Get FREE Prom Dresses, Accessessories and Shoes from Princess Closet!
Are you a teen girl with big dreams of going to prom, but has a small budget? If so, Princess Closet is the answer to your dream!
With over 1,50o dresses plus shoes and accessories to choose from, you will be sure to find at least one dress you like. There are two little problems, though. Dresses sizes 14 and up are scarce and more shoes are needed. No worries. Maria Davalos, a proud mommy and the Founder of Princess Closet, is working on that. Also, be sure to enter one of their contests they have going on right now: the Curvy Girl Design Your Own Prom Dress Contest and the Ultimate Prom Package (details below). One more thing, be sure to spread the word to other girls with big dreams and small budgets.
To learn more about how the organization started and how it helps to make girls’ big prom dream come true, listen to my interview with Maria Davalos. Then, visit Princess Closet to find out how to get the dresses; to learn about upcoming events; and to find out how to contribute.
