By Hannah Taylor

I'm sure you've heard in the news, on TV, and on the web everywhere that the economy is slow and no one has any money. How wonderful it is that you can find prom dresses under $100 for prom 2009 online!

Although there are so many important parts to having a good prom, such as your nails, hair, shoes, necklace, purse, flowers, and other accessories, you won't have to worry about blowing you whole budget on a dress since there are so many under $100 prom dresses out there. When you let your mom and dad know how you saved so much money on a dress, their eyes will bug out and they'll be proud and amazed.

Besides being a secure and discreet transaction, order your 2009 prom dress over the internet is easy. Many websites will ask for your measurements to ensure that your dress fits well when it arrives. When you order online, you'll be joining over 50,000 girls a month that choose to order their prom dresses this way.

In 2009, online prom dress shopping has become more sophisticated and easy at the same time. Websites like TJ Formal have now included easy-to-read menus that help estimate your dress size and allow you to enter in your measurements. You probably won't even have to have your dress altered, because it many cases it will arrive ready to wear!

Instead of feeling cheap or cheated, you can feel proud, accomplished, and beautiful with your new prom dress under $100. There are so many styles and colors to choose from this year that you will always find what you need. The styles available aren't rejects from other years, either - they are very similar to existing designer dresses, but for $200-$300 less!

That being said, there are plenty of helpful tips that will help you get the best dress for you. Tips for Buying Dream Prom Dresses under $100:

- Go to a local tailor or dress shop and get yourself measured! Getting your measurements is free and takes about 5 minutes. Make sure to keep your numbers on a card or in your phone for easy reference later when shopping online.

- Keep your measurements a secret if you're more comfortable that way, but BE HONEST with yourself. Who cares if you normally wear a size 8 but online your measurements say you're a size 10? The better your dress fits, the better you'll look, and that's all that matters. You may have a small butt or big boobs or the opposite. The right dress will accentuate your good stuff and hide the not-so-good stuff and make you beautiful and confident on prom night.

- Picking a dress that matches your personality is probably the most important aspect of truly looking your best. You don't want your friends or the other girls saying, "wow, she's usually so xxxx, and tonight she's dressed like yyyy". Be who you are, and make sure your dress reflects that. Shy girls shouldn't wear loud, bright, skimpy dresses - all they'll do is feel uncomfortable. Girls who are tall should wear one style, short ones another. Skinny gils don't look good if they're lost in a bunch of fabric, and heavier girls may not want to wear tight dresses that don't give them room to relax and feel good. You know what suits you and is best, now go for it!

- Think about your complexion and the makeup you normally wear, day to day. You know the colors that suit you best. Visiting a makeup consultant in the mall wouldn't hurt, either. When shopping online for a dress, keep in mind the colors that suit you well, not just the most eye-catching ones. Again, the more natural your dress makes you look and feel, the more you will radiate beauty and confidence at your prom.
