Flower Power
Spring
dresses are hitting stores and the make me want to shop! Designers are adding
lots of soft feminine touches on top of flowing fabrics and they ooze
girliness. My favorite of all are the dresses with 3-D flowers. Appliqués are adorning
lapels, skirts, bodices… you name it, it’s got a flower. Here are some pictures
for a little inspiration when you hit the stores this Spring.
Enjoy!

Don’t knock it ‘til you’ve tried it
When
shopping for a dress, the number one rule should always be “Try it on before
deciding it’s not for you.” People tend to use this as a mantra when they go
wedding dress shopping but for some reason it is rarely applied to other
circumstances. This is a great way to find out what really looks best on you
rather than just finding something similar to what you have worn in the past.
Styles change every year, designers have little undetectable nuances to their
pattern making and every dress is slightly different. So don’t knock it ‘til
you’ve tried it.

Here’s a
great example of a fabulous dress. On the hanger it looks like nothing. The
folds in the fabric look unflattering, you can already tell by the way it’s
shriveled up that it’s going to be too tight, and the extra fabric around the
neck is just awkward. But humor me… try it on.

When you
get it on and you see the way it hugs your body but hides your imperfections,
it’s perfect. The way it’s sexy but it shows off your collarbones, cleavage,
and accentuates your neck is just the right amount of sexy. Not to mention it
actually covers your arms without having to wear a jacket or shawl… genius.
It’s young, sophisticated, sexy and not too revealing.
So maybe
it’s not always love at first sight and it’s not the obvious choice but try it
on anyway. You’ll be amazed at what flatters you the most and you’ll be
thrilled at how gorgeous you look.

Best dressed and bleeding Giant blue
Did you
catch the red carpet coverage of last night’s SAG Awards? As usual, lots of the
women looked gorgeous but when we thought about who we thought won the honor of
“Best Dressed” we realized these beauties were all wearing the colors of our
hometown team for Sunday’s big game. Tell us what you think… did we miss a gown you’re dying for?
