'm a plus size girl and I'm reading on some websites that white isn't really the best color to wear if ur trying to look a little thinner than u actually are. I'm not sure what to do.

Wear the dress you like! Don't believe everything you read in magazines or websites, it is all just advice. Sometimes the opinions you hear are valid, but that does not mean that they apply to every person and occasion. If you love the dress and your date likes it too, wear that one and feel confident in it!

How do you feel in it? If you feel great, you will carry the confidence with you and you will get many compliments. Don't worry about the dark colours clothing. Wear colours. Enjoy your night!!

Don't worry about what you've read online. As long as you feel comfortable, that's all that matters. Have fun at your semi!!
