Evening Dress - Choosing The Best For You

If you are going out in the evening, it is because you most probably have a date or you have a very important evening event to attend. These dresses today come in a wide range of styles and colors giving you a variety of options. With such a huge variety, you will find a dress that makes you pop. The major thing to look out for when looking for the perfect dress is your body type

When choosing your dress, it is also important to look past that one event. It can be a waste to choose a dress that you can only wear once. A good dress will give you a chance to wear it over and over again and still be comfortable, so choose the style and colors with care to make this possible. Below are style tips that can help you select the best and the right dress for you.

To hide the tummy, you can go for a dress with a little detail or ruching around the bust area and one that shows off your beautiful legs. This kind of a dress will take the attention off the area you are most conscious about. You can also throw on a belt around the tummy to disguise it and create a beautiful figure.

If your body is straight down and straight up, you are better placed wearing a short dress with a high neckline. You can also add a necklace that makes a statement and big earrings to add details on top.

There is a wide range of Evening dresses 2016 and when you know what body type you are, you will find it easier to make a selection. It will also be easier to get it right with the accessories.

Festival Clothing

The summer season in the UK is virtually non-existent, as you all know, what we normally get is a very low-level monsoon - constant, drizzly, rain. However, if you know how to dress for this weather, you can guarantee yourself a great time at any of our festivals, and make sure that you never miss your favourite acts.

Many people go along to these festivals purely for the atmosphere and the music, caring very little about their wardrobes, and you can take a leaf out of their books. Understated is always the way to go, stick to tried and tested clothing, such as cut off jeans or mini denim skirts, team with a funky graphic tees and you will look trendy without having to try too hard, or better yet, spend any money.

OK, so shorts and skirts are great if the sun is shining, but what do you do if it rains? Well, again, wellies are essential. So too is a mackintosh. Plenty of different styles of mackintosh are on sale now, and are perfect for festival-goer. The trick is to select a style that reflects current fashion trends, any with a funky graphic print, or floral print, or animal print, is ideal. These styles of Mackintosh are great because they go with casual clothing, such as jeans and a t-shirt, or combat trousers and knitted jumpers, so they never look out of place with contemporary fashions.


In terms of the style of Festival clothing you should choose, you can never go wrong with a modern bohemian look. If the weather permits, opt for a style of footwear with funky fringing effects, or a funky pair of gladiator sandals (but make sure you bring back up in the form of a pair of trusty wellies). Flat soles are better, because you will be on your feet a lot of the time: only bring heels if you are a hardened wearer, otherwise, you may just find that your choice of footwear ruins the experience.

Finding Your Wedding Day Dress

You must have been recently engaged if images of white dresses are occupying your thoughts. Many women have imagined their wedding day since they were born, but will the actual event live up to the long-standing dream?

While white may now be the 'traditional' bridal color, but that doesn't mean there aren't ways to individualize your wedding gown with pretty trims or even using an off-white or cream shade. This way you can demonstrate your fashion awareness, while staying true to the more common color.

Vibrant and outgoing people might consider a more "daring" wedding. You can reinforce this concept if you plan to do a wedding with a theme. Try swapping out the colors for something bolder. These might not be the usual colors, but they will give your wedding photo extra flair.

If you would like to have a themed wedding, you can look for dresses related to a specific time period or a certain culture. If you are leaning more towards attire that is inspired by the Renaissance period, you'll need to check costume shops which carry selections that can be transformed into wedding clothing.


In order to reduce the emphasis on height and maintain less length, a taller bride can seek wedding attire with more accents along the bottom portion of the dress. The most important thing is that the Day dresses are the best one for you and that you feel beautiful in it.

Purchasing the Right Special Occasion Dresses

Before you run out and start buying special dresses for holiday parties or upcoming weddings, it's important to know what to look for and how to buy the right dresses for your figure. There are a number of factors that determine which type of dress is right for the occasion. What season is it? What time is the event? Did the invitation state that it was black tie or semi-formal? How do most of the people you know normally dress for a similar event? Answering these questions first can help you choose the right style of dress. The next step is choosing a dress that flatters your body type.

Choosing Special Dresses Based on Body Type

Whether you're apple or pear shaped, large or small on top, or have wide or narrow shoulders, there are dresses meant specifically for your body type. While it's tempting to choose a dress just because you like it, if you purchase a dress that flatters your figure you'll look and feel great about your fashion choice.

Empire waist dresses are great for women with larger bottom halves. The free flowing look of the style is perfect for women who have smaller chests but feel that their legs and hips are too big. A halter style dress shows off toned arms and the décolletage, making it an ideal style for athletic types.

Seasonal Fashion Dresses:

When filling your closet with dresses, keep in mind that you need a dress for every season. You also need special dresses appropriate for day and night time events. Attending events in the spring and summer means you need dresses in light colors or soft prints.


Creating a wardrobe of special Occasion dresses is easy if you know which styles flatter your body type and follow the rules of seasonal fashion. 

Holiday Clothing - How to Take the Stress Out

When the holidays roll around, so does the stress of what to wear. During the holiday season there are a lot of parties, receptions and dinners. Sometimes formal wear is expected and it can be difficult to figure out whether you need several outfits, or just one to wear everywhere.

Look at What You Already Own There is no need to spend a huge fortune on holiday clothing. You can probably use some of the items that are already in your closet and add some festive accessories to make them look new. If you have a nice red or green blouse, for example, you might add a pair of earrings or festive necklace from the current season to make a classic blouse current. Pair this with a nice black skirt or pair of slacks to complete the look.

Holidays are A Great Time for the Classics The holidays are a great time for the classic little black dress. Do not be tempted by trendy holiday outfits, as you will not be able to wear them next season.
Choose Versatile Clothing When you are buying a new holiday outfit, avoid making it too holiday specific. A dress with an embroidered Santa can only be worn during Christmas, and chances are you will not want to wear it to every single party, so it would get very little use.


Test Drive Your Holiday clothing If you are going to go short or low be sure to give these outfits a test run before the big evening. Also if you have not worn an outfit since last year, try it on before the big night. Do not pop on an outfit for the first time before you run out the door to an important function.
