Were you glued to your TV Sunday evening as I was looking for which celebrity was the best dressed, or better yet, worst dressed? There was so much excitement Sunday for not only what the stars were wearing, but also as to who was going to win.

Back to the what really is important for us: Where can I find that Emmy dress at a great price?

All shades of purple hit the red carpet Sunday night--which means you better get out your purples as it will a big color for Fall. (Purple was an especially lucky color for The Closer's Kyra Sedgwick who won her first Emmy while dressed in a gorgeous Monique Lhuillier.)

Itching to find a similar dress? A.B.S by Allen Schwartz never lets us down from duplicating red carpet dresses.

I found a beautiful one shoulder long purple dress that would be stand up to any red carpet dress. Bluefly.com is currently having a great sale and this dress is priced at $189.54 half of its original price.

On a budget, but still want that purple dress? The Apt 9 line sold at Kohl's has a cute purple party dress priced at $34.99 and currently on sale.

Is black the new black again? According to these lovely Emmy attendees, you'd better believe it is!

When did black ever go out of style?

This a great option for a black dress on a budget. Designed by LC Lauren Conrad and priced at $44.99, you can check it out at Kohls.com

The one shoulder dress really made a statement Sunday night with Emmy winner Jane Lynch looking especially fab as she took a break from the track suits sported by her Glee character:

There's no better way to draw attention to a well-shaped pair of shoulders by exposing just one while demurely covering the other.

To copy the style, seek out A.B.S by Allen Schwartz who does it again for the one shoulder black gown. Found at Bluefly.com and priced at $273.00, which includes a 40%, discount is a great buy.

A more playful rich purple dress by A.B.S by Allen Schwartz can be worn on a night out with friends. You can pick one up at 6pm.com for $115.

This is a great starter guide to finding that Emmy Dress you feel in love with Sunday night. When shopping for a dress this season, keep in mind that purples are in and black is back. Don't be afraid to thrown in some color, its never hurts. The one shoulder dress look? It may work; depending on the type of event you are attending. Remember to stay stylish!
