We’re starting a new series where we will put together a complete prom look for under $150, $250 and $300.  As special as prom 2009 is,  stressing out over money isn’t something you should have to worry about. It’s totally possible to look beautiful while staying within a set budget. We hope to make the task of finding affordable prom dresses,  prom shoes, and inexpensive prom accessories – a lot easier by giving you a ton of different options right here! So be sure to check back often – we will be adding new looks on a daily basis!

This is our Marilyn Monroe prom look . Inspired by the classic photo of the 50′s bombshell standing over the train gate…we found this PERFECT halter gown at UniqueVintage.com

 

 

At just $68.00 this dress is a steal! It’s available in sizes 2 up to size 14. If you don’t like the ivory color, it is also available in red, burgundy and a greenish-blue color according to their website. They are an online specialty retailer – so you’ll definitely be the only person wearing this gown!

When wearing any type of halter dress, you want to keep your jewelry to a minimum. In this case, all you’ll really need is a bracelet! To compliment the broach at the center of the bustline, we found this really cute crystal bracelet at PinkCherie.com . It’s on sale for $18.90, and at that affordable price, we’re sure it won’t last for long!

 

We have two shoe options that would really go well with the dress. You want to definitely stick with a strappy stiletto style shoe, and we found these over at Amazon.com
