What Your Clothing Color Says About You-Red

Red is considered to be a power house and it makes you stand apart in a crowd. Red is known for stimulating the creative juices and energizing you. Red also acts as a stimulant for the opposite sex and makes you look extremely attractive.

Traits of Red: Strength, productivity, energy, power, passion and high sexual energy.

Smart tip: If you are in a position of authority, it may sometimes makes you look a little aggressive. So never go for a complete red dress. Accessories it well with a neutral hue.

Wear a Little Pink Dress.

The little black dress? A classic, of course. But there's no rule that says you can't veer into a pretty bright color occasionally.

Hot pink makes for a gorgeous little black dress substitute. Just keep details to a minimum (brights look best in minimal shapes) and go easy on the accessories to let the dress take center stage.

Easy Way to Look Taller-
Choose one strong vertical element. An unbuttoned jacket or vest can give you that strong vertical line that keeps the eye moving up and down, rather than across. The sheath dress is the perfect dress silhouette to create a strong vertical line. Slim pants worn with a tunic top, a long scarf wrapped around your neck with ends left dangling and layers of long necklaces all create a strong vertical presence as well. Even going with vertical seaming or prints can add to the eye traveling up and down rather than across.

How to Dress an Apple-Shaped Figure 

-Create the illusion of a waist. Opt for visual illusion of a waist. You can do this either by choosing a style with a set-in waist, by adding a belt or looking for some sort of styling element -- such as beading or tucks at the waistline -- to create more of an hourglass look and make the waist look smaller. Melissa McCarthy's black banding at the waistline (see photo) is a great example of how to make this visual element work for apple-shaped figures.

Flatter Your Figure:

The most important feature of your new dress is how well it flatters you.

Remember that darker colors and simple cuts (a sheath, an A-line) are the most flattering.

Show off your best feature. If you have gorgeous eyes, then play them up with beautiful makeup, off-the-face hair and jeweled earrings in a complimentary shade.

Not sure what your best asset is? Ask a friend or significant other. Or go to a store that sells special occasion dresses and enlist the salesperson's help.

Special Occasion Dresses
Which dress is best for your body type including special occasion, formal and prom styles.

Decide on Formality:

Usually the event invitation will clue you into the formality of the event, whether it's casual or black tie. But sometimes even that will cause confusion (short dress or long?)

In general, the later in the day the event (after 6 p.m.), the dressier. Long dresses are usually reserved only for formal (black tie) occasions.

While some fabrics are year-round -- silk, brocade, organza, jersey -- fabrics like velvet and gold spangles are best reserved for winter holidays.

Wear a Statement Necklace with Your Little Black Dress.

Let your accessories do the talking when you wear a statement necklace with a little black dress like Samantha Harris is doing. If you wear a necklace this major, be sure to keep other accessories to a minimum to let the necklace take center stage.

Think Fit and Flare
One of the classic recommendations for the bottom-heavy figure is the full skirt. It's still a great option, especially for dresses. How to make the full skirt work:

-Go for a fit and flare silhouette. Draw attention to the waist with a belt, gathers, band or other feature. The skirt should flare out from the fitted waist.

-Take the fit and flare silhouette one step further by opting for a strapless dress. You'll get the benefit of showing off your shoulders, while concealing your hips. Also, the strong line of bare shoulders helps balance a wider bottom half.

Balance Figure with Color, Fitted Pieces.
You can wear a fitted suit, even with a slim skirt, if you are bottom heavy. Just remember:

-Keep the line long by using all one color with slim-cut pieces. It elongates and slims the figure.

-Choose fitted jackets that end well above your widest point.

-Wear a top or jacket with structured shoulders, puffy sleeves, etc. to balance out your larger bottom half.

-Rely on a form-fitting, but never tight, skirt in a non-clingy fabric.

Never wear anything that hits you at your widest point.
Garments that "end" at your widest body part cause that body part to visually widen. In short: you look fatter. And we don't want that.

Horizontal Stripes
Why you should wear horizontal stripes: Horizontal stripes get a bad rap for making women look shorter and broader, but when done the right way horizontal stripes can be extremely flattering and balance out body flaws. What you don't want to do with horizontal stripes is wear them on your largest body part: broad shoulders with a horizontally striped top will just make you look broader.

Put some weight on, really..!!

It's not quite as good as permission to eat unlimited dessert, but when it comes to clothing, heft can do a lot of good. "Heavier fabric skims the body and will lay or drape nicely,".

Unlike silks and shiny materials, these don't cling as tightly, calling attention to every lump and bump. But, beware of anything that straddles the line between thick and shapeless. "Boucle and tweed can look old if they make up an entire suit, and can add unnecessary bulk to your body,".

Mix, match, and remember the power of a waist-defining belt.

The Secrets to Dressing Sexy at Any Age

Less is not more

Whoever instigated the rule that you need to cover your arms or knees after a certain age was plain wrong.
"As you get older, you can wear the same shapes you did when you were 20, but you'll look more polished and feel more confident if you show a little less skin. Accentuate what you love about yourself — a miniskirt if you've got great legs or a body-conscious dress, but pair them with tights and a thin V-neck cardigan or a blazer for more coverage."
"Shoulders are a sexy body part that don't get a lot of exposure.The back of a woman's neck is sexy, so wearing your hair up is nice. Hair worn away from the face signals confidence!"

Ultramarine Green

More vivid than emerald, this breathtaking color can breathe new life into a drab closet. While donning pants in the shade takes a lot of bravery, a scarf in Ultramarine Green will instantly add pop. Or slip on a piece in the shade that can be easily layered, such as a tank or blouse, under a neutral-toned cardigan or blazer — titanium would make for a sharp color combination.

Softer than black, this rich, dark brown feels both cozy and elegant. The deep earth tone balances out some of fall's vivid color trends, so opt for classics such as pencil skirts and blazers in French Roast.

 Pink Flambe

Women who tend to stick to muted colors need not shy away from this fun hue. "If you don't like bright colors, you can use it as an accent in an otherwise neutral pattern or color block away from your face,". "The human mind is ingrained to use color in a creative, outrageous way. Think back to your childhood when you'd grab the brightest Crayon and just start scribbling." Experimenting with prints that incorporate small touches of Pink Flambe can add instant playfulness to your wardrobe.

Titanium

Pieces in dark, steely gray act as wardrobe staples because the neutral tone is easy to mix and match with bright colors (like the aforementioned tangerine tango), as well as other neutrals (like tan or black). Rather than buying another pair of skinny bluejeans, opt for titanium-colored jeans to make even your favorite, worn-out tee look more polished.

This is one of the trickiest trends to get right for Pour Femme's ladies: If the hemline is just an inch or two off, you're in dowdy-ville. But the midi can work no matter your height: Just choose a column style (no dirndls please!), add a sleek top, and make sure your skirt hits no more than five inches below your knee.
you can always have it altered to a shorter length if you decide later you don't like it.
