Default anyone wanna help me find a prom dress (for my daughter)...

My daughter and I were searching for prom dresses tonight. We found a whole bunch we really loved but they were all in the 300-500 dollar range (WAY TO MUCH!! 200 or less is more our price range) Her prom theme is fairytales and she wants something pretty and very formal (think cinderella-poofy styled long dresses). She loves the type with the corset in the back also. So if you have any sites or any dresses that fit add a link so I can check it out.

Thank you...I absolutely LOVE that dress!! She isnt really into pink but Im thinking she might like it too. It is still a few months off but we dont want to be scrambling at the last minute to try to find a dress for her plus she is really short so itll most likely have to be altered for her.

that is really pretty. It is kinda similar to what she wore to prom in the ninth grade (she went with a really good friend whose date cancelled at the last minute)

Found this one- I just love the coral color, but maybe she wouldn't. LOL Might find some other deals though, too!

she is open to other colors. Only color she said she really doesnt want is black because she has worn it to almost every formal dance she has been to so far.

Oh this will be fun I never got to go to prom, so I am going live vicariously!

This one is hot, neckline is a little plunging...

This one is so classy

And I *heart this one and it comes in petite, so maybe no altering!

Well, I might be biased, but I work for this formal wear site: TJFormal.com - my sister owns it. There are all kinds of price ranges. What size does she need?

Her homecoming from last year



and her homecoming from this year

Just a hint...bridesmaid dresses are WAY cheaper than prom dresses and come in so many different styles. The only reason more people don't buy them for prom is that you have to order them many weeks in advance and most people don't shop that soon. So you might keep that in mind. She could get virtually any color she wanted.

These are all so pretty. She went to bed awhile ago but I told her Id have some to look at tomorrow after school. I believe that prom is the middle of March here. So that gives us about four months still. Id like to have the dress picked out and paid for by the end of January though because she will still need accessories and pictures. This will be her first formal dance where her date is her boyfriend and not just a friend so shes pretty excited :-)
