Don't cover those shoulders just yet ladies. This fall, one-shoulder and one-sleeve dresses are quite the trend. Chic, sexy yet elegant perfect for day or evening soirees. Here are some styling tips on one-shoulder and one-sleeve dresses:
- Material/Fabric - opt for stretch cotton, jersey or any comfortable fabrics for day and go with silks, fabrics with sheen for evening.
- Style - everyday wear should be casual save the ruffles, appliques, bows for evenings or special occasions. If you want to dress it up for day, simply accessorize with chic, tasteful, statement worthy jewelry. Clutches or any small-sized handbags are fabulous with this type of dresses.
- Shoes - knee-high boots and over the knee boots are great for day while ankle boots, pumps paired with tights or leggings works best for your evening looks.
So, how much should you spend on a dress that only has one-shoulder or one sleeve? Believe it or not while I was shopping around they cost more than dresses with sleeves. I say look at this trend as sort of 'investment' garments. A dress or two for special engagements, party dresses if I may. I think a dress under $200 is ideal any dress priced more than that is surely a splurge.
Shopping note: I came across become.com while online-shopping for this post. Become.com is a comparison-shopping site that made it easy for me to research this fabulous dresses. Do check it out!
