5/7/2019 0 Comments CROP TOP: THE SECRET TO DAREThe crop top is able in re-proportioning body lengths through its length. Up to the navel for those who are slimmer, under the navel for those with a relaxed abdomen, just above the hip for those with roundness. In all cases, it is a clever way to slender the body shape, especially legs. Main fabrics are cotton or viscose jersey to make them fresh and simple to wear, while colors are quite clear and enlivened by hints of navy blue and mustard yellow. The most popular are: >OFF SHOULDER (1) >FEATURED WITH COLLAR (2) >FEATURED WITH KNOTS OR BOWS (3) >BANDEAU (4) >FEATURED WITH SKINNY STRAPS (5) Pair crop tops with a long and soft skirt or match with your favorite palazzo pants or baggy jeans to play with the volumes. Do not forget to twin them with a jacket or blazer for all formal situations.

From big stars musical performances to red carpets of world festivals, lingerie has always created a bit of fuss and erotic fantasies in the eye of the beholder. But now underclothing is the real protagonist of most women daily looks. Well structured bras used as under-jacket or top, loose satin trousers to combine with heeled sandals and soft silk jackets. To avoid pajama effects, pair a single piece with other basic garments; do not exaggerate with make-up, jewelry and -bare in mind!- slippers or loafers . Cherry red, light blue, pink, antique pink: it enhances your femininity with lace lingerie or satin fabric if it is an evening context whilst printed glossy viscose for your daytime looks.
16/5/2019 0 Comments MIDI SKIRTS: LONGER MEANS WISERLet's talk again about midi skirts. Also in this season they are wild cards for every women’s outfit. The brilliant thing with midi skirts is that they’re ideal for making legs looking longer, even if you are petite. It’s all about getting the right lenght, whether that’s slightly above the ankle or just below the knee. Don’t be afraid to exhibit your body- it’s ultimately always going to be more flattering . If you don’t feel brave enough to go for something figure - hugging try fluted styles and A-line shapes that will skim your silhoutte instead. TAILOR MIDI SKIRTS Show off your shape in a pencil skirt or fitted option: high-waisted styles are ideal if you want to create the illusion of an hourglass shape. Simply tuck in your top for extra definition, or dare to bare with a coordinating crop top. ASYMMETRIC MIDI SKIRTS If you want legs to appear longer, asymmetric hems are ideal. The uneven shape means the eye is drawn away from one focal point on your legs to give the illusion of lenght. Team with heels or flatforms for an extra boost. FIT ‘N’ FLARE MIDI SKIRTS
An A-line option or bias cut is ideal to skim your hips and thighs and to balance out your body. Keep your top half streamilined to ensure your outfit doesn’t swamp you. 21/3/2019 0 Comments Gingham PRINTThere is a feminine fantasy that I really like and which is constantly present in all spring-summer fashion collections. Tremendously it refers to a retro taste (40s and 50s) together with sensual and fun charm at the same time as well as iconic since Brigitte Bardot was the first to show it off. It is gingham print (or vichy fantasy): a set of small colored squares generally on a white background. The most classic use is related holiday outfits: blouses or knotted shirts to be combined with simple shorts, or vice versa (do not abuse of this print- one garment is enough!). For metropolitan looks, opt for buttoned shirts to match with white trousers or stretch jeans. Instead, if you wear gingham print trousers or skirt, use tops in the same colors of the little squares. Seasonal trends see "vichy checked" overcoats in vogue as alternative and unique item for all city looks.
This spring don't miss a good jeans selection. Timeless, always trendy and incredibly versatile: you can create all outfits you wish. Choices should be made on personal taste regarding wash finish, line and model. Skinny jeans is the wrap model, adherent on hips, legs and ankles. I think it's the most difficult to most wear but also the most advantageous and elegant one. Opt for regular high-ankle fit to highlight your footwear. Slim jeans is the one with close-fitting leg over the entire length. The most suitable for sporty looks. Opt for a normal waist and ultra-stretch fabrics for further shaping effect. Beautiful with loafers or sabot. Straight jeans is classic ‘90s model with straight leg. Pick one with a low waist with rips: it’s a short step from straight model to boyfriend one. Suggested with sandals or ankle boots. Flare is the '70s model, wide from knees. It can slim body making legs thinner. For 2019 spring-summer opts for a mini-flare to match with “compact-sneakers”.
