Not many of us are as lucky as Cinderella to have a Fairy God Mother, who transforms that ragged study hoodie into a beautiful ball gown. However, if you've always dreamt about your graduation ball, you would be well aware that there are a few critical elements that must be achieved before the big day.

This is our Graduation Checklist with shopping suggestions, raging trends and everything you may need to transform into a princess on your big day. 

#1. The Perfect Dress 

It's not a graduation celebration without the perfect dress and every girl dreams about the Cinderella ball gown on her graduation day. If you're looking to source a dress locally there are a few places you can check out for amazing formal dresses. 

First on our graduation radar is Ainsley Co Ltd located in Long Circular Mall. That gorgeous dress I'm wearing in the picture above came from there. Secondly, on our radar is Little Black Dress TT located at The Falls at Westmall.  

If you're looking for a dress online, there is only one place you need to look, New York Dress I swear by this website. There are over 100 designers from Jovani to Sherri Hill, which are actually brands sold at the local dress shops mentioned above. The prices and shipping period are extremely reasonable. The site has all new and current trends based on any event you will be attending. 

Just remember when you're buying a dress online, ensure you order will arrive with sufficient time in the event you need to have a local taylor or seamstress make any alterations. 

#2. The Perfect Shoes 

There is really only one place to shop for the perfect comfortable shoes for your big night and that's JustFab, when you become a VIP member you get 2 pairs of shoes any style of your choice for $39.95 USD. Isn't that a steal of a deal and bang for your buck???

You should definitely head over to JustFab and kick off summer with two awesome styles, one for graduation and one just because you made it this far. 

#3. Graduation Hair Style Trends 

There is only one hair trend that's on the rise at the moment. That's soft romantic curls, whether pinned up or draping the face, that will be the most worn hairstyle this graduation season. 

#4. Graduation Makeup Trends 

There are many graduation makeup trends, whether it be the full on glam glitter look, the golden bronzed look or a natural look. The key factor here is to find a look that compliments your dress and not compete with it.
