How to Make Your Legs Look Longer

07 Thursday Jul 2016

Okay, who doesn’t want that legs-for-miles, look?  Especially when summer comes around, and we care less about keeping ourselves covered and warm!  Here are some fashion tips to help give the illusion of legs that just wont quit!

  • Nude pumps – Choose a pump that is close to your skin tone, and it will just become an extension of your leg.
  • Something High Waisted – Those low riders can easily make it look like your waist starts inches lower than it actually does!  Choose something high waisted and pair it with a crop top or a tucked in shirt to gain you the illusion of some added inches.
  • A Pointed Tow – Flats or Heels, a pointed toe makes your legs appear longer any day.
  • Shorts and Mini Skirts – Especially in a darker color, and especially with a heel, can make you look like you have legs that could conquer the world.  BUT….have the confidence to carry them off.  If a short hemline isn’t your thing, the fact you are uncomfortable in it will hide the fact your legs look epic.
  • Avoid too many straps or ties on your shoes – Yep, its trendy to have straps and ties that go up your leg.  By all means, wear to your hearts content! On the days you want your legs to look longer, opt for a more simple shoe that will let the line of your leg continue down.
  • Try a Wide Leg and Heels — The lack of structure around your legs, paired with a leg that also flows over the top of your shoes makes it anyone’s guess where your foot stops and your show starts.

DIY: Pom Pom Sandals

Okay, so maybe I am the only one with an eccentric enough sense of style to love the pom pom sandals that have been cropping up.  The are happy, fun, and look so fresh for the season.  The problem?  No way am I going to spend $100+ on them.  My solution?  A DIY project of course!

What you need

Lace up Sandals (I got mine on Amazon for less than $15)
Hot Glue Gun (with glue)
Pom PomsOptional: Pom pom ribbon and scissors

**Warning** I know this may come as a shock to some, but hot glue is…hot!  Take care not to burn yourself, which like likely eventually happen anyway.  I like hi-temp because it gives me longer to work, but if you have sensitive skin, get yourself a low temp clue gun.

1) put on your sandals to get a rough idea of where you want pom poms and what you want them to look like.

2) Start glueing!  Remember to be careful with the hot glue, and hold the pom poms in place for a couple of seconds before releasing.

3) let your sandals cool, and start wearing!  Remember hot glue isn’t a permanent thing, so keep your extra pom poms around in case you wear them enough to need a repair!

Love these sandals!

Step Away From the Skinnies and Try These Jean Trends!

S loves skinny jeans.  So much, she has a drawer full of them.  Em is the opposite.  She owns none.  No matter what your preference, skinny jeans have been the dominant trend for years, but these days new trends have been popping up in the denim department.  Check out some of these trends, and add your favorite to your wardrobe for a fresh look in 2016!

Cropped Flare

black-white-cropped-jean1

This trend was featured in this weeks OOTD. It has been dominating in late 2015, and continues into 2016.  Try this great trend with boots this winter, or with fantastic heels as the weather gets warmer.  Try these from Nordstrom.

Flares

Flare Jean Trend

Okay, maybe the cropped look isn’t your thing.  Go for actual flares.  That’s right, that 70’s vibe is back, so embrace it!

Soft Wide Leg

If flare’s aren’t your thing, try a soft lighter weight denim in a wide leg for a more updated look.

High Waisted

Haven’t embraced this look yet?  Do!  tuck in your shirt, or pair with a crop top, it can be incredibly more flattering than the ultra low cut that was so popular a few years ago.

 

Embrace the new year, and a new trend!

newyearWelcome 2016, and the first birthday of Stylish Two!

Em & S hope everyone had a fantastic 2015, and that 2016 proves to be even better.  We also hope everyone continues to live a the stylish life of their dreams, so to help, here are some fashion resolutions to inspire you!

  1. Try a New trend
    Check out fashion week trends, and wear something that you normally would shy away from!
  2. Clean Out Your Closet
    Out with the old, and in with the new!  Trying bringing your nicer used clothes to a consignment shop to make a little extra money to put toward a new idem.
  3. Try StyleBook
    Try this fun app to organize your closet and help you pick out some great new outfits!
  4.  Challenge Your Heel Height
    Its easy to get stuck in a fashion rut.  If you always wear heels, challenge yourself to try flats, or a lower heel.  Always wear flats, try a kitten heel and see how it can change your outfit!
  5. Break the Fashion Rules
    Wear white after labor day, mix prints, wear floral in the winter.  Rules were meant to be broken after all.
  6. Find a Tailor
    Your pieces look more expensive, and make you look better when they fit your properly.  Find yourself a tailor, and get give your wardrobe an overhaul.
