When his oldest daughter, Katie, turns 15, she feels it's time to start looking more grown-up after years of having an unflattering wardrobe that includes thick glasses and full set of braces.

She Is All Grown Up | |
| She's Out of Control / int_2cf282ea | comment |
She Is All Grown Up: Basically the whole premise of the movie; when dowdy Katie gets a makeover while her father is out of town, he returns to be shocked and horrified that Katie is now being chased by practically every teenaged boy. | |

Tomboy and Girly Girl: Bonnie is a tomboy, while Katie, despite her unflattering clothes, is still the more feminine one. | |

| She's Out of Control / int_6edc54d5 | comment |
Here We Go Again!: At the end of the film, Katie's younger sister Bonnie, who up until then was a straight tomboy (whereas Katie was simply Hollywood Homely), begins her own dating spree. | |

Boyfriend-Blocking Dad | |
| She's Out of Control / int_997ce6ad | comment |
Boyfriend-Blocking Dad: Doug is a textbook example of this. Roger Ebert condemned the film for dragging this into Squick levels. | |

Braces of Orthodontic Overkill | |
| She's Out of Control / int_e9396c59 | comment |
Braces of Orthodontic Overkill: Downplayed. Pre-makeover Katie had a full set of braces that, while not the usual humongous device that sticks out of people's mouths, are still portrayed as very unwieldy and awkward. | |
