Red is synonymous with passion and seductiveness. It’s one of the most flirtatious, attention-grabbing and interesting colors. It can look elegant and classic, luxurious and chic, but also a little tricky and dangerous. Both men and women love this color, yet most of them feel a little scary wearing red clothes, as red flatters not everyone. Being quite a capricious and dangerous color, red requires certain style knowledge for pulling it off right.

So, why is red so terrifying? First of all, you become a magnet for attention wearing red, so you have to make sure you look 100% perfect. The second reason of avoiding red is that this flashy hue accentuates any skin imperfections, like a pimple, a fake tan or a scar. Last but not least, the wrong shade of red can make you look sick. It becomes clear that red is not easy to pull off. However with these easy style tips, you’ll finally reveal it to yourself how to wear red and look great.

How to Wear Red

The most important step in looking great in red is to find your shade of red. It should add some warmth to your look and should be in complete harmony with your skin tone, eye color and hair. It’s wise to experiment with various shades of red and stick to the one, which makes you feel and look powerful and sexy. Here are a few tips about how to choose your shade of red:

• If you have light blonde hair and pale blue, green or gray eyes, go for pale red tones with a blue undertone. You should avoid any orangey shades.

• Women with black or dark brown hair, dark eyes and olive or dark complexion are advised to choose dark and strong shades of red with a blue undertone. They should avoid orangey tones.

• Redhead ladies with golden skin tone and eyes of any color will look amazing in orangey reds. They should stay away from blue-based reds though.

• Ash blond and grey-haired women should opt for purple-reds and blue-based red tones. Orangey reds aren’t for them though.

• If you have dark brown or black hair and blue, green or gray eyes, you will look terrific in the brightest red tone.

• Those with dark blonde or brown hair and soft-colored eyes are advised to pick soft and muted reds.

What to Wear Red With

Once you have picked the best shade of red for you, you should know how to pull it off. Red is for confident fashionisers, who always need extra attention. If you aren’t this type of woman, you can opt for red accessories, such as red shoes, a belt in red, a hat, gloves, a handbag, a scarf or some jewelry in this passionate color. Red lipstick or red nail polish can also be great accessories for your neutral toned outfits.

For better imagination on how to pull off red clothes, take a look at these great tips:

• Red and white, as well as red and black are some of the most classic color combinations, which always look great. However, you can never surprise anybody opting for these combinations. A better idea is to mix all the three and look chic and unique.

• To get an interesting result, play with various shades of red. For instance, match tomato red with hot fuchsia, pale red with deep violet, coral with light rosy, etc.

• Step out of boxes and go for bolder combinations, such as red and blue, red and beige, or red with green shadows.

• Red printed pieces also look fantastic. Moreover, they aren’t that attention-grabbing and aggressive. Think a red polka-dotted or striped blouse or a sexy red floral-printed skirt to play it safe.

Where to Wear Red

Red is an amazing color, yet you should know where to wear it. It’s perfect for a night out, for a date (not for the first one though!), for a walk with friends. However, be careful when wearing red to work. Play it safe by opting for a red scarf or belt, if you find your office look too boring. A red blazer or pencil skirt will look fabulous too, but make sure to go for subdued reds, rather than eye-popping deep tones.

Despite its complicated and whimsical character, red is a powerful color that gives a wearer a certain feeling of freedom, confidence and sex appeal. As you see, pulling off this daring hue isn’t that difficult and you haven’t been right excluding it from your wardrobe. It’s time to go bold and trendy, it’s time for hot red now!

If your wardrobe is stacked with clothing, yet you stand in front of it for hours and feel like you have nothing to wear, it’s just the right time to start rebuilding it. You might think building a functional and fashionable wardrobe is something complicated and it requires an entire fortune and lots of time. Well, actually it is not so! Moreover, it can be a pleasant and interesting process, as nowadays the fashion industry offers a myriad of amazing style choices for every taste and budget. You should simply get oriented in your style and understand in which you look at your best. Skim through the following useful fashion tips on how to build functional and fashion-forward wardrobe and have fun with your styling!

Clear Out Your Closet

The first step in creating a functional and fashionable wardrobe is to clear out your closet. Keeping things that you don’t wear will not make your wardrobe richer and more varied. Get rid of old-fashioned, ill-fitting and worn-out clothes, as well as those in which you don’t feel comfortable and confident. Throw away torn and stretched-out pieces, as well as garments with irremovable stains.

Focus on Basics

Wardrobe basics are essential. They are those items, which you wear more often and which can be easily mixed and matched with other pieces in your closet. Wardrobe essentials include a little black dress, a pair of jeans, a white shirt, a pencil skirt, a pair of stylish trousers, classic pumps in black, brown or beige color, comfy flats, a cardigan, a coat or a leather jacket, a stylish and functional bag, a simple scarf and some versatile jewelry.

Think Neutral colors

Although bright colors and eye-popping prints may be the easiest way of attracting attention, they aren’t always on trend. Moreover, it’s important to focus on neutrals first if you want to create a functional wardrobe. These colors are timeless and can be easily mixed and matched both with brights and neutrals. Think black, white, brown, grey, camel, navy and cream.

Rely on Layering

Layering is great, as with this simple trick you can easily create various looks, from smart to casual, from day to night and form cold weather appropriate to warm one. This requires a little styling knowledge for the best results. For instance, match your dress with a sweater or a blazer, wear a tank under a t-shirt, a shirt with a fancy collar vest, etc.

Pay Attention to Trends

Although basics are essential for creating a functional wardrobe, it’s also important to pay attention to trends in order to look fashion-forward. Yes, trends come and go very quickly and it’s difficult to catch up with them. However, adding a couple of on-trend pieces will make you look fresh and updated.

Pay Attention to the Fit

No matter how voguish and beautiful your clothes are, you’ll not look great in them if they don’t fit you. It’s an unbreakable rule. Make sure that every item you buy is your size and flatters your shape.

Get Pieces for Different Occasions

A functional and fashion-forward wardrobe shouldn’t be composed of only jeans and t-shirts. It’s important to have something proper for every event you have to visit. It’s wise to own some formal attire, dress attire, casual attire and work attire.

Consider Your Lifestyle

It’s important to consider your lifestyle, while buying new things. Focus on pieces that will make you feel confident and comfortable in situation you get daily. For instance, if you work outdoors and walk a lot, towering high heels and an elegant pencil skirt might not work for you, though they are just the thing for someone else with a desk job.

Accentuate Your Personality

It’s a well-known fact that people judge someone by her outfits first. So no matter how strict dress code at your work is, you should spice things up with a touch of attitude and go for details that highlight your personality. Don’t copy others and try to look unique, relying on your own interests and taste. Try to avoid the same looks and experiment with your styling.

Last but not least, always have fun with your styling. After all, fashion is fun and creativity is always welcomed. Dressing is fun as far as you have a functional and fashionable wardrobe. Just mix and match your favorite items, add color, accessorize and enjoy the process!

Men don’t find it sexy and attractive and this is considered not to make you look thin. It’s a bit costumery, a detail that was hugely criticized in the past for being difficult to pull off, yet one thing is sure – peplums are fun, jolly and unique. And they are most certainly not a look that only slim girls can wear.

The peplum has come back to fashion with a modern twist and looks much simpler and more interesting now. It comes in various forms, both bolder and more demure shapes and is no longer considered to be a detail to be scared of. They appear on elegant dresses and jackets, skirts and tops, blouses and pants, shorts and even jumpsuits. And thanks to so many variations, there are numerous ways to wear them. However, if you want to look at your best in peplum, make sure to read through these amazing style tips on how to wear peplum.

Start with shapewear and cinch

Peplum is amazing for creating a sexy hour-glass figure and if you want that glass to be flawless and flare out only where the shirt does, make sure to wear a high-waisted panty or one-piece slimmer. If that doesn’t help you much, you can always cinch the waist with a belt. If you are more self-conscious about your middle, you can use a skinny belt, and, on the contrary, if you feel you want to hide that part, a wide belt can always cover anything you don’t want to be much visible.

Keep it simple

Peplum is already an exaggerated detail, so try to keep things as simple as possible for the best results. Avoiding bold, eye-catching colors and prints is definitely a great trick. Certainly you can wear vibrant peplum, if you feel much self-confident. Besides, patterned and colorful peplum matched with a dark skirt or dark pants can make your body look smaller. And if you want to create the illusion of a slimmer upper body, go for a bottom featuring colored or patterned peplum. Also try to avoid designs with extra-large poofs on the area of the hips. Think more structured tops and dresses that don’t add a huge boxy layer around the hips.

What to wear with peplum

To make sure your figure looks ideal in peplum, it’s important to know with what item you are wearing it. The vintage trend is to wear peplum with a pencil skirt, as this way you’ll accentuate the overall silhouette. However, keep in mind that pencil skirts tend to shorten the legs, so this look is more appropriate for taller girls. And if you are shorter or curvier, a pair of skinnies worn with peplum is the best fit for you. This modern way of wearing the peplum streamlines the lower body and makes it look slimmer. You can even try wide-leg pants.

How to accessorize when rocking the peplum

Since peplum tends to make one look shorter and curvier, it’s advised to wear high heel shoes or platforms with it. Other than that, it’s advised to keep your accessories to a minimum. You can play with waist belts to create the effect you want to.

A few more things to consider when choosing a piece with a trendy peplum

Peplums can have both sliming and voluminous effects. To know how to cover your flaws and accentuate your best assets, it’s important to know these style tips and tricks:

• To accentuate your waist, go for a peplum on a jacket that is short and cute and that ends right above your hips. Use a belt.

• To add volume to the hips, think a skirt or a dress with puffy and fancy peplum that ends in the mid-section of your hips.

• To make the hips look narrower, try to find a sleek peplum with no volume. It should end after the widest part of your hips.

• To make your large bust look smaller, wear a skirt with darker color on peplum and a lighter color underneath.

• To get a slimming effect, opt for a total black outfit with a peplum.

• To balance your body proportions right, avoid A-line skirts with peplums. Only pencil skirts will be the trick.

• To make sure you don’t look short in the peplum, avoid long skirts or dresses with this detail. The hem of your skirt or dress should hit above the knee and just below it.

With these amazing peplum style tips, every girl is sure to look mesmerizing and sexy in clothes featuring peplums and prove men that peplums are actually stylish and attractive.

Sunglasses have become a must accessory for all those, who not only want to protect their eyes from harmful UV rays, but also want to show off their glamorous and seductive side. A real fashioniser should have at least one pair of stylish sunglasses that can be worn while on the beach, at the street or during a cool party. We all know that the hunt for the perfect pair of sunnies is an ongoing battle, thanks to the ever changing trends, your likings, and, most importantly, your face shape. Actually besides the design, various charming embellishments and colors, you should also pay attention to the frames of the sunglasses you are going to buy and pick the ones that will enhance your facial features rather than make you look unflattering and even ridiculous.

With so many amazing eyewear styles and trends available nowadays, there is the perfect pair of sunglasses for any face shape. Thus, to look at the best behind your sunnies, make sure to pay particular attention to your face shape, study it and be always right in your choices. To never be mistaken while picking eyewear for you, read these useful style tips on how to choose sunglasses for your face shape.

Sunglasses for Round Faces

Girls with round faces seem to live on either end of the sunglasses spectrum – they either look gorgeous or ridiculous, like an early 2000s sunglasses bug. With the widest part of the mug being the cheeks and the length from forehead to chin almost equal in width, round faces have no angles.

To give some length to your round face and make it look thinner, opt for sunglasses with an asymmetric top or bottom or rectangular sunglasses. However, keep in mind that extreme geometrics, like a mega-square or Lennon glasses look super jarring. Sunglasses with a flat bridge look fun. Also make sure to contrast angles with rounder edges.

Sunglasses for Heart-Shaped Face

Girls born with a heart-shaped face have a narrow chin and high cheekbones (like Reese Witherspoon). If you belong to this category of girls, try to avoid any heavy frames or overly geometric lines.

The perfect sunnies for heart-shaped ladies come with cat-eye frames, oval or rimless frames. Try to pick glasses that are wider at the top and narrower at the bottom. Sunglasses that feature some detailing or distinctive features, such as brow lines will also look amazing on heart-shaped faces.

Sunglasses for Oval Faces

Girls with oval faces are the luckiest ones. They can actually try any pair of glasses, as the trademark of an oval face is near-symmetry (like Megan Fox). While oval-faced girls can experiment with various eyewear styles, they look at the best in oversized glasses with a swooped bridge.

Round and a gently arced bridge, as well as rectangular lenses also look amazing on the oval face shape. You can also try rimless glasses and ones with thinner, more delicate frames. However, try to avoid straight lines, like those found on aviator sunglasses.

Sunglasses for Oblong Faces

Girls with oblong or rectangular-shaped faces struggle really hard to find the perfect pair of glasses. This face is long with long straight cheekbones (like Rihanna or Liv Tyler). In this case, you should add volume to your face, not length. Like oval faces, oblong faces too look at the best in larger glasses, but unlike those with super symmetric faces, oblong-faced girls should look for softer, less dramatically dipped bridges.

Round-rimmed glasses also look fine for oblong faces. Keep your glasses perched on the apple of the cheek, otherwise your face may dwarf the frames.

Sunglasses for Square Faces

A square face is characterized by a strong jaw and a squared-off hairline (like Jessica Simpson). If you have a square face shape, choose glasses that are higher at the top than at the bridge of the nose. Keep in mind that smaller frames can make your head look long.

While these were the basic face shapes, there are also people, who have the combination of shapes and angles. Therefore, try various sunglasses shapes in order to determine which type fits your face shape.

Other Style Tips for Choosing Sunglasses

Although we all need a pair of neutral sunnies, like black or brown, the latest eyewear trends bring brightly colored frames too, such as amber yellow, hot reds, cobalt blue or oranges.

Before going for a colored frame, decide whether you want them to match or contrast your outfits. If you aren’t that much into dark or mirror lenses, consider what works best for your hair, eye color or which frame complements your skin tone. For example, thick black frames tend to make a sallow skin appear even pastier, while metallic can brighten up the face. Girls with bronze or olive skin tone look good in brown, khaki, green, peach, cream and gold eyewear. Silver, as well as black, blue, red, plum, gray, amber and tortoiseshell sunglasses work well for cooler complexions.

Other than the styles and colors of the sunglasses, pay attention that they provide 100% UVA and UVB protection and filter at least some blue light. Choose lightweight, plastic, shatterproof sunglasses, if you are going to wear them while playing sports. And finally, for extra eye protection, make sure to wear a hat with at least 3-inch brim while in the sun.

The world isn’t actually that colorful and ideal as it may seem to some of you. Although we do see mostly perfectly sculpted silhouettes during fashion weeks, in various fashion campaign and lookbooks, there are certainly plump girls, who quite often feel very insecure about their bodies and prefer to stay away from summer beach and pool activities. However, if they know the best plus size fashion tips and the style secrets of choosing the most flattering swimsuits for their body shapes, they will not have the slightest reason of worrying about an unflattering look at the beach, as any body shape can look gorgeous, when dressed with consideration of its best assets and flaws.

If several years ago plus size swimsuits weren’t so diverse and fashionable, mainly made of bad-quality fabrics and in unpleasant colors and designs, now everything has changed and we can see amazing swimwear designs in bigger sizes that look both fashionable and sexy. The only thing you should know is how to choose the best plus-size swimwear for your body shape and few more rules for making it look lovely and voguish.

Before starting a new shopping session, examine your body closely to see exactly what areas can be highlighted and which ones need to be concealed. Stand in front of the mirror and try to be honest to yourself for the best results. Keep in mind that everyone has flaws, and we also have areas worth showing.

Once you already know your body language, it’s time to find the best swimsuit for you. Look through all the options available and pick the ones you like the most. Don’t restrict yourself in colors. Although we all know that black is the best option if you want to create the illusion of a slimmer body, there are certainly colors, which can have even better slimming effects. These are blue, navy, violet and dark brown. You can also pick a swimwear that combines several hues, as well as ones featuring stripes, floral and kaleidoscopic prints. Make sure to get the item that has bright tones at the places you want to emphasize and darker ones where your problem areas are.

When it comes to choosing the best plus size swimwear style, remember that tankinis, skirtinies, shortinies and one-piece swimsuits are the best options to try. For you to know, tankini consists of a tank top and a standard bikini bottom. Skirtini features a piece of fabric, which resembles a short skirt. Shortini is like the tankini, only instead of a bikini bottom it features shorts. All these styles, including the one-piece swimsuits, look sexy and stylish, if they fit your body shape.

Finally it’s important to know all the tips and tricks for camouflaging certain areas and enhancing your best features.

• To put the accent on your waistline and conceal the big belly, go for a belted swimsuit, one with vertical stripes or any other design gathering around the belly. A one-piece swimsuit with a tummy control panel will also be the right trick.

• If you have a bigger bust, think beachwear with wide straps and adequate underwire or a halter top. V-neck or other deep neckline cuts can make your big bust look smaller.

• A swimsuit featuring a lighter color in the top than the bottom will be ideal for those, who have a small breast and want to create the illusion of a bigger one. Ruching or frills will also be great.

• To shift the attention from a big rear, opt for a skirted bottom.

• Women with broad shoulders are advised to pick a swimsuit with patterns on the bottom part.

• To make your short legs look taller, go for a swimsuit that is high cut to the thigh.

A piece of precious advice for plus size women: never underestimate your beauty, take care of yourself and try to always feel and look self-confident and stylish, and this way you’ll look more gorgeous than many skinny girls.

If you want to accentuate your beautiful legs, choose a miniskirt. If you are too skinny and want to get the illusion of a fuller look, go for an asymmetrical skirt with ruffles. And, on the contrary, if you are a little plump, think a skirt with the shorter hem going as high as the mid part of your legs.

• Think of how frequently you are going to wear your skirt. If you want to wear it daily, pay attention to the fabric of the skirt. Think simple, machine washable and easy to care fabrics rather than a delicate one that you’ll have to wear on special occasions only.

• Pay attention to the color of your skirt. You might already know which colors flatter you, which make you look older, fatter, etc. Pick the shade that you look fabulous in.

• Perhaps the most important thing is to make sure the asymmetrical skirt is exactly your size and fits you well. Look at yourself from different angles. Once you think you are great, only then buy it.

Layering is a great technique, so go for a clinging top and a cardigan. Accessorize your look without shifting the attention from your unusual skirt. In summer, an asymmetrical skirt looks great when paired with a simple t-shirt or a tank top, a pair of sandals, a bag and some lovely jewelry.

• With you asymmetrical skirt you are free to wear either tights or pantyhose. Whatever you choose, take into consideration the color and fabric of your skirt. For light-colored and thin fabrics, go for pantyhose, while for thicker and darker ones, wear tights.

• Pay special attention to your footwear. Asymmetrical skirts are mostly matched with high heels. Your shoes are advised to be simple and in versatile colors, like black, white or nude, or, at least, the same color as your skirt.

At the end, finish off your look with the matching accessories.

Wedding day is special for women everywhere. It’s the time that you want to look perfect, since it’s your day, it’s about you; ever since you were a little girl you would dream about your special day, when you would feel like a real princess; a chic ball gown, fancy and elegant hairdo with a shiny tiara and of course a bridal veil hanging down gently over your face as you start your new life with the one you’re meant to be with. Every single detail is of utmost importance starting from the tip of your toes to the endings of your hair, and you make sure to do everything the way you want and like, because remember this day is all about you. Bridal lingerie plays a no less important role in perfecting your look, so make sure you learn how to choose wedding lingerie for the most ideal outcomes!

The wedding dress, the matching shoes are very essential, however, bridal lingerie has a leading importance in this case, so, don’t leave purchasing it to the last minute. Take your time and pay much attention to what you’ll be wearing underneath the dress. Make sure not to economize on bridal lingerie as it creates the right shape of your dress (we all know weddings can be very expensive and if you have a dilemma, it’s better to buy a cheaper dress, but expensive lingerie). For instance, if you are going to wear a strapless gown you’ll need a strapless bra or bustier to provide your bust with the necessary lift and shape. Don’t forget about panties; choose panties that will fit very close and will not show any lines: G-strings are a good way to go.

If you are conscious about your weight and you want to look slimmer, try some body slimmers or shapewear under your dress, but be aware that it might not be stylish or comfortable. However, if your dress has a full skirt, you won’t need to worry about that. Pay attention to the comfort, as you’ll be wearing it all day long.

Your wedding lingerie should be both beautiful and invisible, so try to match it to your dress. Don’t forget about pretty, lace stockings and delicate garter; they should also match; with the right size and colors you can create a beautiful set of lingerie for your wedding day.

As far as the first wedding night goes, you can put on whatever you want, like extra small lingerie. Anything will do, since you won’t be wearing the dress then, and won’t have to match it to your wedding gown (both the color or the shape). You can change in the bathroom and wear your special lingerie; it should be something that makes you both look and feel great.

Remember to take your time and go step by step;

1. Have a fitting

2. Match to dress

3. Use shapewear or slimmers cautiously

4. Wear correct panties

6. Remember about the garter

7. Get mysterious

Remember ladies, this is your day and you are the center of attention and praise, feel confident and trendy and you will look so as well. So good luck to all of you and a happy journey with your spouse!
