15 WAYS TO WEAR FLAT SHOES AT YOUR WEDDING

So we love a pair of sky high stilettos as much as the next gal, they’re sexy, flattering and glamorous.
But when it comes to navigating the aisle, circulating at cocktail hour, and hitting the dancefloor at your wedding – a whirlwind day spent four inches off the ground, becomes a series of trip hazards and blister inducers if you’re not a seasoned heel-wearer.
Which is why we, as every-day sporters of flip flops, boots, trainers, and pumps, are head over (no!) heels, with beautiful bridal flats.

A Smart Trick For Making Sure Your Outfits Are Always Amazing

Have you ever heard of the third-piece rule? We hadn’t either until we came across a former Nordstrom employee’s interesting account of her manager's outfit advice. In order to encourage a more stylish sales staff, some retail associates are given the style guidance to wear outfits on the job comprised of three pieces, not including your shoes. Your pants and top are your first and second pieces, and your third piece is an extra outfit element such as a jacket, blazer, sweater, vest or statement accessory. The Cut reported that the third-piece rule is in effect at Banana Republic and, according to one of our editors who previously worked retail at Madewell, they encourage the practice too.

So what’s so special about a third piece? It adds nuance to an otherwise run-of-the-mill outfit, making you look put together, polished, more interesting, and like you put a little effort into your look. Essentially, it’s a simple rule of thumb that promotes more stylish outfit choices. If you’re in doubt about the third-piece’s power, just take a look at some of our street-style favorites—you’ll notice all have adopted the guideline, with many even adding fourth and fifth pieces to take the effect to the next level.

Scroll down to check out some photos of the rule in practice. We swear you’re going to start asking yourself, “Am I wearing my third piece?” before you leave the house—we already are!

3 Clothing Tips Every Girl Should Know

It’s something we do every day — wear clothes! So, it somehow makes sense that we all have a few clothing tips and tricks up our sleeve. Everything from style and fashion to little tricks that help with all of the dilemmas we have with our bra straps, tight jeans, and uncomfortable shoes. These are all clothing tips that made me think “Why didn’t I think of that?!”. So, I thought I’d pass the wisdom on for other people that wear clothes. I figured there were a lot of you, so here we go!


1. Tucking Jeans Into Boots



No more fat ankles!! Most of my jeans are boot cut or straight leg (guess I’m just not a skinny jean kind of girl). This poses a problem when it comes to wearing boots — not only does it make it hard to zip them up, but I’m sometimes left with bunched up fabric that is uncomfortable and unflattering! If you have a similar problem, here is a nice little trick to tucking those non-skinny jeans into your boots.

2. Clever Zipper Solution



I have a few pairs of jeans that do this (too tight perhaps?). I’m not sure, but here’s an easy trick to help keep that pesky zipper up! Slide a key chain ring onto the loop of your zipper, and then loop it around the button. The ring stays concealed under the denim and ensures that you don’t get caught with your fly down.

3. Stretching Jeans To Fit

Ok, so you’ve maybe gained a few pounds, your jeans are getting tight, but not enough so that you need to go out and buy a whole new wardrobe. Been there, done that! You can’t stretch them several sizes, but you CAN stretch them enough to make them fit comfortably.



*Instructions: First, get your jeans damp. You can even put them on and then sit in the tub for a few minutes. This eliminates the process of trying to get them on while they’re wet. Or, give the areas that are too tight a good spray with a spray bottle.

Now wear them around the house for about 30 minutes doing lots of stretching, lunges, squats and perhaps some yoga poses. Now that you’ve gotten a good work out in (that’s just a bonus), take them off and let them hang dry. Repeat that process again once they are dry. You should now be able to breath a little easier!

*Stretching Them Length Wise: If you want to stretch them length wise, get them damp, lay them on the floor, put your foot down on the waist side to hold them down, and then grab the bottom of one of the legs and pull it firmly towards your body about 10 times. Repeat this process for the other leg.

CURRENTLY LOVING: RETRO SWIMSUITS

Hi everyone,
Instead of pulling out your teeny-weeny bikinis for the pool this summer, why not try a different swimsuit trend? I’m currently in love with retro-style swimsuits – they may cover more, but they’re just as chic, flirty and feminine! I love the bustier-style tops and the slightly high-waisted bottoms.  In my opinion, their structured shape makes them super flattering for most body types. Here are four retro-inspired two-pieces I love:

1.) Topshop: TopBottom 2.) Delias: TopBottom 3.) Jack Wills: TopBottom 4.) J. Crew: Top,Bottom 

If you’re more of a one-piece girl, try one of these figure-flattering numbers:

THE BEST SWIMSUIT FOR YOUR BODY TYPE

Hi everyone,
It’s that time of year again – swimsuit season.  For some, it’s time to show off the body they’ve been working on so hard for the past 9 months.  For others, it’s a time filled with dread and uncertainty. I’ve been getting a lot of requests from subbies asking me to do a post on the best swimsuit for your body type.   First, I want to clarify that there isn’t necessarily a “best” swimsuit for your body – you should wear whatever you feel the most beautiful and confident! There are however, some suits that will be more flattering to your figure than others.  That’s where this guide comes in.  Whether you’re a one-piece or two-piece kind of girl, here are the most flattering suits for your unique shape
3K50XQQB7I3XD2mKPgSDFX4h.jpeg:Amazon:photo
 
 
Banana shaped
Apple shaped
Pear shaped
Hourglass shaped
Banana shaped: Banana-shaped ladies have bodies that are more or less the same width from chest to hips, with minimal curve.  You can pretty much pull off any swimsuit style, but if you want to give the illusion of curves, I recommend finding a one-piece in a cute pattern with a bustier-style top and high-cut bottom – the top will round out your bust and the high-cut bottom will elongate your legs! If you’re more a bikini girl, fun accents like ruffles will give the illusion of a curvier figure.  
Apple shaped: Girls with apple-shaped bodies are busty with narrower hips.  The importance here is support – skip the skimpy string bikini and find a swimsuit that offers you good support (like a bra-top swimsuit) to flatter your curvier top half.  After all, you want your assets to look their best! I like how both the one-piece and two-piece suits above have little details on the bottom half to balance everything out.
Pear shaped: Pear shaped girls – your hips don’t lie! Embrace your booty with a bikini that hits right at the hips and a cute embellished top to give your top half some loving as well.  If you want to slim down your tummy, find a suit with ruching down the front and sides like the sexy one-piece above. If you’re going to go the ruching route, I recommend sticking to a solid color so it doesn’t create the opposite effect and overwhelm your body.
Hourglass shaped: If you’re a curvy goddess, your waist is the smallest part of your body and your chest and hip curve outwards.  It’s easy for you ladies to rock any suit you please, so take risks and have fun – find a one-piece with cutouts to further emphasize your curvy shape, or a playful retro-style two-piece.  A halter-top and bottom that hits at the waist shows off all your best assets.

Remember – these are just suggestions on the most flattering swimsuits for your body type.  The important thing is to rock whatever you feel most beautiful in! :)

THE LOOK: EMBELLISHED SHORTS

Well guys, it’s almost August. It’s the hottest month of the year in a lot of places, and in some, extremely dry or really humid. When it’s so warm that you can’t even fathom choosing a cute outfit to run errands or meet friends for lunch in, it’s hard to think of style as a priority. That’s where loose-fitting, airy, and really adorable shorts come in. Forget denim, these flowy embellished shorts are all you need to pair with a t-shirt and sandals. No worrying about tight jeans or a dress sticking to you when it really heats up (yuck!).
Pom-pom shorts: Floral prints bordered by cute pom-poms or tassels make for a springy look when it’s far past spring. Pair them with a light, semi-sheer tank like Southern Curls & Pearls and you are sure to beat the heat. Love the heart sunnies, too!
Embroidered shorts: A pair of gauze shorts in a cotton fabric keeps you cool on the go but also serves as a great beach cover-up. The embroidery is beautiful and looks great with gold accessories for a glowing summer look.
Lace shorts: Breezy satin shorts are perfect for cooling off, but they’re also a great layering piece. The lace hemline gives them a feminine feel, and I love them with the contrast of basic sneakers and a pullover.
Scalloped shorts: Basic printed shorts are instantly dressed up with a scalloped edge. Throw a blouse on top and complete the look with chic wedges. The image above shows just how classy a pair of easy-going shorts can be if you combine them with the right accessories and hairstyle.

The skort: Asymmetrical skorts were huge last summer and it seems all the biggest fashion bloggers are breaking them out again this year. This is one old trend that has been glammed up and totally transformed. The silhouette elongates your legs like a micro-mini would. And the possibilities for shoe pairings? Endless!

THE PERFECT HEEL HEIGHT FOR ANY OCCASION

Let’s face it, fashion can be tricky. It seems like there are a lot of rules when it comes to style and trends. While I think it’s important to always do what makes you most comfortable and happy, it’s nice to have a rule of thumb when you need it.

Heels are such a fabulous accessory because they take both your outfit and your confidence up a notch. Here’s a guide you can pin to look back on when you’re not sure of the correct heel for the occasion on your calendar. Hope it helps!

Perfect Heel Height

2 & 3″
Perfect for:
School or work, where comfort is a must. Even if you’re not standing constantly, being on the move throughout the day can take its toll. Not only that, but some office settings require a more conservative look, and a kitten heel like the pair above is an alternative to flats. They’re sweet and feminine, and always look adorable with spring dresses! This makes them perfect for formal outdoor events such as weddings as well.

3.5 – 4.5″
Perfect for:
A dinner party with coworkers or a date night. This height is classic and polished, and comes in pretty much every style you can imagine, from block heels to stilettos. It works for weddings and special events as well, but make sure to find a comfortable pair that fits the occasion right. Rock this heel height whenever you want to dress up your outfit a bit without much effort.

If you prefer this height but aren’t sure if you can get away with it in the workplace, try wearing a sleek black or nude pair first to test the waters–it will be much less surprising to a manager than bright pumps.

5″+
Perfect for:
Honestly, not everyone loves strutting a super high heel, whether out on the town or not. But sky-high heels can be fun once you learn to walk in them! If you’re comfortable with adding 5″+ to your height, wear these with your favorite mini dress while out with girlfriends or at a party. Just be sure to bring a pair of flats along for later in the night!
