Fashion Tips For Full Figured Women and plus size women

2012-06-07T05:46:00.002-07:00

Full figured women is not a sticky dilemma like that of the past.Now many of the women feel proud of being plus size women.The type of color and pattern can also make a difference when it comes to plus size fashion.

Fashion Tips For Full Figured Women and plus size women

1. Don't wear busy prints. We've all heard that advice about how larger women should not wear horizontal stripes, but it goes beyond that. Don't wear loud, crazy patterns (think Hawaiian shirts) that accentuate your size. The goal is to streamline your body. Instead, wear subtle prints. You certainly don't have to be plain, but take a good look in the mirror and be honest with how a print makes you look.

2. Go for solids. A great way to dress slim is to wear all one color. Wear a blue shirt and skirt and then add a pop of color in your accessories.

3. Be careful with textures. Don't wear things that are too ruffly or poufy or lacy or shiny. Again, a lttle goes a long way when it comes to fabrics.

4. Wear larger accessories to balance the outfit and your figure. A thin, little belt with just cut off your waist and make you look big.

5. On the other hand, don't go overboard with accessories. Less is more. This is a good rule for EVERYONE, not just plus sized women.

6.Layer up. A great way to look stylish is to wear layers, combining colors and textures. Put a fitted blazer over a silk blouse or a cute jacket over a T-shirt.

7. Check your arms. Are your arms toned and fit? Do you REALLY look good in a sleeveless or strapless top or dress? A cute shrug or short-sleeved jacket (see layering above) can bring attention away from your arms and flatter your figure.

8. Smile and be confident! Who cares if you're not a Size 2? You're fabulous! Don't be afraid to show off your best self. You'll feel like a million.

Pluz Size Fashion-Styles And Cuts Worth Trying

2012-06-07T05:44:00.001-07:00

When it comes to full figured fashion, there are certain styles that work better than others. You can't simply take more fabric and add it to an outfit. It may fit, as in you can slip it on over your body, but it won't *fit* if it's not cut properly.

Pluz Size Fashion-Styles And Cuts Worth Trying

Unfortunately, a lot of manufacturers don't understand this. I once went shopping at a popular retail store that advertised plus sized clothes. Yes, I could get into everything, but nothing look quite "right." The reason? The outfits were still styled for smaller women.

1. Empire waist: I LOVE empire waist tops and dresses; in fact, my wedding gown had an empire waist and I got so many compliments! Basically, an empire waist cuts off right below the bust line rather than at the center of your body. The idea is that it creates an illusion; your bust is accentuated while the flowy, lower part makes you look long and lean. Don't get me wrong, you can still wear clothing that has a traditional centered waist (if it fits properly), but an empire waist can make you appear taller and slimmer. Also, an empire waisted dress will flow over your curves, bringing them out, but not squeezing around them.

2. Tiered tops and dresses: Another great style for plus size women are tiered tops and dresses. These are outfits that have built-in, flowing layers.Again, this gives an illusion of movement and fluidity.Tiered tops allow you to hide your flaws and still look pretty.

3. Tunics: Tunics are tops that are slightly longer than your average shirt. They end below the waist, sometimes going as low as the tops of your thighs. Again, they elongate the body, making your look slimmer. But notice I said LONG and not BIG. A tunic should still properly fit. You should not be swimming in material.

4. A-Line: A-line styles are similar to an empire waist in that the top or dress gradually flows outward looking like, well, an A. This is yet another cute style to wear that can hide your flaws and "stretch" you out.

Fashion Tips For Full Figured Women/Plus size women

2012-06-07T05:41:00.000-07:00

If you're a plus sized woman like I am, then you know how frustrating it can be to find cute, fashionable plus size clothing that fits and is in style. Most stores don't carry larger sizes and the many that do have plus size outfits that are outdated and unattractive.

Fashion Tips For Full Figured WomenPlus size women

Fortunately, more and more designers are making plus sized outfits that are beautiful, flattering and made of quality materials. There are even some manufacturers likeCatherine's, Jessica London, Torrid, Avenue, Ulla Popken, Catherine's, Lane Bryant and Igigi that exclusively design for full figured women. Imagine that! Someone actually puts us first when it comes to fashion.

So if you wear larger sizes, don't despair, it IS possible to look as elegant and stylish as your less curvy counterparts. But first, here are a few fashion tips for full figured women when it comes to wearing beautiful clothing.

Tips For Wearing Plus Sized Clothing:

1. Probably the most important thing a plus size woman needs to do is get a good, well-fitting bra! Let's face it, if you're wearing larger sizes, you're probably curvy and well... stacked. And you can't have your girls bouncing around all over the place. Moreover, having a bra that fits properly will streamline your curves and your silhouette. You'll not only feel better when you have proper support, but will also fit properly into tops and jackets. You can measure your bust yourself, but I've found that the best way to find a properly fitting bra is to have a professional do it at the store. I've also found it best to buy bras from places that cater to plus-size ladies; even though department stores have bras that go up to very large sizes, I've found that the bras are still a little tight on top. You need a bra that supports your bust AND fits properly around your curves.

2. That said, don't be afraid to get your clothes tailored. This goes for all clothing, not just plus sized, but I've found that plus sizes tend to be made for women who are large and tall. This doesn't help someone like me who is only 5'3". So instead of rolling up your sleeves or pant cuffs, get your clothing tailored. Some places also have "petite plus size" outfits for shorties like me, so that's another option.

3. Don't go too small or tight. Back in college, my typical outfit was a pair of stretch pants and a long sweater -- and you know what? I looked ridiculous. Yes, the pants were comfy, but they just didn't fit properly. I didn't have thin, toned legs and the stretchy pants magnified every curve. There's nothing wrong with having curves, of course, but some styles don't work on some people -- including skinny women -- and in general, skin-tight pants don't accentuate a curvy women's best features. The same goes for short, tight skirts or itty bitty sweaters. Because more stores are offering plus size outfits, some tend to offer outfits that mimic those sold in smaller sizes. BUT we curvy gals tend to be built differently and need to accept that. Rather than squeezing your curves into something that's too small and ill-fitting, find something that's looser and less confining.

3. Don't go too big or loose. On the other hand, don't drown your body in overly-baggy shirts or pants. Be proud of who you are -- don't hide! Many larger women, myself included, make the mistake of wearing long, baggy tops thinking that it makes them look thinner. But it doesn't. It just makes you look larger and even worse, shapeless. You don't have to be a blob. Think of yourself as a curvy goddess.

4. Wear something that's comfortable and well-fitted. The trick to finding the perfect outfit is to wear pieces that are tailored, but aren't cutting off your circulation, either. Pants should accentuate your hips and rear, not be squeezing you so tightly that you have a constant wedgie. Tops should show off your curves, but not be so big that you look as if you're wearing a tent. If you're not sure of your size, try on a few sizes to see which fits best. Even better, get a second opinion from a friend or sales person. I've found that you can usually know from instinct when something fits well. When you look in the mirror and think, "Hey, I didn't know I could look THAT good!" you've found a properly-fitting article of clothing.

Fashion TV-What You Can Learn From Fashion Television

2012-05-19T03:38:00.003-07:00

While I'm not a die-hard fan of any particular fashion TV show, I think there's a lot you can learn from the various shows about fashion as well as those that feature fashion prominently in their story lines. While you may not agree with or like everything you see on them, fashion shows - like cooking shows - help broaden your understanding of the art, which in turn, helps you dress better.

Fashion TV

Here's a rundown of some of the most popular fashion TV shows (check your local listings for time and channel):

Project Runway:

Project Runway is a reality show that pits aspiring fashion designers against other in a series of design challenges. The winner gets $100,000 to launch his first line, and builds name recognition and a following throughout the competition. Design contestants have had to do some crazy things over the years, like make apparel from grocery store items (remember Austin Scarlett's beautiful corn husk dress?), design Wrestlemania costumes, work with couture prom gown clients, create cocktail apparel for their mothers, and more. Throw in a little back-stabbing, snarky comments, and down-to-the-deadline high drama, and it's really easy to get addicted.

What you can learn: design terms, clothing elements, styling tips, and how to work on a budget.

What Not To Wear:

In this recurring pauper-to-princess tale, badly-dressed clients are nominated for makeovers by friends and family. The hosts track down the client in a public place, embarrass the heck out of her, and promise to finance a clothing shopping spree IF she agrees to listen to their fashion advice. If she does, she's given a head-to-toe makeover and then returned home beautifully dressed to the astonishment of those nominating friends and family. While I don't always agree with the clothing advice given to the clients, I do like that they use men and women of all ages, shapes, and sizes to makeover. I also like when the clients realize that they CAN change their life by changing their clothes, because I've seen it with my own clients time and again.

What you can learn: how to dress various body shapes, how to dress for different occasions, and how to gain confidence through appropriate wardrobe choices.

The Rachel Zoe Project:

Rachel Zoe is a celebrity stylist who dresses her famous clients for TV appearances, movie premieres, and red carpet events. While I don't always agree with her choices - and am ASTOUNDED by how many of her clients allow her to dictate their public image by wearing whatever she tells them to* - I can't help but be impressed by how hard this woman works. With her backstage access to designers, models, and celebrities, she knows entire collections, how to put clothing elements together, and perhaps most importantly, how to make high-level contacts and massage delicate egos to get what she wants.

What you can learn: designers, clothing and accessory terms, styling tips, and how to build a million-dollar Rolodex.

*Lana Turner knew exactly how high to cut the slits in her skirts so no cellulite showed. Marlene Dietrich brought her own lighting equipment to movie sets and dictated how she was to be lit. Audrey Hepburn insisted on Givenchy apparel both in films and for personal use, because she felt he alone best understood how to dress her. They would NEVER hand their public image over to someone else to manage.

Sex and the City:

Perhaps the ultimate fashion TV show, "Sex and the City" follows the life of four friends who work, play, and date in New York City. On HBO from 1998-2004 (and currently in edited re-runs elsewhere), the show was groundbreaking for it subject matter, nudity, and fashion. Not only were Carrie Bradshaw's clothes expensive, eclectic, and unlike anything else on TV, this show -- like "The Nanny" - clearly demonstrated just how much our clothes reveal about who we are and where we come from: Carrie, the bohemian writer; Samantha, the creative, hot-shot publicist; Charlotte, the proper WASP princess, and Miranda, the no-nonsense lawyer. Regardless of where they went or what they wore, those personas were almost always reflected in their style of dress.

What you can learn: designers, styling tips, how to dress for different occasions and occupations, how to dress at different levels of society.

Ugly Betty:

"Ugly Betty" follows the life of a sweet, smart, average-size, average-looking assistant from Queens who tries to fit into the reed-thin, high-glamour world of New York fashion. Betty's clothes are appropriate for her position and budget, but they pale in comparison to her high-wattage, fashion-obsessed co-workers. Not surprisingly, the costumer behind "Ugly Betty," Patricia Field, was also the mastermind behind "Sex and the City" and "The Devil Wears Prada," so you see plenty of big designer, high priced clothes.

What you can learn: styling ideas, what to wear at different levels, what NOT to wear.

Mad Men:

Set in New York in the early 1960's, this style-savvy show offers some of the best period costumes on television. Great suits, pretty dresses, and carefully selected hats, gloves, and bags take me back to my childhood when taking pride in your appearance and dressing appropriately for every occasion were as important as working hard and minding your manners. Beautiful clothes, artful grooming, and lovely sets make this show a pleasure to watch.

What you can learn: occasion-appropriate attire, how to accessorize, historical costuming.

Now as I said, I don't always agree with everything on every show, but they're fun to watch if for no other reason than because fashion plays such a dominate roll. You can always find something to take away and use from each program.

Planning to Buy Moda in Pelle Or Gabor Shoes?

2012-05-16T10:05:00.001-07:00

You must have heard this idiom "only the wearer knows where the shoe pinches". This idiom is true and applies to a lot of women. If you do not buy the right shoes, you might regret your purchase. Although women know the general information about shoe purchases, the following tips will help you make better choices:

Moda in Pelle Or Gabor Shoes

1. Quality material - A shoe is made up of many parts such as the sole, padding, leather fabric, buttons, laces etc. If the quality of the parts is poor, it most likely will fall apart soon. Shoes of good quality are made of good quality leather, solid soles and are lighter in comparison to cheap ones.

2. Right Size- buying the right shoe size means you can comfortably wear your shoes. If they fit when you try them on whilst sitting down does not mean the shoes are the right size for you. You should always try on shoes and walk in them before you buy them. Apart from size, you may also encounter problems because of the different measuring standards used all over the world. European, American and Asian measurements are different so you need to find the right size for yourself.

3. Toe size - You might see some trendy and modern shoes you would love to buy, but if they hurt your feet, do not buy them. Fashion at the cost of injury to your feet is not worth it. You should always buy the right shoe size in which your toes feel comfortable and fit like a glove.

4. Your pocket - If you cannot afford expensive shoes, then you should choose the less expensive ones. Some cheaper models are more popular than expensive ones and look just as nice. Shoe manufacturers keep in mind the needs of customers from all income groups and make shoes available for all accordingly.

5. Shoes that pinch - Many women choose fashion over comfort. It is highly recommended that you purchase shoes that are both trendy and comfortable. If your shoes pinch when you try them on, do not buy them as they will pinch in future and you will not enjoy them.

6. Online Shopping - There are a lot of websites that offer online shopping facility. Purchasing online is cheaper, convenient and saves time as you do not have to visit shoe shops around the city. The online stores also offer huge discounts due to the high number of competitors online.

7. High heels - Women are generally shorter than men and in order to balance their height, they wear high heeled shoes. You should choose high heeled shoes in accordance with your height and weight. High heeled shoes are not recommended for obese women as they can lose their balance whilst walking. There are a lot of regular shoes that are trendy in the market. These include brands like Gabor Shoes, Moda in Pelle shoes, UGG Australia etc. They all have a wide range of high and low heeled shoes.

8. Soles - Soles are probably the most important part of any shoe, whether for men or women. Soles must be flexible and sturdy to prevent the wearer from wobbling whilst walking.

You can also seek advice from others but it is advisable that you follow your instinct. Sometimes other people's recommendation might confuse you and you end up with the wrong shoes. Make the right choice and choose the right shoes.

Buying the Right Kind of Moda in Pelle Shoes

2012-05-16T10:03:00.001-07:00

There are thousands of different types of shoes out there in the market. So, if you are looking for only one pair, it is going to be a bit difficult. However, the best way to go for it is to consider what exactly you want. Once you consider your criteria, you are likely to reduce the number of options and eventually, you will be able to pick up the shoe that is most useful for you.

Moda

Thousands of brands are there to produce shoes. All of them have their own distinct features. So, before making choice, it is important that you gather some information about the products that they manufacture. At the same time, you should be cautious about the style that you are looking for and whether that will complement your physique. For example, if you are obese, it is wise not to choose the high heeled shoes. For, that can affect your balance while walking. Obviously, there are hundreds of different styles available that are equally attractive if not more.

However, while purchasing the shoes, the quality is one factor that you need to check out. There are different parts of the shoe and you have to make sure that each of these parts has received enough attention from the manufacturer of the shoe. However, the sole is certainly, the most important among them. It has to be flexible and durable. It should also provide very firm grip when you are walking.

When it comes to buying shoes, you will receive a lot of advices. But, more often than not, they are confusing. So, it is better to listen to your own heart rather than to follow others'.

However, if you are looking to buy the most stylish shoes, the moda in pelle shoes are certainly the best. They have been manufacturing some of the most stylish shoes for quite a while now. They have a very sleek and stylish design that have put them in the trend right way. No wonder therefore, that the fashion conscious women are rushing to buy a pair of moda in pelle shoes. Their shoes have a unique and bold appeal that makes them so special to the wearer. The exquisite feminine touch of the shoes is also something that is not quite common.

Well, there are plenty of other reasons why you should be looking for a brand like moda in pelle. First of all, they have the heritage of producing top quality products for almost four decades. Launched at Leeds in the year 1970, the company has now overwhelmed the entire United Kingdom with its dazzling designs and unbelievable quality.

2012-05-05T11:55:00.001-07:00

Here are some tips that I want to pass along about fashion since I am still living free and still going through menopause. It has been touch and go at times. My inner voice says the most bizarre things but I know it is the menopausal estrogen deprived voice and I do not listen to it. I won't even say that I would kill for a little estrogen. I know it is only the menopause talking.

How to Survive Menopause With 10 Fashion Tips

1. Wear layers that you can peel off. This means a tank top or T-shirt, preferably wicking as your first layer. Second layer is a sweater or blazer or blouse. Do not peel off past the first layer!

2. Do not wear a crop top, belly shirt, tube top, a sheer blouse, or a sheer blouse over a tube top, or just your bra no matter how hot you are and think you can pull it off. You can not. Are you listening Trudie Styler?

3. Wear slacks with-out stockings. Loose fitting slacks or skirts that are not lined. Wear a skirt with-out stockings, tights or leggings unless it is winter and you are outside.

4. Do not wear a mini skirt (with-out tights or leggings) a kilt, a short dress or short shorts. Even if you think you have Rockette legs it is the menopause evil inner voice talking, do not listen. Remember do not forgo the panties.

5. Wear open toe shoes or peek-a-boo toes with-out stockings or socks for extra ventilation, year round. It may get chilly and damp but it will keep you cool so who cares.

6. Don't wear hats. Hats keep in the heat, great in the winter but not for those having personal summers.

7. Wear your hair pulled up at the neckline. If you wear a short hairstyle keep it light at the nape of neck. If you wear a bob keep it over the nape of the neck. These precautions are for the sweaty neck and look of wet hair. No one wants to hear the question, "Did you just come from the shower?"

8. Do not wear Spanx or any other control foundation unless you are going to a party. Be sure to put on your make-up after you put on the Spanx. Plan on not going to the bathroom during the party because then you will have to yank them up and it will put you into a flash and there goes the make-up and hairdo!

9. Wear bright polish on your fingers and toes. They are the only things that won't sweat off during a flash. All make-up must be water resistant and extra long lasting. This doesn't mean that you won't have to re-apply foundation, eye liner, eye-shadow, mascara, blush, and lipstick, only that it may not end up running all the way down your face after a few flashes.

10. Clean and put away your turtle necks, mock turtle necks and long woolen sleeved sweaters for a few years as you experience the long hot summers of year round menopause. Keep an extra top, bra, panties and slacks in your car, office, or briefcase, just in case these tips do not work-out.

If you follow my tips and do not listen to the evil menopause inner voice regarding fashion you will be safe from jail and life as a felon. No one will arrest you for indecent exposure. You won't humiliate your children or spouse or co-workers with a fashion faux pas. More importantly you will not humiliate yourself!

Fashion Tips: How To Dress On A First Date. A first date is one of the most crucial moments. This is the time where potential couples get to know each other and that's the reason why we should make a good impression. Looking good and feeling great are one of the most basic essentials especially when you are on a date. And so, without further ado, here are some important tips that will help you know how to dress on a first date.

How To Dress On A First Date

HOW TO DRESS ON A FIRST DATE:

1. Determine Your Partner's Style

It is a must that you should know your partner's style so that you can determine what kind of outfit you need to use. You should also take note of the venue where your date is going to be held. Is it in a bowling alley? Is it in a fancy restaurant? Is your date the rocker type or the athletic type? Is he the laid back kind or a stylish fashionista? Try to think of these things first.

2. Comfort Is Key

You've finally spotted that oh-so gorgeous dress and the killer heels that go perfectly well with it. However, these outfits become a pain in the butt because the dress is too tight and the heels are literally killing your feet. In order to prevent this unwanted discomfort from ruining your date, try to wear a dress that will make you feel gorgeous. Wear a pair of shoes that will give you the utmost comfort.

3. Wear Something That Is Flattering

Choosing the right outfit can be a bit tricky. You would want to wear something that is sexy but tasteful at the same time. A little black dress is always one of the most popular go-to outfits on a first date, because it's just oh-so simple yet elegant. Try to choose a dress that can work well with your body type so that it will be very flattering for you.

4. Consider the Environment

If your date has asked you to go on a movie date or a date at the beach, then you can choose an outfit that is appropriate. Try wearing a flowy summer dress on a date at the beach or wear a back baring ensemble if you are at a cocktail party. A back baring dress gives a hint of sexiness and surprise.

Dressing during a first date can be a little bit daunting. However, once you find out your date's style preferences and having a good look at the proposed venue, you will definitely not have a hard time looking for that perfect outfit. Remember that comfort is key and you should always enjoy the moment.

5 Fashion Tips For Plus Size Women

2012-05-05T11:39:00.001-07:00

While I am not a fashion icon, I do have a sense of style. Even if I did not have a sense, of style, I still have an opinion. I know that as plus size women, you may already be insecure about your weight. The key is to make clothing choices that will make you look good. If you are already insecure, the last thing you want to do is where clothing that will create unwanted or unflattering attention. I have created a list fashion tips that will help you look good will you work to reach your goal weight.

5 Fashion Tips For Plus Size Women

Tip No 1. Wear The Right Bra
If you top heavy, please be sure to where the right bra. It should be one that will lift and give your breast a natural round shape. This can usually be accomplished with an underwire bra. It is extremely important that you buy the right size to ensure a comfortable fit and to avoid bulging. Buying a good quality bra is also important. Try the bra on before your purchase it to make sure it will give your the desired look.

Tip No 2. Select Long (length) Shirts
This is a popular fashion faux pas for plus size women. While finding a shirt in the right size may be difficult at times, that is not an excuse to buy a shirt that is too short. For some odd reason, some women will buy a shirt that barely hangs below waist level. As a result, when she raises her arms or bends over, her flesh is exposed. I am sure these women do not want to show off their love handles. The avoid this issue, buy longer shirts. The length of your shirt should at least come to the middle of your hips. This will give your several extra inches to work with. It also allows you to move without the fear of exposing your flesh to a group of gawking onlookers.

Tip No 3. Avoid Low Riders
For years, we have seen pot belly men walking around with their pants snuggly buckled below their bulging belly. Over the past few years, we have seen a similar phenomena occur with women. Mostly due, in part to the popularity of low riding pants. While the style looks great when you have the waist line for it, it less flattening when you have the "muffin top" effect. Buy pants that will fasten around your waist at the belly button level. Yes, that may mean buying a bigger size, but the you will look better and the fit is probably more comfortable.

Tip No 4. Avoid Extra Tight Clothes
I know that it is hard for some of us to admit that we have gained a little weight. We still hang on to the idea of wearing tight clothes that shows off our figures. The problem is that every shape is not flattering. Some curves are just in the wrong places and honestly are not deserving of the spotlight. Showing every lump and bump of your figure leaves very little to the imagination. Avoid these "TMI" moments by buying looser fitting clothes, that will complement your figure.

Tip No 5. Highlight Your Best Features
We have all heard the phrase "focus on the positive". Well the same idea works with our choice of clothing. Highlight your best assets, instead of bringing atttention to your less flattering features. If your arms are your best features, don't be afraid to show them. Find the clothes, colors and accessories that complement you. Take pride in yourself and how your present yourself to the world. When you do this, you overall appearance is improved. You will feel more confident and it will show.

Modelling is one of those professions where things aren't exactly textbook. You don't attend a University or TAFE to be 'qualified as a model', and although there are hundreds of modelling courses out there none of them guarantee work as a model in the way that say, a motor mechanics apprenticeship would.

Union for Models

Anyone can become a model, and modelling can be done in any way! So how is such a creative and ever evolving industry measured or monitored? Are there standards model industry professionals are required to adhere to? Is there any way models can find out their rights and regulations?

Yes. There is a union for models known as 'The Guild', the Mannequins and Models Division of the Shop, Distributive and Allied Employees Association.

Formerly knows as the Mannequins Association of Victoria, the association was created to provide recognition for the modelling profession, to improve working conditions, stimulate employment and oversee qualifications. It was registered as a union in 1960 and became the Mannequins and Models Guild of Australia. In 1972, the union changed its name to the Shop, Distributive and Allied Employees Association.

A career as a fashion model can be exciting. It is a lucrative industry but there are many pitfalls for aspiring models. Whether you are a newcomer to the industry or an experienced professional, it is important to be on the lookout for fair pay and working conditions, and to be careful not to be exploited.

The SDA can assist with advice on how to start your career, where to go for training and referral to suitable agencies.

The union provides standards of pay, hours, leave, superannuation and working conditions for the industries above. For models this means that employers (model agencies, photographers, other clients who may hire you) are required by law to adhere to the regulations of the Mannequins and Models Award (see below).

Mannequins and Models Award

The online document for this award is long and extensive so we've pinpointed the relevant points you need to know for modelling. You can read the full document here.

If you're a freelance model these regulations become more of an agreement between you and the person is hiring you, however you still have the same rights to be treated fairly and paid accordingly as an agency signed model. You will need to assess the points noted here and decide which you will adopt as your modelling procedures- get these clear and consistent for each client and you'll not only know what to expect from each job, but you'll come across as professional and serious about your work!

Union Jack - A Fashion Icon

2012-05-04T07:40:00.002-07:00

The Union Jack has been around for over 600 years but until recently was never considered more than just a flag. However, since the 1960s it has stopped being just a flag and has become a fashion icon as well.

Union Jack - A Fashion Icon

Since the music movement known as the British Invasion came over to the United States with mega-groups such as The Who promoting the use of the Union Jack through their own logos and outfits the Union Jack has been a sought after fashion symbol.

The flag was created to celebrate the union between England and Scotland under James I of England who was King of Scotland until he inherited the throne of England as well. The flag was originally only supposed to be flown on ships of the Royal Navy. However, as time went on the flag became a mark of the British nation as well as just the Royal Navy, although to this day the Merchant Navy still flies a different flag which is known as an ensign!

Today the inimitable shape can be found all over the place with designers from all over the place using the shape and colors of the Union Jack because of their versatility. It makes such a great fabric because even after the flag has been switched around, cut into pieces and put back together in the shape of a jacket it is still recognizable.

The trend has become so strong that the Union Jack can now be seen all over British high streets with everyone from major department stores to small chains having their own brand of merchandise featuring the flag. While clothes are still the most popular item there are still a huge number of other items that feature the red white and blue with everything from tea sets and pillows to blankets and cuff links featuring the design.

A quick search around Amazon revels just how popular the humble flag as become. As of November 2010 the search pulls almost 2,200 results for different items featuring the British Flag. Much of this popularity can be attributed to the very recognizable pattern which allows designers to mould the flag into almost any shape they want without the pattern, styling, significance or history disappearing.

Despite that the Union Jack coming to represent soccer hooliganism, the British National Party and other less-than-desirable elements of British society, it still has an undeniable place as a fashion icon, particularly among those foreigners who have no idea of the negative connotation that the flag can hold.

Buying Plus Size Dresses - No Need to Be Embarrassed or hesitated

2012-04-28T11:25:00.000-07:00

I don't know about you, but I find clothes shopping a chore. The crowds, the small dressing rooms, the less than helpful sales associates all make the task of finding a dress for that special night on the town just that much harder. Throw in being over a size two and that task can seem impossible.

Buying Plus Size Dresses - No Need to Be Embarrassed or hesitated

Let's face it, living large in a small world can make each day a bit of a trial. The looks, the whispers, the laughter can make a person just want to stay home. Well I say, to heck with them! It's time to come out of the closet and hit the town. Finding something to wear for the that special night, special occasion, or just a night out with the girls.

We all want to look our best and formal wear can bring out the best or the worst in us. There are some things you want to remember when buying that special dress:

Flaunt what you've got.
Hide what you don't.
Decide which part of your body you want to show off to the best advantage.
Don't be afraid of color.
Have fun!

Regardless of your size or shape everyone, and I mean everyone, has good features - parts of their selves that they like and want to show off. Maybe you have a nice bust line. If so, consider a deep v-neck. Maybe you have killer legs. A slit up the side of a long skirt can do wonders. Heck maybe you have a nice bust line and nice legs - show them both off and turn up the heat with a wow factor.

We're also going to have a part of our body that we want to cover up or move the eyes away from. If your tummy is a bit round select a dress with a little spandex in the waist area to help. Legs not what they could be? Keep their eyes above the waist with a sweetheart neckline and a bit of cleavage.

Too many woman with a few extra pounds fear color. While a little black dress can be a girl's best friend, color brings passion and excitement to your life. Stop hiding and show yourself off. Sizzle in red, pop in pink, or be gorgeous in green. Make heads turn and leave the dark shadows behind.

What it all comes down to, is forget what others might think. Honestly most of them are too busy thinking about themselves to give you much thought one way or the other. So...have fun...live your life...find yourself the perfect little cocktail dress and paint the town whatever color you choose.

Plus Size Cocktail Dresses-How to Choose Perfect Plus Size Cocktail Dresses for party

2012-04-28T11:14:00.002-07:00

Plus size cocktail dresses are great for a night out. They're flirty and fun, without being too dressed up and formal. For full-figured women, choosing plus size dresses with a strategic cut is important. When your best assets are your curves, there's no reason to hide um.

Plus Size Cocktail Dresses

It's all a matter of de-emphasizing certain parts of your body you don't want to draw attention to. This can be done by choosing plus size cocktail dresses with the right cut and fit.

The cut needs to be something that emphasizes and defines, so if you have a naturally large bust, wearing a low cut top would be overkill. Drawing attention to a naturally attention-grabbing body part will only work to your disadvantage. Opt for something with more coverage. For large-breasted women, plus size cocktail dresses with an empire waist works best, as it defines your waist. This cut also works well with those who have broader hips, as it helps draw attention away from that area. Empire waist plus size dresses usually have a flowing skirt.

Choose plus size cocktail dresses with a ¾ length sleeve to hide flabby arms
