Fashion Ideas for Independence Day

Leave a comment

So the 4th of July is almost here which means the nations remembrance of Independence Day will be marked with fireworks, barbecues, picnics, family reunions but for some of us it also means fashion combinations of red, white and blue.

But what if you didn’t get that US flag T-shirt that was on sale or that stars and stripe pair of shorts that is now sold out?

Look at the calendar! Only a week left to order something and there is nothing left! OH, this can’t be happening! What to do?

Calm down, we are here to help. A few simple ideas can go a long way to fill in those last minute needs for that beach party or bond fire you are going to without feeling out of place.

US Flag Sunglasses 
No matter what you wear a pair of US flag sunglasses always makes a great 4th of July accessory along with giving you the freedom to open up the rest of your outfit to other options. There are several different brands and styles of US Flag sunglasses such as round, oval, heart shape, glitter, metal frame, plastic frame and even peace symbol ones so it really is up to you to select which one works for you.

Wear a white top with blue bottoms or a blue top with white bottom. 
OK, this may sound over done but that is because it works! You knock out two of the three colors in one shot, but I know you are thinking, ‘I really didn’t need to read this to figure this out’. Maybe you did, because every time someone says white top it quickly translates to ‘White T-shirt’ and blue bottom to ‘Blue shorts’. Did you stop for a moment and think about switching the colors around if you wanted to be noticed at a party? Remember, the flag is red, white and blue so unless you actually have the flag pattern on your clothes what you need to do is make sure you have all 3 colors on you. So a Blue top with white bottoms kind of covers that without breaking any rules, looks cute and makes sure you stand out of the crowd. Well you could be one of 20 other girls with the white t-shirts and blue denim shorts at that party or you can be that one girl with the cute blue denim shirt and the white denim shorts, it really is up to you.

Use Red Accessories 
If you concentrate the use of red to your accessories while allowing white and blue to dominate your clothing you will find it will free up your options. Having red nail polish, red handbag, a red hat, red scarf, red hair pieces, red jewelry, red shoes, or any other red accessories can make a big difference in your outfit while spreading out your patriotic sense of fashion. So what are you waiting for? Make up for lost time and get something together for the 4th of July right now.


Summer is a great time to show your style and experiment with colors and patterns. Styling your staple summer items is fun and it’s a great opportunity to explore where your personal style can go if you’re willing to get creative. Many online stores out there have bulk selections but a few have premium selections at affordable prices, like Fierce Berry for example with the motto “Be fiery, be bold, be fierce” it just asks you to challenge your fashion selections with a fiery, bold and fierce twist found

Being overweight doesn’t mean you can’t look fabulous! All it takes is a little know-how and a healthy dose of confidence. Looking good is not about the number on your clothing tags, but about dressing yourself in a way that makes you feel comfortable and shows off your features. It’s time to use fashion to make the most of your curves.

Learn about how to accentuate or hide certain areas of your body

The cut, the colors and patterns you use can attract attention to your body or out of this Notes the following tips.:

  • Light colors and dark colors accentuate hidden. If you like your waist, used on a dark shirt a cute light belt. If you want to hide from your waist down, I recommend that you use pants that are dark and a clearer blouse.
  • Small prints make you look thinner, while the big make you look bulky.
  • Do not use horizontal stripes. The stripes look great on plus size clothing, especially if they are vertical or diagonal stripes. If you want the bust area look bigger, use horizontal stripes in this area.
  • Do not use flights or flying, as will make you look smaller and chubby (o);put them in areas you want to emphasize.
  • Use ruffled garments in areas you want to look slimmer. For example; You can wear a swimsuit one piece that has gathered portions in the belly.
  • Choose colors that you favor and fit you well. The color that suits you makes your skin tone shine, while a wrong color makes you look haggard and yellow.

Used underwear that fits you well

Underwear is really the foundation of your appearance; it is difficult to look good when you use loose undergarments that do not fit enough.

  • Use a bra that fits you really well. A bra that has good support up your figure and makes you look younger, also prevents back pain. If you’re not sure of your size, you should visit to a department store for a test.
  • To cover some volume from your thighs and hips, you have to use underwear high legs and waist made of firm cotton anatomic.
  • Do not wear underwear too small, rather it should be a regular size that covers enough. If you do not find the right size in local stores or mall, looking online.

Choose models and fabrics that promote your waist down

If you are pear-shaped or carry weight in your legs or hips, I advise you to take note of the following:

  • Choose waisted pants and skirts. Do not use flared and wide-legged pants.
  • Neglects shapeless garments like dresses and skirts size straight. Rather buy a garment that has a belted waist.
  • If you like skirts, opt for those that are cut A. Forget the straight skirts.
  • At least have in your closet a pair of jeans that fit well. Straight-leg jeans or skinny dark look great.
  • With shims you must be very careful. For most girls, a nice long skirt with leggings gives them a more stylish appearance and slim. But if you own thighs, hips or bottom bulkier, do not use hose.

Tips: Choosing a Mother of the Bride Dress

Leave a comment

It is important to attend the marriage of his daughter with the mother of the bride dresses. There are many mother of the bride dresses available, but took the best is flattering really a great and difficult task. Here are some steps for you to avoid the pitfalls.

Choosing your mother of the bride dresses can seem daunting. You are not the center of attention however there will be eyes on you and certain expectations to be met.

Pants suit or dress?

A wedding day can be a long day, exciting, enjoyable but long! Choosing an outfit that you are comfortable in is as important as making the correct impact on the day.

There are pros and cons for choosing a pants suit over a dress, long dress over a knee-length or a casual outfit over a more formal one but in the end comfort has to be a factor.

The color of your outfit will also be a consideration. Do you complement or match the bridesmaids and bridal party? Do you tie in with the overall color scheme? Or do you go your own way. These are considerations to be discussed with the bride however your comfort should remain upper most in your mind.

Shoes, to heel or not to heel?

If you are anything like me you will feel glamorous in a heel but – they can be very uncomfortable. Many people now provide wedding flip-flops at the reception to relieve sore. tired feet which allow you to keep enjoying the night.

Your shoes should obviously complement your outfit and quite possibly the time of year will determine the style.

Hat vs Fascinator

A wedding is a fabulous excuse for a hat or fascinator and these days there is a huge choice including the hybrid, hatinator. As the mother of the bride you can be as flamboyant or as subtle as you choose.

Fascinators can be attached using a headband or a clip. You hairstyle will be a factor in which of these will suit you best. It’s a good idea to discuss which to choose and how to wear it with your hairdresser. They should be able to style your hair and pop your fascinator or hat on as a practice for the big day.

Bags and accessories

Generally speaking a clutch is normal for evening although a larger bag can be useful for daytime so a wedding bag has to really be all-encompassing. What size you choose can depend on a number of factors such as time of year, your personal preference and believe it or not the venue.

To me clutch bags are summery whereas over the shoulder is more wintery but that’s just me. You might find that your daughter will need you to carry some of her stuff like tissues, mobile, lipstick etc. so that should be a consideration when you are making your choice.

If you are staying overnight in the venue where the reception is being held then bear in mind you will have a room and easy access to it throughout the evening event. This can reduce the amount of items you need to carry around such as touch up makeup, extra tissues or perfume.

Your accessories should complement your outfit and be ‘you’ if you understand what I mean. Don’t go too chunky or bejewelled if that’s simply not your personal style. Understated jewelry can look fabulous.

When all is said and done the mother of the bride is a very important role on the wedding day and you should take time to make sure you enjoy every moment of it. You have probably spent a huge amount of time helping, organizing and preparing for this day so reap your rewards.

As you start to gather your outfit, shoes, bags and other accessories always bear in mind that there will be photographs and people will be looking at you. You don’t want to look back at photos and see your ‘I’m uncomfortable’ face.

Buying online is always a great option and today so many companies offer great returns policies that it makes sense to order a few different styles and try them on in the comfort of your own home in the knowledge that you can send some or all of them back.

You can also make a day of it and visit a variety of suitable shops and try on a range of outfits utilizing the advice and guidance of the shop assistant.

Choose you outfit and accessories carefully, give your self plenty of time to get organized and above all else enjoy this most special of days.

White summer dresses are simple and refreshing. Use either a white dress is a bit tricky, because it is a color that represents simplicity.Here I leave you some important tips on how to use either a white dress.

All women can not use a pure radiant white tone, but luck they have is that there is a white tone for each type of complexion. A cool skin tones with splashes of pink and blue suits them very well harmonize with classic white and silver accessories.

A type skin tones with touches of reddish bronze or yellow, orange you really like the guy crude white tones, mainly when combined with gold accessories.Ivory tones skin type with red, or yellow tiles are more versatile and very well for them raw and white colors pure white, and also accessories gold and silver.

Choose an opaque white dress and thick fabric

Most white cloth sometimes has the disadvantage of being transparent. When berries to buy your white dress, you have to look at how transparent it is. For that, you have to realize this:

  • Wear the dress with light
  • Place your hand behind the dress
  • Mia your hand and see that both shows through. If you see the shape and color of your hand, it is because the dress is very transparent and show everything that has underneath. You just have to buy this type of dress if you have the right underwear.

Choose quality fabric

It is more complicated than can be observed through a fabric quality. Most of the dresses have lining. To find a thicker fabric, you have to look blends of cotton, linen and some other synthetic fabrics.

Do not use tight white dresses

White is not very favorable when it sticks to your curves. Rather, you must choose a white dress that has a beautiful fall. The bank evokes freedom, summer and bisa, so you have to make sure your dress reflects this.

Used underwear the same color as your skin tone

Clothes white interior is very noticeable on the white cloth, so it is better not to use it. I recommend you use underwear that is skin color, that way you make sure that nothing sneaks glances and take the wrong area. Use bra, panties background color and skin.

Choose the right shoes to match a white dress

White is the color of simplicity and purity. If you want to highlight, you have to choose red heels. For many women this type of heels are greatly exaggerated and if you think so, then choose the following:

  • Coffee, camel, beige and light gray are perfect for combining
  • The silver, gold or bronze sandals harmonize well with white
  • White shoes or white sandals can create an overloaded effect.
