Prom Spot - Celeb Style: Steal These Looks for Prom

Want to look like your favorite celeb, but can't afford the designer gown? No problem! We've got four dresses that will make you look like you've just stepped on the red carpet. Inspired by the 2007 Golden Globes, you'll feel like a million bucks -- without the million-dollar price tag.

1. The Sophisticate: Eva Longoria

The Look: Check out how Eva's surprising swaths of color turn a lovely dress absolutely stunning. You'll definitely dig the details that are key to this season's elegant prom picks. Embellished bodices get dazzle from beads, charms, cut-outs, and elaborate straps, while the skirts are just as dramatic -- look for fishtail skirts, high-low hemlines, trumpet skirts, and trains.

The Steal: This jewel tone dress by Beyond by Jovani has similar shimmering embellished strips.

2. The Free Spirit: Reese Witherspoon

The Look: One of the hottest prom trends right now is to wear a short dress, like independent Reese did recently. Whether it's a classic strapless cocktail dress or a slinky mini with a bubble skirt, this hot length lets you wear the dress and not vice versa. Since there's less fabric, you can also choose a bolder print or color than you might otherwise feel comfy in -- like the star's textured dandelion sheath.

The Steal: This Jessica McClintock party dress echoes Reese's textured gold gown with a playful sash.

3. The Romantic: Cameron Diaz

The Look: One of the sweetest looks out there is also a new Hollywood favorite: layers of sheer tiers, like the dress Cameron wore to the Golden Globes. Taffeta, tulle, netting, and silks are completely girlie, whether they fall in soft pale short tiers or bold swatches of contrasting colors.

The Steal: This Tiffany Designs gown features the pretty, tufted piles of tulle, with a more structured corset top to play up curves.

4. The Head-turner: Katherine Heigl

The Look: Katherine's bold dress is undeniably red carpet worthy. You'll love this year's crop of jaw-dropping dresses that feature ornate full skirts gone high-fashion with exaggerated ruffles, gathers, pleats, tucks, tiers, drapes, or ruching. These confections are perfect for showing off your upper body, since they practically require an arresting neckline'think sweethearts, deeeeep V-necks, and corsets.

The Steal: The pleats and off-center seams of this Night Moves dress give you even more curves, while the trumpet skirt gives old-school glamour.
