A few weeks ago I displayed my rockin’ bangs, brows and braces for all the world to see. In my post, I casually asked if anyone was interested in doing a photo link-up to show off their high school hotness, too. I was completely overwhelmed by the confidence and awesomeness of my blog friends because more than 50 people said they’d love to do it.
I gathered email addresses, sent out an email and plans were made. I’m excited to announce that the first official I Was a Senior Hottie photo link-up kicks on Wednesday, May 25th!
What: Link up a post with one or more photos of yourself taken some time during your senior year. It could be from Homecoming, Prom, Graduation, a senior trip, your official senior portrait session or any other time during that year.
Please note: It doesn’t matter what year you actually graduated as long as you are impressing us with your senior style!
When: The Linky opens on Wednesday, May 25th and stays open through the end of Memorial Day (May 30th). Those who link up on Wednesday can maximize their efforts by also linking up with Wordless Wednesday. This also makes for an easy post over the holiday weekend.
Why: Because you are #ALLCAPSAWESOME and can look back and laugh at yourself! May is the time for proms and graduation. Wouldn’t it be fun to take a trip down memory lane?
How: I’ll host a linky for the posts. You can come here, link up and grab a super glamorous #SeniorHottie button for your post and blog.
Speaking of buttons… which image do you guys prefer?
A.

If this is the first you’re hearing about #SeniorHottie, we’d love for you to join us!
I’m in! And…B!
I’m SO in. I’m going to look for the shot with the purple feather boa (which got me a few unsolicited phone calls when it was posted in the Freshman book at Auburn I might add). Hubba hubba.
I also had a promise of wearing a bathing suit from another blogger and holding a flute from another.
I think these photos may turn out to be quite epic.
But no one in a bathing suit, holding a flute AND wearing a feather boa? That sucks! What about riding in a wheelbarrow? Anyone committed to that one yet?
I’m in!
YAYAYAY! Can’t wait to see your ultimate hotness next week!
I’m IN!! and I like either A or B… it’s a tough call, they’re both SOOOO HOT!
Ohmygod count me in! And my vote is for A. Awesomeness.
B for me
I’ll link-up on the 25th!

[...] It’s that time of year again, when the familiar notes of Pomp and Circumstance transport us all to graduations of yesteryear. Memories of study halls and finals, senior ditch days (or you know weeks and what not), pranks, prom and parties all flash before our eyes and we become nostalgic, wistful, or in the case of some people, mildly masochistic.

OMG, how fun!! I hope I can dig up some old (AWFUL) photos of myself from 1991.
Great idea!
