Dresses are supposed to be the most flattering and feminine thing a woman can wear, but sometimes a dress can add more than ten pounds of percieved weight simply by being unflattering.
Five Ways A Dress Makes You Look Fat
Three Pretty Pink Dresses
I’m messing around with a new project at the moment called ‘All The Pink Dresses‘. Basically, I’m going to review or at least mention all the pink dresses. In the world. Because I feel that is realistic.
Anyway, here are the first three pink dresses.
I chose the Eryn Stripe Dress by Lilly Pulitzer as the alpha pink dress because of its vintage styling and the fact that you’ll be terrified to wear it anywhere that hasn’t been professionally cleaned by surgical teams. That’s because it is pretty and shiny and made from Organza. You don’t see a great deal of traditional Organza these days, mostly because ever since we discovered synthetics, convincing silk moths to breed and then stealing the resultant pupae and boiling them alive has just seemed a wee bit tedious.
The Gold Trim Drape Maxi Dress from Bebe is a Maxi Dress in pink with snakeskin patterns on it. This looks like something Julia Roberts would have worn as Richard Gere redeemed her from a life of sin by throwing money at her until she was finally socially acceptable enough to shop in high end stores, if Pretty Woman had been filmed in 2011 and not sometime in the 80′s or something like that.
I was drawn to this dress the moment I laid eyes upon its name. It was a name filled with such burgeoning pretension that I knew the dress attached to it would have to be something very special indeed. I was not wrong. The L’Wren Scott Pivoine Jaquard Dress is a bustier dress, which means that underclothing will not be necessary when wearing this dress. Indeed, underclothing will probably only get in your way.
You and Your Shirt Dress
It’s a shirt! It’s a dress! It’s a shirt dress! Back in the good old days, when it was still acceptable for a woman to regard a vacuum cleaner as a long lost family member, it wouldn’t have been acceptable for there to have been any confusion between shirt and dress states. Indeed, anyone who wore a piece of attire that blurred the line between shirt and dress would have been ostracized as a person of poor moral fiber.
Khloe Kardashian and the Zebra Print Dress
Khloe’s zebra striped dress, which cantered out at a season finale party for ‘The Spin Crowd’, received a great deal of attention of the negative kind who made incessant references to Khloe looking like an actual zebra. Indeed, if she’d come out simply wearing the carcass of a zebra she might have received less attention.
White Lace Dress | Your Spring Minimalism
One of the biggest trend touching down for the coming year is the concept of lace as outerwear. Say goodbye to the little black dress and welcome the little white lace dress if you know what’s good for you, because lace is going to be absolutely everywhere. (Seriously, everywhere, like a fashionable kind of vermin you can wear without PETA doing their heads in.)
