Every woman would like to have different sets of clothing for different occasions. However, the clothes are something that changes fast: not only because of the fashion trends, but also of wearing out. Sometimes your figure also changes – you become slimmer, or pregnant, or have some extra pounds after the winter and all this require new pieces of clothing. Women like to shop and especially items for their wardrobe: clothes, shoes, and accessories of any type. Unfortunately many women cannot afford frequent shopping due to financial reasons. However, the luck of money or the higher prices of the most fashionable items do not mean that you will never be elegant. Not at all! You should simply know some secrets for perfect wardrobe… Here they are:

The higher the shoes, the better!

This truth is as old as the world. High heels visually lengthen your legs and make you looks “special” and elegant. With two pair of shoes you may do miracles (one pair Is not enough as it will be worn out quite fast). Remember, that ladies shoes must be always in a perfect form and conditions! Hills fit almost to every type of clothing and can be used for creation of many different images.

Go for the classics!

The presence of classic items in your wardrobe is a must. Classic clothing in elegant cuts form the basis of clothing sets. For example, a classic shirt in basic colors – white, black, grey, or blue, can serve as a basis. It remains to choose the appropriate accessories to vary your look.

Learn to play with colors!

Put some color in clothing to create a unique image. The ability of combining different colors will help you to avoid the conversion of clothes to a uniform. It is good to find out what shades suit to the color of your skin and hair. Every theory is nothing without practice; so do not be afraid to experiment! Very stylish is to be dressed in one shade of a color (blue shirt and blue pants, for example) and have a scarf or sleeveless jacket in contrast bold color (i.e. red).

Perfect jeans!

Jeans are the basis for the everyday outfit for many women. Therefore it should be given special attention to their choice. The wide variety of models will allow you to choose jeans that hide your shortcomings and highlight the merits of your figure. Elegant black jeans can be combined either with t-shirt for a Sunday walk or with a white shirt and sport jacket for the working days.

Buy the important things first!

Start shopping with the most important pieces of clothing. Having them already, add the appropriate accessories and shoes. Remember that you are buying a brooch for the dress, not a dress for the brooch. This will allow you not only to avoid chaos, but to save money as well.

Think!

Several studies show that most people take the decision to buy something within the first three seconds after seeing it. Psychologists confirm the existence of spontaneous shopping, followed by the principle “came, saw and bought”. But to have a perfect wardrobe you should learn to assess if you need actually this piece of clothes or not.

Neutral Makeup Style 2011 Fall Winter

  • October 20, 2011 8:09 am

Let’s be honest, makeup is a girl’s best friend. You can correct so many things with makeup and become absolutely stunning with just a few touches. The trends for makeup this fall and winter will definitely bring it to the next level.

The first type of makeup that will be trendy is something really neutral. Forget about mascara and black eyeliner; just add a little blush on your cheeks, a neutral tone like beige or light brown on your eyelids and you are ready to go. If you want to achieve that look but a little more intense you can use dark brown and grey but it will really have to look effortless. Young, natural, perfect skin is the best thing you can choose so make sure that you buy a high end concealer and foundation. You have to look like you are not wearing any makeup but you sparkle. Other trends show a little bit of mascara but nothing on the lids.

Another trend to more natural makeup is bronze smokey eyes. Think about the 60’s and the false lashes they used back then and do that makeup. With peachy colors, browns, beige, bronze, and golden you can really achieve that sexy smokey eye without looking too artificial.

On your lips you will have to choose neutral tones and really light colors that match your skin tone. Pink, neutral browns and rose lipsticks are the best tools you have. Also, don’t forget to buy matte lipsticks because shiny lipsticks will just look unnatural. If you want a shiny touch on your lips you can use a lip-gloss or a bit of shiny lipstick in the middle of your lips. That will also make your lips look fuller and give your mouth a nice shape.

The sun-kissed look is definitely in trend and you can easily achieve it by applying a bronzer on your forehead and where you usually apply your blush. You can also do some contouring on your face with the bronzer if you want it to look slimmer. Just find your cheekbone and draw a smooth line with bronzer underneath it.

Make sure that you choose colors that match your skin tone, peach and golden work best for those with light skin and brown and copper work amazing for those with darker skin. Whatever you choose, make sure it is your style and you feel comfortable wearing it because the trend is all about natural and comfortable.

Boutique Handbags

  • August 22, 2011 6:36 am

The woman’s handbag is something very personal tat discovers completely intimate world. But the bag is an important way for the modern woman to express herself, her visions and style. Many women know that the fastest way to show a new style or even new mood is to buy a new handbag. The bag is part of the code of communication with others and identification of the personality. Even the summer holidays, the hot nights, golden sand and the smell of the sea can not pass without at least three bags in the suitcase…

There are many way to describe a designer’s or boutique bag. In general these are items in very short series or even unique models. Summer is the most appropriate season for showing a boutique handbag to the others, as bags are more “visible” alongside the lack of clothing. Designer handbags have to be part of the wardrobe of every woman, as every unique model tells a story and discovers the personal female universe. Many designers give names to their work so as to show to the public ladies’ character.

Many women think that a boutique handbag is only in neutral colours: black, white, grey or vanilla. This is not through. The designers’ bags can be used not only by women with particular dress code, but also on the street, beach, in the mall… Bold colors of fruits, flowers and sea are used: lilac, raspberry, fuchsia, tomato, green grass, sky. There are exotic prints and many other decorations, which convert the handbag in a piece of art. Leather, textiles, buttons, zippers – everything can be part of a unique boutique bag.

The aesthetics of the woman’s handbag should show elements of beauty and good taste. Sensuality, simplicity and balance are the three basic points of the work of the designers: the materials are more important than the form, simplicity is genius, and the balance between them is the source of perfection. This is the way every women can assess the good boutique handbag.

Certainly, all bags are handmade, original, and different. Each item is designed with the thought of a certain type of woman or even a particular lady – with her lifestyle, preferences for size, shape, color and material. Boutique bags are frequently produced on individual order. Designers offer a belt or hand-painted silk scarf to finish the unique vision. It is really a big advantage to have something personally made in the modern, unified world.

 

Fashion for short ladies

  • August 4, 2011 7:49 am

Every woman can have an impressive look. However, many ladies that are around 150 cm do not believe in this sentence. They are looking all people from the bottom upwards and feel like small girls. Short ladies dream to weak up like the gifted models of at least 170 cm and to step on the catwalk. They are afraid that because of their small stature they would never have an elegant look.

Certainly, this is not truth. Every person, being it tall or short, slim or over weighted, male or female, can have great appearance. The important thing is to wear the proper clothes, which are in conformity with the particularities of the figure. There are some tips, which can help every short lady to feel good and to be elegant despite of the missing centimeters.

The most important in the selection of topcoats is their length. They should not be very long – the best length is around the knee. The long silhouette of coats and cardigans make the figure look taller, but the length below the knee can make the figure even shorter. Slim figures look great in lighter colors, but if there are some kilos plus, shades of gray, brawn, and blue are better. Large prints and multicolored fabrics are killers of the short stature. Many details are also not a good idea. The best are simple cuts, made of fine fabrics. Coarse fabric, cardigans with coarse effect yarns or coats with fur are not for small women.

The choice of a particular ensemble has to be done on the basis of the following parameters: length of the clothing, width in the low part of the body, colors, materials used and accents. Very short or very long skirts make the figure shorter. The best length is 3/4 or 7/8. However, it is not valid for pants – the normal length is much better compared to 7/8 length (Capri trousers). The best shape for pants is “cigarette” type for slim figures or with flared legs, for not so slim ladies. It is better the jackets to be with classical length and cut, as very short or very long jackets are not appropriate for short figures.

The best accessories are the small ones. Hats, bags, belts – everything should be of smaller or normal size. Heels of 4 to 6 cm length are most appropriate, in any case very long heels just underline the lack of stature. High tails and buns should be avoided as well.

If you plan on going to a special event, buy an expensive clutch bag. If it’s a prom, an office party, a conference or a wedding, you need to look your best.

Super expensive bags and clothes that show you are trying too much are never right for such events when things need to be comfortable.
