Popular this season is the dress over turtle neck look, monochromatic themes and velvet.  Today we are showing S in a velvet dress, with velvet shoes and turtleneck under her dress.  This is a great way to take your sleeveless dresses into the winter months.  Chose dresses with deep “V” neck, wide shoulders, and heavier fabric. We loved the idea of monochromatic so we choses shoes and a turtle neck that were in the same color palette as the velvet dress!

Happy Monday! ~ xoxo Em

So my sincerest apologies for not getting this post up on Monday. I have no excuses, I simply let it slide!

If you wanted to implement the window pane print, and weren’t quite sure how, well here is a cost effective way to add a popular style to your wardrobe! We previously showed you the window pane print in a wrap dress, check out our archives for that look. Here we paired the window pane print with the car wash pleat and a great pair of go to black booties! In this style, S is ready for the office, or she can throw off the jacket and pair it with a silky shirt for a night out on the town!

OOTD: Jacket & Beret

Sadly it’s getting cold! And who says you can’t wear white after labor day! We think white screams winter, so we paired white pants, with white pumps, and a white beret! It’s cold, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t look great! To bump up the wow factor, we added a faux fur purse. The fuzzy purse is in this season, it’s something you can pick up cheap, and adds a lot of sass to your winter wardrobe!

If you have been following fashion trends at all in 2015 you know that shapeless, roomy, and baggie are in. And one of those trends that we love is the cape! So here is S in a startling red cape, something that picks up the fall colors, can transcend into December and make the leap through January and February. We love the idea of the cape!

What do you think of the cape trends?

Body Conscious: How To Avoid Looking Heavier in Your Wardrobe

20 Thursday Aug 2015

Posted by Em ♥ S in Fashion, Life

Tags

2015 fashion, belted dresses, belted waist, boyfriend jeans, chunky shoes, dark was jeans, dark wash, diagonal stripes, heels, high heels, hourglass figure, how to look skinnier, shapeless dress

Let’s face it.  Everyone is a little conscious of how their body looks.  So for those of you who are worried about that extra 10lbs you feel you put on this summer while indulging in sweet treats and ice cream, here are a few tips to transition into fall and help you feel better in your wardrobe!

Avoid the chunky shoe: 

I’m sorry to say it ladies, the chunky shoe might be popular right now, but if you are at all worried about feeling chunky – avoid the chunky shoe. Making your ankles and feet appear bigger then they are, does nothing for slimming your legs and giving you an air of elegance. Chunky shoes make you look heavier, they make you walk heavier, and they don’t make you feel sexy. So even though it’s trendy, skip them this season.

4th of July OutiftStylishTwoPostADayInMay-2051

Stay away from shapeless dresses

So the trends this year are a little “sloppy”. The shirt dress, and shapeless shift dress are popular, but if you’re conscious of those extra pounds, then wearing a shapeless shirt or dress just adds weight to your frame. If you’re really into the style, grab a belt and cinch it under your bust, or at the waist to draw the eyes to the narrowest part of your body and give you that great hourglass shape. As we move into fall and the weather starts to get cooler, a great button down sweater with a belt at the waist will add style and not add pounds.

Belted Dress

Hold off on purchasing or wearing clothing that is too tight

I know it’s exciting to tell yourself you’re down a size. It makes all of us think twice about buying a piece of clothing that’s just a little too tight. Unfortunately, the “feel good” part of getting into a smaller size doesn’t translate to how it looks on you. Clothing that is too tight hangs funny and attracts the eyes to the areas where it squeezes your flesh. Don’t get trapped in the “size matters” mindset. It really doesn’t! A great piece that fits right and looks fantastic on you goes so much farther then the size label. The only one who can see the size label is you. With the wide swing in sizing of women’s clothing, just forget about the number altogether and get something that fits. Our bodies are so different, don’t be afraid to go up a size in something great, and have it tailored to fit! You’re tailor is a great investment in you feeling great about yourself! When you go out smiling, and you know you look good, everyone else will think you look great too!

Buy your boyfriend jeans in a darker wash

So boyfriend jeans are in this year, and in their nature, they are a little baggier. To avoid feeling heavy in your jeans, go with a darker wash. Darker washes are slimming. So there’s no need to throw this trend aside, just make sure when you’re out shopping, that you remember color makes a world of difference.

Jeans-7423

Go for the oversized bag

As an Architect, I fully understand this concept. We use the idea of scale to trick our minds into thinking and feeling a certain way. People love to walk down city streets with overhangs and large shop windows. Why? Because it’s related to our “human” scale – as opposed to those streets with the towering high-rises that make you feel like an ant. The same thing applies to your accessories, and most importantly, your bags! If you’re feeling a little overweight, carry a large bag. Large bags will make you look smaller. Small bags make you look heavy.  Or if you’re a tiny slip of a girl, consider a medium to small bag so you don’t get lost in your oversized bag and oversized sunglasses – looking like you went to play dress up in you’re mom’s closet. Scale matters! So go big and go bold if you’re feeling a little self conscious!

The shirt dress, a popular trend this spring! Pair it with an unexpected belt, floral bag, and a pop of color with your wedges.

Wear diagonal stripes

So I think we have all heard the fashion advice – not to wear horizontal stripes. But if you want to look thinner – wear diagonal stripes.  We love this dress from Ann Taylor that directs the eye to the thinest part of your body and makes you look like you have the craziest skinny hourglass. It’s classy, its vibrant, and it makes you look so much thinner! So go for the diagonal stripes this year!

I hope these tips were just a little bit helpful!

It’s finally summer here in Maine! So let’s talk a little bit about the Dos and Don’ts of summer dresses! Because, let’s be frank, there is nothing sexier then a great summer dress, and it’s finally time to wear them!

DO: Look for bold prints and patterns! Floral is in this year, but summer time is a great time of year to add a pop of color, a touch of whimsey, or a bold floral. There is something about summer that makes our inner child come out! So go for it

DO: Recycle your dress! As you see below, there can be many ways to wear a dress! So get creative with your shoe, jacket, and accessory collection and make that dress look hot several different ways! (For more ways to wear the little white dress check out our blog post HERE

DONT: Forget to select the right dress length for your body type! Sarah has long legs, so midi skirts look great on her! Em has a longer torso and shorter legs, so just above the knee dresses or long floor length empire waist dresses add length to her shorter legs.

The wrap dress! Go for Navy - Studies have shown it's a power color and customers are more likely to buy what you're selling when you wear blue!

DO: Add a structured blazer or sweater over your summer dress to wear to work! The professional world calls for a little class and keeping your arms covered. So make that little summer dress professional with a sweater or blazer, and then ditch it when the work day is out!

DONT: Forget to add bold accessories! Make that simple summer dress pop with a statement necklace, a silk scarf with a bold print, or a pair of fantastic heels!OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERAIMG_4497

How to Wear a White Dress

DO: Go for a structured style dress like the shirt dress! Summer is a time to show off our bodies a little and a structured dress gives us a little extra nip/tuck after one too many ice cream cones!

The shirt dress, a popular trend this spring! Pair it with an unexpected belt, floral bag, and a pop of color with your wedges.

DO: Look for dresses that can go from day to night!  A simple change in sweater and shoes takes that dress from daytime festival to night time cocktail hour or date night with your special someone!
