SENIOR:

Gabrielle Tremonti:

“This year I will do the same routine because it really worked out well last year!”

SOPHOMORE:

Alexandra Traviesa:

“I normally sleep in till around 10 the day of Homecoming. During the day I prefer to be comfortable so I  wear Nike Running shorts and a loose t shirt. All of my makeup and hair inspiration comes from Pinterest. I save what I like and show the stylist so they know exactly what I want. I am then never disappointed!”

-First thing I do is get my nails at Crystal Nails

-After nails, I have a quick smoothie from Extreme Juice in the car on my way to to get my makeup done

-I wear my hair done and usually get a blow out

Dress

-Last year i got my dress  at Neiman Marcus and believe it or not, I found it two nights before the dance

-I prefer flowy dresses over tight dresses because they are easier to move around in and to get in and out of the limo throughout the night

Homecoming is a very memorable event that all grades are able to attend. It is a night filled with amazing food, fun limo rides, and dancing with your friends! If you are unable to experience Homecoming, there are still many more dances to come. Christmas Formal is another event that you should go to at least once during high school. These are the memories that will stay with you forever!
