The Maxi Dress

The maxi dress is the perfect outfit for many occasions and also a comfortable way to feel feminine and sexy. The great thing about this dress is the fact that it can be worn by women with various types of body shape because it gets tighter on your waist and makes you very feminine. This style was first introduced in the 40s and women also used this flare pattern for the lower body when they wore skirts. Here are some tips on how to wear the maxi-skirt depending on some of your body characteristics.

If you are petite or small framed and want to wear a maxi dress you need to make sure that it doesn’t look like it’s covering you completely. A V-neckline can do the trick here but so can choosing a sleeveless one. Also, don’t forget to add heels to look taller and slender.

When you are plus size, a maxi dress is the perfect pattern for your body because it hides the problematic areas while giving you a really elegant shape. Also, if you are going for prints, choose big prints instead of little ones, it will make you look slimmer. The V-neckline will also advantage your body because it gives such a beautiful shape. Make sure that you are wearing wider straps if your arms are thick and want to make them look a little smaller. Also, don’t forget the heels because they will elongate you giving the impression that you are taller and also look slimmer.

Accessories are always welcome and you can combine the maxi dress with all kinds of beautiful jewelry, even the most colorful that doesn’t go well with other clothes. Pair it up with flip flops and put a flower in your hair and you are ready to go to the beach.

White Jeans – A Trap Or A Classy Fashion Item?

Everybody has a pair of jeans, they are great and comfortable, but there’s a lot of controversy when it comes to white jeans because not all people like them. White jeans can be a blessing or a curse, depending on how you view them. Here are some of the biggest advantages of owning a pair of white jeans, but also some of the biggest disadvantages that come while wearing them.

Wearing white jeans might make you look trashy – but this can be easily avoided if you don’t wear high heels. Yes, you can definitely wear high heeled boots but avoid stilettos as they will make you look a bit cheap. Other types of shoes are also great such as flats or even sports shoes, so wear those instead.

White jeans can show a lot of your problems – it’s understood that you shouldn’t wear white jeans if you are overweight unless you choose a long shirt that will cover the parts that are problematic. On the other hand, even if you don’t have problems with your weight, you might find it useful to buy a pair of jeans that is a little smaller, hoping that the light color won’t make you look that fat. This is a big mistake because white jeans will show you your imperfections more if you try to squeeze into a smaller size.

White jeans are elegant – the great thing about them is the fact that they look more elegant than the classic blue jeans so you can wear them in most social encounters. Also, they are perfect for summer because the color doesn’t attract much light so if you like wearing jeans during the summer they are definitely the best option.

 You need to be careful with white jeans and white clothes in general because they can get dirty really fast, so this is why most people don’t wear them. Pay attention where you sit or what comes in contact with your jeans and you will be safe. Unfortunately, white jeans are great fashion items to wear, but they usually require a lot of work and people find it tiring to wear them every day, due to the constant checking so that they don’t get dirty.

Ray-Ban Sunglasses in Marshmallow Colors

Famous all over the world for the quality of their products as well as for the technical and aesthetic innovations they have constantly brought on the market, the American sunglasses manufacturer has recently issued a new line. Impregnated by the pastel colors of the season, Ray-Ban’s Erika sunglasses prove to be particularly compelling. There is nothing like a revived iconic accessory to give the right amount of twist to a classic outfit.

Between a Louis Vuitton collection dominated by the sweet marshmallow colors, a Givenchy collection showcasing baby pink tones and an haute couture show by Elie Saab where colors range from tangerine to aqua green, fashion trends are undoubtedly in favor of the pastel side. After an orgy of Post-it colors during the previous seasons, the fashion world has finally decided to abandon the bright flash of the “stabilo” trend in favor of the soft and sweet aura of faded orange tones, light purple and sky blue.

However, if almost all the ready-to-wear collections are now full of pieces honoring this new color-code, fashionistas should be careful not to turn too quickly all their wardrobe to milkshake tones because there is nothing like a  mismatched lagoon green or an awkwardly accessorized orange to end up with a bland look.

The slim gummy textured frames and tinted lenses of the oversized Ray-Ban’s Erika sunglasses will provide a classical outfit with a fresh and chic touch. However, they are not to be combined with a daffodil yellow perfecto, for which a timeless accessory is more recommended. Ideal for spawning discreetly with the sweet pastel shades of the season, Erika should have no trouble upgrading liberty silhouettes, to update the total denim looks, to bring a twist to medium length skirts and to make a little urban touch to the famous Paul Smith pajama style.

Date Outfit – The Little Red Dress

Forget about the little black dress, when it comes to a date and you really want to make a good impression, the little red dress is the correct option.  Studies show that people will always find a woman in red more attractive, so why not take advantage of that? However, wearing a red dress doesn’t necessarily mean that you will blow people’s minds. You need to learn how to wear that dress because most women just make wrong combinations when it comes to this outfit.

So what is the little red dress? It’s similar to the little black dress, there’s no pattern that needs to be followed, it can be tight or really flare, that’s up to you.

 You need to keep in mind that you have to wear the little red dress with high heels, otherwise it won’t have the effect you’re looking for. Don’t match the shoes with the dress, instead get some black stilettos and a small black clutch for a flawless look.

Also, you will need to accessorize it properly. Since it stands out on its own you won’t have to exaggerate so wearing simple jewelry is always a plus. Pearls and diamonds will look fabulous but if you don’t have any some other simple cut jewelry will do well.

Makeup should be carefully applied, if you put too much you might end up looking a bit trashy so make sure that you choose something neutral. Brown tones, green tones or grey are perfect as eye shadow and they won’t stand out too much. Red lipstick can be hot if you choose something that goes well with your skin tone and it’s not too much. A lip stain gloss would be better if you are planning to eat or smoke without constantly having to check your makeup.

With all these in mind you will probably have a great date and impress anyone you want but don’t forget about being confident all the time.
