Cold weather accessories are perhaps the most gifted items this holiday season. I suggest to look for interesting trendy designs something unconventional like neck warmers instead of scarves or leg and arm warmers. Giving someone something that's unique than the usual will say something about you... cool and in-the-know.

Belles and Dresses

| | Comments (0)
I attended a few parties this summer and witnessed not once but at least three times on different occasions, one of the worst involuntary and unintentional fashion blunder women can fall prey to... someone wearing the exact dress you have on! With more and more women getting fashion savvier each day, the chances of seeing your dress' evil twin gracing the same social engagement you RSVP to are pretty high. Not to mention, the time and money invested to feel and look extra special loses some of it's value.

My advice to prevent such melancholic fashion faux pas? Know how to incorporate the season's trends to your style. Keyword is 'incorporate', a head to toe look with all of the season's trends makes you look like a walking trend list. Think vintage - an homage to vintage or vintage inspired fashions are always a hit when styled right. Shop for interesting and fresh silhouettes. And most importantly, remember it's you who make fashion happen not the other way around.

I came across these dresses from French Connection, I think they are so chic and elegant. Use them for inspirational references or buy one for your next soiree!

Some women prefer short dresses and others long ones.  There's a requirement for long dresses though, you have to be tall or tall enough that you can wear shoes that will give you the desired height to be able to wear and look fabulous in a long dress. This summer if you're planning to wear a long dress go with colorful patterns or muted colors and patterns. And as for shoes to go with the dress, stay away from flats unless they are thongs or sandals and for heeled shoes I recommend a minimum height of 3 inches, you don't want to look like your drowning in the dress.
