Fashion Tales: True or False

-
There has always been a rule book or guidelines to fashion, whether it is tricks to look slimmer or curvier in the right areas or what not to wear after labor day. Well it is time to put an end to all the myths!

1. Monotones make you appear slimmer.
TRUE - Wearing patterns with an array of multiple colors gives the eye more to look at and actually compliment your figure as opposed to a solid color.

2. No white after Labor Day
FALSE - White can be glamorous all throughout the year if you do it right! Just instance, you would not wear white linen pants in the winter but a nice all white turtle neck would be so chic!

3. Your shoes and handbag have to match
FALSE - The days of matchy matchy are long behind us! A turquoise bag would pair lovely with a gold sequin heel. As long as your colors compliment each other your good!

4. "Dry Clean" can't be washed
FALSE - As long as it does not say "Dry Clean Only" just wash your clothes on a mild wash with a light fabric cleaning detergent.

5. Layers make you look thinner
FALSE - In fact layers can make you look baggier and accentuates your problem areas more. Wearing fitted/tailored jackets, blouse or ruffles can create a more slimming appearance than layers.

I am soooo happy that Summer is coming to and end! Don't get me wrong I love sunny days, cook outs, pools, picnics, theme parks etc but BUMP THAT I am ready to dress my butt off for the fall! A lot of naive people think that barely wearing any clothes is sexy...well let me tell you! There is nothing sexier than a woman that knows how to dress! And that is confident! It takes a creative type of women to layer and combine colors you wouldn't even think match but compliment each other very well!  I love love love wearing blazers, boots, hats, leg warmers, cardigans, jeans, leather leggings ugh I am drooling as I type this!! Any who I have scrapped together a bunch of looks I love from my Pinterest so enjoy my fashionistas! To see more of my choices on Pinterest click here
