Tailor Tuesday Tip!

DO NOT HIDE

There is a misconception that bigger women should wear voluminous clothes to cover up. Emphasize your curves instead. Opt for tailored pieces that define your midsection and flatter your bust.

Tips for legs

If you love to show them off go for a short full skirt, which will automatically send people’s eyes right to your legs.

If you don’t want to show them off, dark, full skirts or trousers in a solid color help camouflage your legs.

If you have short legs, a high waist skirt can make your legs appear longer and slimmer. The key is to create one continuous line.

Fab on a Budget

If you have a limited budget, spend it on accessories- cool shoes, interesting jewelry! All these can elevate your look. A wardrobe with a little extra lets you be more relaxed about the rest of your outfits.

Fashion= It just feels good!

“There is so much nonsense about fashion. People buy clothes because they want to feel and look good, not for any deep psychological needs.” Lagerfeld

To me fashion is a way that anyone can express themselves, whether it's something fab yet simple or a very out there point of view. Find out what makes you unique and express it in your own personal fashion style.

Polka Dot Mod, sexy, stylish and still very lady-like cute.

TAILOR TUESDAY!

“Tailored silhouettes empower the femme fatale in every woman-everyone needs a little help accentuating her assets!” Zac Posen 

Make friends with a good tailor-nothing raises the quality of moderately priced clothes more than having them altered to suit your shape. Build a relationship with a tailor who knows your body and your taste and you will never look back.

In Style Report Fall 2011

The Classic Pencil Skirt

This lean silhouette should be body skimming but not too tight and that can take you from 9-5 and beyond.

To keep it from looking too conservative, lose the work jacket and roll up your sleeves. Amp up the cool factor with poppy-red lips and chunky shoes. For night time do not be afraid to wear a ruffle top that shows a little skin.

TAILOR TUESDAY!

Customize your curves ladies

On the February edition of InStyle Magazine, Mad Men costume designer Janie Bryant says that a tailor can be the miracle worker when it comes to turning up the heat in your clothes.  A few alterations can "accentuate the bust, waist, and hips," giving you a day to night dress that's "not so much about showing skin as it is about highlighting your shape." Plus add a belt (thin or wide) adds even more definition.
