Dresses

Clothes are a great way to show the world who you are. Your personality plays a big part in all your clothes buying outings; it affects the type, style, colour and length of all your clothes, so why wouldn’t it affect the kind of wedding dress you buy? Of course it must!

Walking down the street you pass dozens of strangers daily and in the thirty seconds they fill your field of vision and they yours, they decide who you are based on what you’re wearing. A woman in a black pinstripe suit is a serious businesswoman, with her head on her shoulders. However, a pair of dangly earrings tells the passerby that she more than wants to look professional; she also wants to look fashionable. A woman in a bright yellow shirt with flowers on it, you might think her to be outgoing and vivacious, a real people person who is confident in the spotlight. While a woman in ripped jeans and a black shirt with skull earrings is a goth girl who is not interested in making new friends. You really get all that from thirty seconds! Sounds crazy, no? It’s true though, clothes advertise to the world who you are as a person.

So why would you buy a wedding dress with a high Victorian collar, elbow length lace and a skirt that puffs out to mars if you’re an outgoing, modern type of girl? Well you wouldn’t, would you? However if you were into the traditional look, more of the serious type with a thing for history you’d probably buy that kind of dress I bet. Whatever your personality type, there’s a dress out there for you, I guarantee it. If you’re a loud mouthed, rule breaker type, well you’ll probably shy away from a white dress and go for a tight red one with three inch heels.

The most important thing to remember is that this is your day and you probably won’t get another one like it so you better get everything perfect for yourself and forget everyone else’s opinion. That includes your dress, your flowers, your vows, your music, it’s all for you despite the moaning and groaning of your bridesmaids or your opinionated soon to be mother-in-law. The only other opinion that should matter is your fiancé’s as it’s his special day too. Don’t let tradition spoil your wedding either, do what you feel you need to do to have the very best day you can and remember, it’s supposed to be fun so enjoy it!

Dressing well involves maximizing your attributes and minimizing your flaws, creating the best personal appearance for your body type and shape. If you are flat chested and shopping for a dress, you are likely wondering which styles would flatter your figure. You can maximize your chest by selecting the right shape, color and style for your dress. And, in some cases, you can cheat a little by leveraging a variety of modern inventions.

Creating an Illusion If you want to create the illusion of larger breasts with your selection of a dress, choose the classic strapless style. In addition to selecting a strapless style, choose a dress with embellishment, ruffles, patterns or added fabric along the bust line. These items will enhance the appearance of your chest. In addition to the top of the dress, focus on a strapless dress that nips in at the waist line, focusing attention away from your breasts and onto the most narrow part of your body. Then go for high heels and a length that sits right above your knees, for an overall stunning look.

You can also create an illusion through the selection of an empire line dress. These dresses taper out past the waist line. No matter how big or flat you are, the shape of this dress will make you appear larger. If you choose an empire waisted dress with straps, choose thin almost spaghetti like straps for the best illusion effect up top.

The last style of dress to choose for an illusion effect is that of a bustier dress. Prada made this style of dress famous, but many designers have created similar looks. The fact that these dresses cinch in around your waist makes any bust line look larger. In fact, these dresses actually look better on women with smaller chests.

Display your Small Chest If you decide to embrace your small chest, there are also dress styles that will flatter your current body type. One such dress type is the plunging neck line. Choose a plunging v-neck dress in virtually any color to showcase your small bust. These dresses were made for women will small busts. In fact, you could even take the sexiness factor up a notch and go braless! After all, there has to be some advantage of being small chested!

If you simply must wear a lot more, just make sure that all the pieces are in harmony with the rest of the outfit. True, clothes make a man, but you would rather be remembered for your conversation rather than your designer bag, right? When you are fond of following trends, your aim is to look fresh, tuned in and of the moment. Staying abreast of the fads is important, lest your clothes become out-of-date. This may mean that you have to buy new clothes all the time, but hey, that’s the price you pay for being trendy. Otherwise, incorporate classic pieces with your up-to-the-minute ones so you can be fashionable without having to spend a lot on a new wardrobe every season.

Every article of clothing that a person puts on must blend well together—we’re not just talking about colors here. The fabric, styles and accessories should match– that means leave your cowboy hat at home if you are going to a formal dinner in an elegant little black dress. If having uncertainties on what to wear, call the host/hostess and determine beforehand what type of clothing is required of the occasion. Or play it safe by choosing an outfit that can be dressed up or down with jewelry, scarf or jacket. The most essential key one must remember on how to dress to impress is cleanliness.

Ethical Cheating for Small Chested Women If you just want to add that little extra to any dress, there are methods that can allow you to ethically cheat- adding volume to your bust line to deceive the naked eye. You can use push up bras to add volume and width to your chest. These bras come in virtually every color and style, making it fun to shop for that something extra in your wardrobe. And the best part is, no one will ever know you have one on underneath your dress! No matter what size your breasts are, you will be able to find that perfect dress to accent your body and to either play up or play down your small chest.
