“Tis the Season!”…that’s right, the holidays are right around the corner and with that in mind, it’s time to look in to your closet and see what’s missing…that perfect holiday dress! Whether it’s a cocktail party, special event or you’re just home for the holidays, there is never a better time than now to find that special something.  You can always try to find the latest style “lil black dress” that you can’t do without, or maybe you’re looking to make a splash with a flash of color. When you’re hosting at home, think comfort first. When your guests see that you are at ease, they will feel relaxed too. Being comfortable, yet sexy and glamorous, at an affordable price and still being able to turn heads as you make your entrance wearing the latest holiday fashion will get you through the entire season. Now that you’ve planned the menu, the guest list and the decorations, it’s time for you!

But do you have any idea what to wear? Ever wonder what your perfect dress would be for that ‘I feel amazing look’?  Not all dresses go with all body types, and let’s face it, we are not all stick thin models. Real women need real options. You should always look at the dress individually first and really think about your body type and how it would fit you.  There are so many different body types out there so it really depends on yours.

If you’re all toned going to the gym everyday, why not wear something that shows off all that hard work? You’ve got it, show it! Wear a piece that fits your body, maybe with an open back or  a deep V in the front depending on your bust size. A bigger bust, a smaller V, a smaller bust, a deeper V. For a woman with a softer looking figure, wear something that you are comfortable in. You can still wear form fitting dresses, and you should. Depending on how your exact body type is, you should pick something that is fitted rather than not. If it is not fitted then it might make you look larger than you actually are. Be careful in choosing your dress that it is longer than it is wide, this will help elongate your look giving a more slimming appearance.

If you’re a full figured female with curves, don’t be afraid to show them! Everyone has a problem area that they focus on, not necessarily something that others see, but rather something that you focus on. As a rule whatever you pick, you should feel comfortable in. If you are not comfortable, it will show. Pick something that accentuates your attributes, and that flows away from the body and has movement. This will allow you to feel comfortable and look fabulous at the same time. It helps to decide early so that your outfit is the last thing on your mind the day of the holiday celebration. Remember you don’t have to spend hundreds of dollars to look and feel fabulous!
