Homecoming often comes around to many mixed emotions: a sign of relief that you will be re-united with your friends, and anxiousness about the idea that school year is starting once again and you will have to do homework. Perhaps all of these emotions come together when you finally arrive at school, ready for homecoming events. Homecoming should not be a stressful season. It should be a time to you celebrate having a good time with yourself or the close friends that you have enjoyed school with thus far.
What better way to get excited about homecoming season than finding the perfect homecoming dress which can reflect your individuality? A homecoming dress can say many things. You can be the center of attention by wearing bright colors, reflect your natural state by getting colors that bring out your natural beauty, or you can be rebellious by wearing a long dress with many added accessories. Are you funky? If so, what about a vintage dress? Do you want to give off the classy look or do you want to look more professional? All of these factors you can consider while selecting the perfect homecoming dress.
When selecting your homecoming dress, perhaps the most important question to ask yourself is: what represents you?
Remember, your clothes are not you, but rather they are an extension of how you feel and represent yourself. If you are progressive minded, homecoming is the season for reinvention of self. Either you could repeat last year by pulling that old dress out of the closet, or you could really take the risk to be yourself by trying something new, and thus reinventing yourself. Finding the perfect dress can be the easiest way to make sure you enjoy the season and accomplish this. There is nothing worse than being insecure and being uncomfortable by wearing a style that does not represent you.
While it is true that your interior speaks volumes about your exterior, the vice versa is true as well: your exterior will speak volumes about your interior. How you carry yourself, dress yourself, and even keep your personal hygiene will clue people in to who you are, and how you think of yourself. The perfect homecoming dress will be able to that will speak volumes about the summer you just had, the person you were last school year, and the person you are becoming this year.
We are absolutely in love with this piece from Show Me Your Mumu. The Hana Trumu Watercolor Flowers mumu is super versatile and will turn heads like you wouldn’t believe. Dress it up with a pair of wedges for a night out for some margaritas or throw on some sandals for a boat party.
This flamingo mumu is to die for! This is a perfect mumu that can easily be worn over a swimsuit or styled with with turquoise jewelry to really make it pop!
Mumus don’t always have to be dresses. You can get the same feel of a mumu with just a top. We love this Moon Tunic Muami Sunset piece from Show Me Your Mumu. It still has that loose, flowy effect but can be worn with a pair of denim cut offs, maxi skirt, or just bikini bottoms!
This is another great mumu top from Show Me Your Mumu. We love the floral pattern for summer that is both bohemian and chic. Pair this top with a flower crown and boots and you’re ready for a music festival!
Looking radiant in red! This Moon Tunic Lobster Chiffon piece from Show Me Your Mumu adds that pop of color you need to stand out in a crowd. This top looks so flowy and comfortable you could sleep in it, or wear it to your next luau!
