Miss Fashionista's 2nd step to enhancing your wardrobe

Diva's, Proportion!! Proportion!! Proportion!! That is the next step in understanding your style and upgrading your wardrobe. Everyone has a form and a portion to their body. When dressing you must match that with wearing proportionate clothing. Wearing to big of clothes just looks sloppy and when you wear clothes that are to small it looks hideous. Your clothes need to fit properly.

Do not become fascinated with the Size numbers. You may wear a size 8 in Levis jeans and then a size 6 in a Levis jeans. It is vital that when you go shopping you try on the clothes to make sure the garments fit properly. Look yourself in the mirror and see what your silhouette is:

• Long waist but short legs
• short waist but long legs
• Big busted
• Small bust
• Have a muffin top
  
• Bottom Heavy
• Short
• Tall

Some things you can look at when you hit the mall
Long waist but short legs:
Here we want to create an illusion of longer legs to balance out your sillouete. Think about purchasing some cute heels that will give you some height, belts, and jeans will also bring a taller look as well. just enough to proportion your body. There is nothing wrong with your beautiful short legs but remember proportion we don't want you to look frumpy.
Short waist and long legs
Long legs are beautiful show them off. Stay away from high waist pants and horizontal patterns. You want to buy shirts that hit the hip to elongate your waist.

Big Busted
If you are big busted be proud of your girls. Don't try to make your shape disappear. What you do want to do is focus on lengthening your torso and neck. While shopping look for collars that are narrow and look for tops that are dark colored. When looking at pants you want to look for a more of a lighter color. When shopping for skirts light colors are really for you!

Small Bust
Here if you are small bust and and small at the bottom then you are safe because you have a balance between your body parts. Now if you have little bottom heavy but you have a small bust look at some wide collars and lapels. This will gives the illusion of a bigger bust. Also don't shy away from a padded bra.

Muffin Top
Tunics! Tunics! Tunics! This draws attention away from the stomach and brings it to your neck. Cardigans and long jackets also help. Remember when I say long jackets, I mean length but it still has to fit you. You don't want to look like a frumpy Diva. When wearing a pant you want a smooth front instead of one with a pleat it adds on to the muffin tummy.

Bottom Heavy
There is nothing wrong with your curves but you don't want your curves to get all out of place. Here you want to emphasize your shoulders to take away the attention from your hips.
Dark colors work best with your silhouette. Skirts and dresses are great with your figure. Your figure actually puts a nice shape to the dress.

Short
High waist pants and skirts are your friend! Get you a nice heel. Stay away from cropped jackets.

Tall
In my search of looking for clothes for tall women I found that they are more expensive. That is okay because there are all kinds of deals out there on the internet. Wide belts and flared skirts are a great option for you.

Looking at the Diva in the Mirror

If you want a quality wardrobe that makes you feel good then you need to look in the mirror. I say this because your wardrobe represents your style and who you are. Diva's let's be real you can't be like everyone on television, in the magazines, and frankly should not want to be! Sit and think about who you are. This should bring an epiphany don't spend the time being negative, instead be positive, and understand there is nothing wrong with you being YOU!
Think outside of the box do not get trapped in these labels and boxes because You will never fit in them! You are not suppose to anyway. Jot down some notes and be honest with yourself. There are plenty of things we need to fix but we can't dwell on the negative. This experience is suppose to bring you more of an understanding of who You are and it is something you should be proud of!!! This is one of the first steps of enhancement and growth. There maybe something that You may want to alter but keep in mind that you are the Diva you are for a reason.

Go Ahead Diva Look Yourself in the Mirror and Explore Who You Are!

Cuff Sandal Analysis! Is it a hot or cold trend?

One of the hottest trends right now is the cuff sandal. I have been seeing these trendy sandals everywhere. The thing is I have seen some really cute ones and I have seen some that were not head turners at all. They have them in this cloth material, leather, on high heel sandals, and thong sandals. Though this is a trend I am not sure how long it will last because this sandal is not attractive on everyone's foot. The cloth material which I have seen in stores and on different individuals foot, I have found to look sloppy and an eye sore. I find that it may also be a little difficult to put outfits together with this shoe. I do like the cloth material cuff on the wedge sandal and heel, but with the flat sandals it is just a turn off. I have also seen the leather version of this shoe which I actually admire and I find to be stunning. I found a couple on endless.com that were fabulous. I like the way the leather cuff sandal cuffs around the ankle which gives a chic look. When you find a cuff sandal that you like a pair of skinny jeans and jean shorts is a must as well. The skinny jeans or shorts with the sandal is a great combination. I can see a party outfit or even a casual outfit with the cuff sandal. This part of the trend can carry over into the begging of fall as well.

What are some of your thoughts on this trend Divas?

Miss Fashionista's Highlights

Tanks, linen pants, and a sun hat for spring never gets old! It is comfortable and it is sassy! That is why it is my highlighted pieces for Spring! A cool color tank: White, tan, yellow, turquoise, orange, and pastels are great colors for tanks. Once again lace is a big deal this Spring/Summer so try to get a laced tank. Notice this tank from Forever 21 has lace.
A sun hat is so necessary for Spring/Summer and it is great for the beach, a lunch date, or an outdoor shopping day. I love sun hats and with linen pants and a tank it is sassy outfit that you can feel dashing, confident, and it brings out the simple diva in you. I choose white and red these are colors that will match my wardrobe for spring/summer 2010. You can have any color sun hat as long as the color scheme flows. A nice high heel sandal will make this outfit or even a wedge sandal. Linen pants are cool pieces of cloth and so are tanks. Perfect for any diva in the Spring/Summer!

Graceful Sunday

Graceful Sunday! Happy Easter everyone. Last week while surfing the web I found this cute dress that was just perfect for today's Graceful Sunday Fashion recommendation. I found this dress at Topshop.com. The color is fresh and dainty. The dress itself flows and the color rejuvenates you. The great shoe to match with this is a nice wedge, high heel sandal, and you can even get away with a flat shoe. I personally choose a wedge because the wedge provides proportion for the outfit. I also love the shoe. I found this wedge sandal at Topshop.com. This is a perfect spring outfit.

A piece of 1980's Fashion

1980's fashion is a distinctive and captivating piece of fashion history. The colors were so bright and vibrant. The accessories were full of gold earrings, clutch bags with different colors and prints, and matching shoes. Hats made a huge comeback and everyone seemed to be in their pantie hose. Though I love bright colors I think my favorite part of the 1980's were those huge shoulder pads! Well as history shows that women did not have a equal opportunity in the work place. These shoulder pads brought an identity or status for women in the workplace. These shoulder pads were made so that women in the 1980's can be acknowledged at their office. The shoulder pads in the coats transformed to dinner parties and night outings. Women use to dress it up with gold jewelry. The shoulder pants represented more than just the trend in the 1980's. It represented a new movement for women and equality. Freedom!

The 1980's have mad a comeback in todays fashion trend just look at the examples below

Fragrance Spotlight

Carolina Herrera! Breath taking and a timeless desiner and visonary. She has already lacnched her new fragrance CH (Carolina Herrera) If you go to her website you can get a free sample http://www.carolinaherrera.com/ (Hurry while supplies last). I just received my sample and I am quite pleased with the sent. It is not over bearing. It is a fragrance I would wear for night outings. I think you should give it a try!

leotards/Bodysuits

I love bodysuits/leotards!!!!!! I remember having one as a kid and it was a turtle neck style. Very sleek and classy. This is a Fierce yet classic look. I found so many on Victoriassecret.com I also found some on Macys.com, and other various websites. They are very comfy and and brings effortless confidence. I think they look real good with a suit, or even a skirt. The one I plan to order is in the picture. What do you think. I suggest that all of us ladies get one. Even in the fall the bodysuit will work. You can get one in the turtle neck style, you can get one in this style that is posted, and you can still go lace but maybe with long sleeves.! This works for everyone! Be Fierce and bring life to your wardrobe!!!

Fierce Friday

Come on ladies lace is in and that is exaclty what I am inspired by today. Do you remember the 1980's sex symbol Vanity 6? I do and well their style is back and revamped. I think lace brings a fierce sexiness that is necessary for a Friday. Ladies don't be shy its all about proportion and good taste. I think if done correctly any size can pull this look off.



Colors:
Black, creme, white, deep blue
