Dressing to impress is every girl’s insatiable goal. Whether you are going for a boardroom meeting, hanging out with friends, or going for a dinner date, receiving a compliment is as good as sealing the deal. As much as you want to show your style, it’s twice as necessary to look appropriate for the occasion, and there’s a sure way of balancing that out. Remember that how you dress is probably the first thing anyone notices and so it’s imperative to look your best if you want to dress to impress.

So here are three steps on how to dress to impress. I’m pretty sure you’d be stepping out differently after now.

1.Striking a Balance.

Striking a balance between personal style and blending in is paramount. Find out the dress code beforehand, but that doesn’t mean you must stick to it strictly. Put your spin into it to stand out for the right reasons. For example, instead of wearing your signature goth leather looks to a baby shower, wear a sundress with a leather jacket, cage sandals instead of boots, and statement accessories to finish up your look. And also, pls go light on your makeup!

2. Shop with Less.

Shop with less but upgrade your style. Yes, dressing to impress involves a bit of retail therapy, but it doesn’t have to be a lofty investment. There are lots of pocket-friendly brands, not to mention fashion sites offering discounts. Invest a bit of time, compare prices before buying. You may even try thrift shopping, but remember, the goal is to stand out stylishly.

3. Boss up your Look.

Always dress one step ahead. That is to say, boss up your wardrobe by adding one piece of formal wear to a casual outfit. Take it a step further by going full-on power look like a suit or business dress if you are networking with business professionals or an after office meeting.

It has become apparent to include size diversity in racks in top stores all over the world but the main challenge we see most of the time is picking the right outfit for your curvier self that not only accentuates your best assets but also keeps you fashionably in check. Top brands like Cushnie, Christian Siriano are amongst a few that have introduced body diversity to their shows as we keep seeing more brands embrace curvy models like Area and Veronica Beard in their fall 2019 show.

With popular curvy models like Ashley Graham, Candice Huffines and the rest representing their lane on and off the runway, there has been a new sense of pride and body positivity consciousness in the fashion world. Talking about body positivity, we can’t spell those words without mentioning the beautiful talented singer Lizzo that has inadvertently championed this movement in her own industry.

We would say in our world now, brands have more than before become aware that fashion is for more than one body type that is the straight figured model types, and are filling up their racks with the right size chart range consumers need. On this article, we will be sharing the go-to looks our curvy readers should totally explore when surfing through racks or sites online.

  1. Tried wearing jumpsuits?

Jumpsuit is an ideal outfit for curvy women. From jersey fabrics to floral prints, utility designs and boiler types. Jumpsuits have an effortless chic aesthetic to them and is perfect for curvaceous women. We recommend going a size up if you getting one without stretch.

2. Wrap Dresses are the Right Dresses

Back in 2018 Kylie Jenner opted for a fuchsia pink Peter Dundas dress for her 21st birthday

Wrap dresses are unusually so fun and flirty and they have a good way of accentuating the right curves while concealing unflattering areas, anything that involves a wrap is a definite hit for a curvy body frame.

3. Stock up on tuxedo dresses

Take formal wear to the next level in chic tuxedo dresses. This getup is formal yet stylish and so in trend right now as it breaches the gap between masculine and feminine style. It is also highly slimming while still showing off your natural assets.

 4. Take off in a ruched dress

Nothing screams sexy at its finest like a ruched dress. So in season and stylish, this trend will have you wanting more. A ruched dress flatters a curvy figure as it hugs all the right parts, leaving the ruches as a good decoy and added style aesthetic.

Voila! All is well and we are ready to go on that overdue vacation, yesss!! FINALLY!! OK, let’s get serious, everyone knows petite body sizes can rock absolutely anything. Are my right or right? (Let’s not get over our heads here) LOL! Yes we agree you can rock almost anything but being able to rock any style and being fashionable are two things. We have rounded up our editor’s top picks of the perfect vacation outfit for our petite readers.

Before we go into the petite vacation styles it’s important to note these simple guidelines for better planning;

  • First, consider the type of destination. Knowing or researching your destination will help you buy outfits suitable for the destination. For example if you are going to the carribeans you might want to whip out your best floral two-pieces as opposed to going to a golf resort where unrestrictive cloths are better off.
  • Consider the weather of the destination. Not only the weather in the day time but day-to-night time weather changes. This will help prevent unnecessary regrets or necessity to buy things you might have but left behind.
  • Check out the activities you might be doing because what you would be doing at your vacation determines the kind of vacation outfits to pack. Again remember to consider night time activities and late night dinners or group activities.
  • To wrap it up, ALWAYS shop in the petite corner in order to get not only the right fit but the right lengths because we all know if we look good, we feel good.

You walk towards a store gazing at the dress near the window pane. In your head, you already have a rough plan (pseudo) about where to wear it, how to style it and everything else possible. Thinking you know how to dress for your body type, you walk into the fitting room with your chin up and shoulders high! Everything comes crashing down because the dress doesn’t suit you. That sums up most shopping experiences. Why? Because, it’s not for your body type, simple! And most of us are just unaware of these basics. 

Let’s dive into the types of body shapes and clothes that can fit in properly.

An Apple Body Shape

When you have a heavier upper body in comparison to your lower part of the body, it is considered you have an Apple-shaped body. People with this body type usually have broad shoulders, bigger bust lines, and that’s why it feels like the weight gathers around the waistline.

It can be hard to believe that someone so svelte and charming as Angelina Jolie could be an exact fit for an apple shaped body. This just goes to show that being an apple shaped body doesn’t mean that you are heavy or carting around a forever muffin top in your abdomen. An apple body shape can be tall and slim as well!

A-line or empire cuts are ideal for an Apple-shaped individual. Printed dresses or patterned jackets that add a layer to shift the focus should be considered. Monochrome looks, dark colors, full or 3/4th sleeves dresses, and flowy tops will help. You could also wear flared bottoms; palazzos etc. to create a balance. 

Shop the looks:

An Hourglass Body Shape

 This body type is the most balanced of all with a proportionate top and bottom part of the body with a well-defined waistline. So when you look for dresses, choose the ones that do just that for you. It is a body to die for, so flaunt it and in the right way.

Just as the hour glass shape is the most balanced of all shapes, Beyonce Knowles is a perfect example . Raw images prove that all her sexy arches are incredibly genuine and stunning.

Dresses that cinch in the waist will be your best fit for an hour-glass body shape. V or plunge V and sweetheart necklines help flaunt the upper body. A belt at your natural waistline or below the belly button will help flaunt the waistline. Almost anything looks great on this body type. But pairing it up with loose tops or bottoms might kill the look!

Shop the looks:

A Pear Body Shape

The pear-shaped body is all in the lower part of the body. The butt and thighs are visually bigger than the upper body. You’re lucky if you’ve naturally got a figure like this or achieved this with workouts because this body is a rage right now. 

Known for her killer body shape, Kim Kardashian West has a narrow waist and hips wider than their shoulders. This means she is a pear-shaped woman!. Narrow waist, wide hips and thighs, smaller butts, these are all attributes of a pear-shaped body.

Wide-legged trousers, A-line skirts or dresses with patterned tops that add definition to the upper body. Skinny jeans with Crop tops, V or deep-V, scoop or boat necks will balance your bottom out. Skin fitting tops and loose bottoms will not look so good on a pear-shaped body, unless you prefer the look.

Shop the looks:

Rectangle Body Shape

The rectangle body shape tends to have the easiest body for dressing. It has no defined waist and the curves on the body aren’t much. The rectangle body shape is the most dominant body shape followed by the pear shape.

Cameron Diaz rocked these outfits revealing her rectangle body shape. When it comes to rectangle body shapes, everything you wear should help create curves and dimension, right down to the shoe you choose. 

While looking for an outfit for a rectangle body shape, choose A-line skirts, ruffled and layered tops. A v-neck top adds dimension and curve to the upper body. Sleeveless, strapless and sweetheart lines are essential as well. Avoid dresses that are ubiquitous, they look very consuming and will not look awesome.

Shop the looks:

Inverted Triangle Body Shape

This body type can also be considered as an Athletic body type. Proportionally larger upper body, broad shoulders, and an ample bust and a wide back. Slim hips and the back side may have a tendency towards the flat side.

Looking at Heather Graham, one would go head over heels for her triangle body shape. Her outfits suit her perfectly. For inverted triangle body shapes, the hips are much narrower than the shoulders, so a pencil cut skirt, skinny jeans, etc. with any tops will look awesome. V-neck lines work well and create an illusion of narrow shoulders, so this should be your go-to neckline.

Shop the looks:

Being informed about your body shape can solve a lot of your shopping nightmares. You at least know that if a dress is not fitting or not looking a certain way, it does not imply that you’re out of shape and you are doing things wrongly. I hope by now you have gotten a better idea of how to dress for your body type.
