We just want to start by saying that this is a very mature dress, between the plunging neckline and the totally bare back – it’s imperative that you make sure you are wearing the right undergarments, sticky tape to keep the dress in place, and don’t get too excited on the dance floor!

We went back to one of our favorite online prom stores for inspiration! Unique-Vintage.com has an amazing collection of gowns that are stylish, chic and inexpensive. So we’re starting with this piece:

This designer inspired piece by Faviana can be purchased in sizes 2-14. It’s a stretch jersey lame material – which translates to super slinky and super sexy!

Shoes:

We’re unable to see J.Lo’s feet – but we’ll just assume that her shoes are equally fab. With this dress we’re going to actually advice AGAINST a high or stiletto heel.  Our personal experience tells us that with this type of material – a heel that’s too high will cause snags. The dress is likely to get caught in the heel.  But we know some of you diva’s won’t leave the house unless the heel is at least 4inches! So we’ve got two options for you – both are very affordable and from Amazon.com

This is a very simple gold sandal with a roughly 3inch heel.  With all the drama in the dress, there really isn’t a need to go overboard with the shoe. You can grab this at Amazon.com (link below) for just $46.95

Now if you absolutely insist on a higher heel and more “jazz” – check out this one by Carlos Santana! The shoe is hot! It’s so hot that it may actually take away from the dress (in our opinion at least).  However, you can definitely wear it again, with the other shoe – you’ll likely toss it in your closet and not think twice about it. Either way, at just $42.99 it’s beyond affordable.

Once again, you don’t want to over-do the accessories here. Definitely don’t wear a necklace, a drop or chandelier style earring would be very flattering as well. We’ve found these sparklely gold bangle bracelets from www.PinkCherie.com for just $20

So lets recap:

Dress: $238.00 at Unique-Vintage.com

Shoes: $42.00 at Amazon.com

Bangle Bracelets: $20 at PinkCherie.com

Total: $300
