Natural Pageants do's and don'ts

So it drives me nuts when I see basic mistakes in natural pageants,

Don't wear a dress that is too short, shows your ankles, or is a cocktail dress for formal wear.
Do wear one that nicely touches/brushes the floor.
Don't wear a dress that you can trip on.
Don't wear heels that you can't walk in.
Do learn how to walk smoothly and gracefully in heels.
Do practice walking in your clothing, outfits.
Do wear age appropriate clothing
Don't dress too old.
Don't act overly sexy, pageants are glamorous not slutty.
Don't put your hand on your hips when modeling gown.
