- This is kind of like a marathon.
- Oh God, she's right there. - Why am I taking so long?
- See the confidence in my face?
It's not there. - Cries internally.
(upbeat music)
Hey, my name is Bianca.
And I'm the adult.
- Hey, my name's Mei.
And I'm the teen.
- And we're gonna be shopping
for each other's prom looks today.
- Fun. - I went
to my junior and my senior prom.
The first time I went, I wore,
like, this, like, backless situation.
It was sequined.
I had my hair up.
For my senior year, I wore this lime green dress.
And it had, like, my back was out.
- I kind of went to my junior prom.
I went to, like, half of it.
I decided I was gonna go, like,
two days before.
And then I wore one of my sister's old dresses.
It was just, like, not a fun time.
And I did not go to my senior prom.
I need to just relive that.
(laughs)
Get to have a really cute dress
that I actually really love.
- If you were gonna have your ideal prom dress,
like, what would that be?
- I think something more simple.
I'm not into, like, the poofy thing.
Not my thing.
I like, like, simple things.
Maybe, like, something, like, long with,
like, a slit in the leg kind of vibe.
- I think I would go for, like,
a pant suit these days.
Or maybe even trying, like, the poofy thing.
I like reds and corals.
I feel like those look really good
on my skin tone, and I also like anything
that just sparkles or shines.
- 90% of what I wear is black I feel like,
so I think that would definitely be my go-to.
- If you were gonna be wild, what color would that be?
- Probably, like, a red?
Okay, I'm willing to try anything.
- Okay. - No guarantee
that I will like it, but I am down
to try anything. - Should be fun.
- Yeah.
- But I'm also, like, teens.
I feel like y'all are so cool these days.
I hope I, like, get it right.
(upbeat music)
So we're here at Macy's, and we're getting ready
to shop for looks for each other.
- But first we need to go over the rules.
- [Bianca] We'll need to get an outfit,
an accessory, and a shoe.
- [Mei] We'll have 15 minutes to shop
for the outfit.
- [Bianca] Five minutes to shop for the shoe
and the accessories.
- [Mei] And we can't spend more than $350.
- Well, are you ready to go shopping?
- Yeah, let's go. - All right,
let's do it!
- Okay.
- Red and black, and she's a teen.
- Okay, this seems like not her vibe.
- She has great legs.
I feel like this could be a vibe.
- I feel like this could look good on her.
Like, the off-the-shoulder thing.
- Ooh!
This is pretty.
I don't know how simple that is though.
- Hey, back off. - Okay, okay!
I don't see, I don't see anything.
I don't see you.
- I think this is really pretty
but also nothing like what she explained
so probably not. - Ooh!
Now this, I feel like is a vibe.
I think that she would like a lot.
- This is definitely sparkly.
- This is kind of like a marathon.
- I think I am gonna grab this one
because this has a little bit of sparkle
and is also red, which is one of the colors
that she mentioned.
- So I know she said she's simple,
but isn't this beautiful?
I feel like this might be more for me,
but we're gonna think about it.
- This one is also really cute.
- Oh, wait!
I'm not even keeping up with my,
how much am I spending?
Oh, my God.
- This is something that, like,
I would wear.
But I don't know if she would.
- I think I found one.
Oh, wait.
She can see me.
I can see her!
- Okay, all right.
I know which one I want.
(whimsical music)
- She does not like open-toed shoes,
so now I have to find something closed-toed.
- I'm thinking I want, like, a black shoe.
- Everything's open-toe.
Okay, I'm gonna have to veto her on this.
- Not for what I'm looking for but so fun.
- I think I'm leaning this way on this.
- I want these with this.
Not an option.
- I don't have all day to be making this choice.
- All right, we're gonna get the accessory first
then we're gonna decide.
- These are kind of cool.
Right?
So she doesn't like open-toed shoes.
Kind of like a good middle ground.
- I wanna get earrings, and I'm thinking,
like, hoops 'cause, like, you can't go wrong
with a good hoop I say as I don't have earrings.
(low squealing)
- Screams internally. - Silver!
Found them. - Ooh.
No, that doesn't work.
- These are pretty big.
Okay, whatever.
These are the ones.
Let's go.
- This is pretty.
I think this is a vibe. - Yeah,
in the spirit of prom, we're gonna go with these.
- I feel good.
I'm done.
Yay!
We got our dresses. - I feel really good.
I really hope you like it, but I think you will.
I'm pretty confident.
How about you? - I feel con--,
well, okay, time out.
I'm trying to make sure that you're youthful
and that, you know, that you feel good.
So I feel like I really leaned into that.
I think I did an okay job. - All right,
so are you ready to go try yours on?
See if you like it?
- Yes.
I'm excited. - Me too.
All right, let's go.
Come on! - All right.
- All right, are you ready to come out?
- [Bianca] Yes, I am.
- Oh my gosh, I'm so excited.
Stop.
You look amazing. - Thank you!
- Oh, my God, that's so cute. - I'm feeling like
- Wow. - a modern day,
like, Dorothy Dandridge. - It's so good!
- I just need, like, a little flower
to go here.
I would not have chosen this for myself.
I feel like I've never worn a red dress
that I can think of.
- It's a statement for sure, - Yeah!
- but you look so good. - I have my leg out.
- Since I didn't give you, like,
the sparkle in the dress, - Yeah!
- I thought the shoe was a really good addition.
- The shoe is like-- - Yeah, I know.
Your legs look amazing. - I like
that this is simple.
Again, it's another accessory I can just add
to my everyday look. - Yeah.
- This is, like, me all day.
It's, like, simple but, like, makes a statement.
I think Mei did an excellent job.
(laughs) - Thank you!
- A perfect job. - I'm really excited
to see mine now. - You did such a good job
on mine I'm like, it would suck
if you were like, girl, I hate this dress.
Are you ready for me to see you?
- Well, I love the color. - Yeah?
- So good, what do you think?
- I think it's really cute.
Again, like you said, it's not something
that I would pick for myself 'cause I usually don't go
for, like, a high neck. - Okay.
- But especially with this choker.
I think it looks so cute,
and it fits me really, really well.
- I do wanna know what you think
about the shoes. - When I first saw them,
honestly, I was like, I don't know.
- Okay. - But I put them on,
and, honestly, with the whole thing,
I think it's really cute.
- What do you think about your necklace?
- I love it!
I think that's maybe my favorite part of it.
It looks so cute. - I kind
of went back and forth about whether
or not to just give you something new
to try, but I really did wanna honor
what you said that you wanted.
- Yeah, no, I think this was definitely a better choice.
And, also, I forgot to mention the back is so cute.
Like, the open-- - Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah!
- Back and everything. - And that's another reason
I like this for you because I thought,
okay, the back is open.
- Yeah, I liked everything.
Thank you so much!
- So I have one, final little note for you.
Macy's is gonna gift you your choker,
your dress, and your shoes. - No way!
Seriously? - Yeah, seriously.
- That's so awesome! - So you get
to take it all home with you and rock it,
you know. - Oh, my God.
That's so awesome.
Thank you so much!
- You're so welcome.
- Honestly-- - No, seriously!
- What if you hate it?
Okay, great. - Yeah, thank God I love
all of it!
That's so cool!
- I'm, like, proud of both of us
for killing this challenge. - Yeah,
and I have, like,
newfound confidence right now wearing this.
So I feel great. - That makes me feel so good!
I feel like that's what it's all about.
Confidence.
Like, wearing what makes you feel good.
- Yeah, for sure.
