Fashion Trend: Drop Waist Dress / Skirt
Drop waist dresses are ultimately flattering, super stylish and are loved by the celebs - so of course we want to wear them too.
Victoria Beckham designed a beautiful dress that was worn by so many people, even on the red carpet, Michelle Williams and Hailee Steinfeld included.
Amanda Seyfried was also spotted in a beautiful, simple grey dress whilst on the promo tour for her new film Lovelace.
So how will you be wearing yours?
Wear it now with sandals during the day, or add some heels for a night-time look. Then add some tights and ankle boots during Autumn/Winter.

Fashion Trend: Cold Shoulder Tops
Sporting a cold shouder, split sleeve, peek-a-boo sleeve, cut-out shirt or whatever you want to call it, is a trend that has been around for a couple of years now. The look was introduced back in the nineties by Donna Karan and popped up every now and then. It immediately transforms your otherwise simple tee or sweat into something a little edgier and sexier. Here are a few tips on how to wear it right.
First of all, whether you are curvy, skinny, regular or petite, everybody looks divine in cold shoulder tops.
Karan said that no matter what people think about their bodies, they never complain about their shoulders. And she is absolutely right. Cold shoulder tops come in all sorts of variations; some of them are more cut away than others, so it's up to you to find the right fit you feel comfortable in.
If you wear a bra, there is no need to wear a special one underneath as it will not expose the bra straps. Easy does it.

How to wear cold-shoulder tops?
This piece has been a fad because it is obviously unique and effortlessly elegant.
The trick is to keep your bottom neutral so as not to overpower the top. The top itself is also stylish and daring.
Wear it with shorts.
If you are the casual type, the cold shoulder tops look exceptionally great with shorts. Wear a nice fitting shorts and team up the look with a nice pair of sandals then you are definitely good to go. You can wear this ensemble when you’re out for coffee or even at the beach!
Wear it with pants.
If pants are your thing, then, the cold shoulder tops can also be paired with them. Explore its versatility by pairing it with trousers, skinny jeans, distressed jeans, white pants, or cargo pants. Complete your casual look by wearing ankle boots.
Wear it with skirt.
This bottom is obviously for the girly-girl types. The skirt looks great when paired with a cold shoulder top. Skater skirts are the in piece right now so you can try wearing them with the said top. Skater skirts are definitely flattering and stylish so create a more stylish vibe by pairing your cold shoulder top with a skater skirt. You can also try pairing the top with a maxi skirt. Maxi skirts are so stylish and elegant! Be that outgoing and daring fashionista by exploring a lot of options.
Keep the accessories minimal.
Look extra chic by donning few accent accessories. Accessories may divert the highlight from your top so learn to wear only a few. Say for example, you are wearing a white cold shoulder top and a black leather skater skirt. Complete your look with a gold bangle and watch. If you are digging the bohemian look, try wearing bangles and bracelets that are exotic and unique. A single statement necklace can do the magic too!
Invest in quality pieces.
This is one and essential thing to remember before you purchase any item. This applies to everything we buy. Quality pieces are a must and it should never be compromised. If you want the piece to look great in whatever way you wear it, may sure that it is a quality piece. This factor is really important because you do not want to wear a piece only once right?

Style Tip: For a more impactful look, style and accessorize within the colour palette of your ombre piece.
Fashion Trend: Skater Dress - Why is it so LOVED?
Skater dresses are reminiscent of the babydoll dresses of the 90s and ice-dance costumes.
The trend isn’t exactly new as it traces back to the 80s where the short dress derived its inspiration from the ice-dance costumes.
And naturally, that was how it came to be called as the skater dress.
So what makes a skater dress different from other dresses?
The dress has a trademark cut. It basically comes in fitted at the waistline and then skims over the hips and thighs in the way of a full circle skirt.
The length of the skirt are typically designed to fall mid-thigh and it’s splendid for those who love to show off some legs. However, the dress can also come with a longer hemline.
If you love twirling around in a dress/skirt, the skater dress will be the ultimate twirl-inducing dress.
The cut of the dress is perfect for just about any body shapes. So it’s hard to hate something that’s amazing. If you’re apple-shaped, you can rock the trend. If you’re pear-shaped, you too can look good in the dress!
Bonus fashion point: Just make sure to get the right dress size for your body, nothing too loose or too tight. Pay close attention to how the waist of the dress falls onto your natural waistline.
For those who are blessed with wider hips, the twirly skirt cut may accentuate the size of your posterior to the point that it may not be too flattering. So to avoid this, please give the dress a try and a twirl before purchasing.
For hourglass-shaped gals, you’d be a fan for life as the skater dress will hug you gently around your curves making you look ultra feminine!
Here's our model, Michelle pick for Eleanor Floral Dress. :)
Throw on a skater dress and you will instantly manage to look younger as it has that little cute girl vibe to it. There are all sorts of skater dress designs from long sleeves, short sleeves, sleeveless and even bandeau design skater dresses. The preference is yours.
You may add on a belt to your dress to cinch in your waist some more but the dress alone without the belt will cinch in your waist perfectly.
So whenever in doubt on what to wear, grab that skater dress and get on the trend wagon.
