The 2006 Belle of the Ball took place on April 29, 2006 at Simmons College in Boston. With the aid of enthusiastic personal shoppers, many girls were able to find the perfect dress for their special night.

Each girl spent time receiving personal tips on the hottest prom looks from makeup consultants from Giacomo & Rondi Salon, Mary Kay and Avon Cosmetics.

Throughout the day, there were many prizes raffled. Prizes included gift certificates to department stores, local hair and nail salons as well makeup and beauty products.

With individual attention at the end of the day, each girl left feeling like the Belle of the Ball.
