Love your Body Dress, LyBD

Accentuate your best feature.

 

Fit Flare Catherine Malandrino dress has a beautiful cut and nice details. This is a cotton voile pin tuck detailed dress. V-neck line is flattering and fitted waist. Flared skirt.

HALO Dress

Cutouts that do not show too much skin and accentuate a small waist. Classic knee length and front coverage. Make this sexy but not over the top.

Jersey Laundry Dress with side grommets.

Makes this on trend and office party appropriate.

LAUREN by Ralph Lauren

Jersey faux wrap looks nice on all chest sizes. Gathering allows you to have an extra cocktail or dessert. Great from office to dinner.

Catherine Malandrino Silk

 

Gathering of fabric is a great way to hide or emphasize an area..so look in the mirror or take a selfie to see if the dress has achieved the desired effect.

Asymmetrical gives great bust coverage. Just make sure you have the correct bustier or strapless. 

 

 

Basically, choose dresses that accentuate your best feature. Material with some give like jersey is always a good bet. If you choose a sturdier fabric make sure it fits correctly. 

Bust: v-neck(emphasis) or asymetrical(minimize)

Small Waist: ruched, cut outs or gathered

Hips: (minimize) with flare or a line fitted but not too tight(accentuate)

Well fitting undergarments make a difference.

Real style is never right or wrong. Its a matter of being yourself on purpose. -G. Bruce Boyer

1)Pick the minor color in the pattern and accent with that. In the example above, this Anthropologie, Moulinette Soeurs dress has a blue lining. Add a blue cardigan… voila.

2)Black boots any height shape or size work well. Classic as plaid itself.

Want to take it up a notch Doc Martens from England in red patent leather. Add a classic rock and roll look. Not your thing?

 

 

Leather ballet flats

Ballet flats to the rescue.

 

3) Denim jacket or denim button down shirt. A denim trucker jacket or blazer always complete the look. A denim shirt also works well and can be tied in a knot in the front.
