It’s a perfect time to buy color and add to your wardrobe.  Everything from corral hues to bright green and blue is in store for every personality.  Color is essential to a wardrobe.  In lingerie just like clothing, make sure to incorporate one color item into your wardrobe.  Style advice:  Take an existing item in your wardrobe and reinvent it with a color camisole.  Even better, pick a theme for your wardrobe and color coordinate your intimate apparel.

 

Cover it Up…In style!

The beach is calling all divas again. It’s time to get the suit and suntan lotion. In addition to the basics, don’t forget the sundress or cover up. This frock has been re-birthed from basic sarong to sensational and comfortable dress. If you have a spring break event or social, consider the sundress as plan b for waterfront activities. It can go from day to evening in a flash. Soak up the sun in style… Fit Advice – Consider a clear strap convertible bra to enhance the fit of the dress, and a seamless thong or boy short for a flawless finish.

Short Dress Solution

I was browsing through the recent issue of US Weekly and absolutely loved the Dolce and Gabanna short dress spread with celebrities galore! Each one was a delicate bouquet of lace, sheer fabrics and details that would make any woman go oh yes, I am fabulous! A short dress can have some challenges when it comes to fit solutions. Sometimes it can be too short and show a little too much, or it needs the enhancement of a shapewear slip to give a little more shape and lift. I would recommend going back to the full slip for the perfect fit. You don’t have to do boring black or beige anymore, spice it up diva with a one piece number that has style. Remember, lingerie is no longer for someone special it’s about women loving themselves from the inside out. Grab your clutch girlfriend and be fierce!

Fun in the Sun!

Swimsuit season is in session! Today’s suits are packed with features and benefits that give us ladies that something special when lounging at the pool.  A once piece bathing suit is perfect if you want to elongate your torso, and conceal some challenges in areas you just don’t feel good about.  Add a trouser or skirt, and now you look like your going to a party. The swimsuit has gone beyond just the pool side, it’s now fashionista divine!

Advice:  Just like a bra, you should never own just one swim suit.  Own at least two or more and rotate to keep them looking like new!

 

The New Lounge Dress

Spring break is just around the corner.  It’s time for us to head to the beach, the city, or just stay home.  No matter the occasion, looking good and feeling good has never been better with the new range of sophisticated lounge wear collections available. A new revolution in intimate apparel has begun.  Women have clamored for a combination of sleepwear meets daywear.  Women are on the go, and nobody wants to look as if you just rolled out of bed (even though sometimes we did).  When taking time off, being comfortable and looking comfortable is essential.  My new favorite is the lounge dress that has a dramatic appeal.  Dress it up or down.  Your mocha is waiting at the coffee house.  Pick it up in style!

 

Dare to Wear…Shapely, Sexy, Fun!

The layers are now less now that spring is here. The key word in fashion this season is “unique”. We sometimes tend to gravitate towards the norm. Why not try something different including a top that makes a statement from the back. Dressing to impress can take on a new meaning with a shapewear top that sizzles. I highly recommend a strapless or convertible bra to compliment the fit. No bra straps allowed! Are you afraid of the “overflow” issues from behind? Have no fear just add a high waist brief that comes to the bra line and voila your smooth diva! Since you have shapewear built into the top, it will keep everything in control.

Smart Fashion Solutions: Spring Trend – The Reversible Skirt

The skirt is making a statement this season as a fashion must have (as usual)!  One of my favorite looks is a camisole, topped with a cardigan sweater and then both items belted over the skirt.  Retro meets mainstream, it really speaks fashionista!

Can you imagine if that same skirt could be flipped inside out?  That’s right, two for the price of one!  As the song says, could it be I’m falling in love….add hosiery (lighter weight for spring and summer temperatures) to complete your look.  Bella!

LFE Miracles in Minutes© – The Ultimate Must Have Dress

The dress is the rage of the runway.  It’s about being sexy, feminine and sophisticated.  As I was reviewing latest collection from Doncaster, I came across a dress that is called the “Miracle Dress”.   If you’re a woman who needs a 9 to 5 and after 5 party time staple, this is it!  The dress has a very chic boat neck design that creates an automatic curve on your frame.  The fabric is AMAZING!  You can sit for hours and it will not wrinkle.

The elasticity of the garment allows you to have an instant shaping solution.  Since owning a little black dress is a requirement for most women, just reinvent the dress periodically with a scarf, handbag, pendant (hot spring trend), or belt and your ready to rock it sister!  Fit advice:  don’t forget nothing makes an outfit more complete than seamless underwear.  A must have for dressing flawless.

What to wear to the swimming pool…and love how you look!

The swim suit used to be defined as basic.  You would either pick black, chocolate brown, polka dot or yellow to name a few. Swim and resort wear is now pool side savvy and spectacular.

No more boring diva allowed ladies.  Your swim suit should be an extension of your regular wardrobe.  You can take your swim suit to a whole new dimension with style, design and yes a great fit! The fit is the most important aspect of purchasing a swim suit.   Everything from selecting the right cup size (bra sizes available now), to the bottoms that fit and flatter your figure.  If you want to cover up or conceal your “special areas”, you can but most women are finding this a thing of the past.  Raise the tumbler cup and say oh yeah!  Be you, be fabulous.

Spring has arrived! Trend: The Signature Top

Posted on April 1, 2011 in Body Confidence

Cass 1510 (click for details)

Take the limits off your wardrobe this spring by incorporating a sophisticated and sexy camisole top that does more than look good. This season, the focus is on “interesting details” that make an outfit stand out from the crowd. The ruffle is still around and she is not going away. You can go bold or tone it down with a simple fringe detail. The skinny jean and skirts of every length are the rage. All figures and body types are invited to this party. Stretch, control, and shape are now built in to both tops and bottoms.
