The poor unfortunate teenagers are sure that they only have one chance to get it right. The great thing is that the prom isn't the only chance to look good. There are plenty more chances in life for a girl to shine.

Today's batch of "teenagers" is a mixed bag of blemished faces and unfortunate fashions, along with some splendid and beautiful examples.

I love your Razzmatazz. I remember it from last year. I noted it in my book as one to own!
