Dress To Impress
Posted on March 20th, 2010 No commentsThe prom dress is one of the most important aspects of any prom. Most young girls will agree that you only have one chance (unless you’re lucky enough to be asked to someone else’s prom) to impress. The prom has been the most anticipated day in a high school senior’s life; maybe a close second to graduation, so choosing the right dress is very important.
The great thing about prom dress styles is that there are so many styles to choose from. Many of these girls can get inspiration form just about any runway, movie, magazine or celebrity. Even though this is the prom and you will do just about anything to have the most impressive dress at the event, you still need to choose a dress that suits your body type. If you are short, a knee-length prom dress can do you justice while taller slim girls look great in long or short dresses. Luckily, there is an array of popular dresses, so the majority of girls find something more than suitable.
Bright colors and patterns are very popular amongst teens but many still prefer softer pastel tones. Strapless dresses look good with any body type, but a halter neck can also be very beautiful. Slits were very stylish in the early 1990’s, but today have fallen out of favor, and this is a style that should be avoided.
Prom Dress Styles – Hollywood Edition
Great prom dress ideas can also be taken from motion pictures. While seeing a dress on one of your favorite celebrities, you should really be able to see if you like the style of the dress or not. The majority of dresses seen on screen can be found in stores, so the need to hire a dressmaker to recreate these designs is not necessary.
“High School Musical” is one of today’s most popular films among teens. Not only does its catchy music have us singing along, but the films adorable stars have caught our attention. With “High School Musical 3’s” theme being based on a prom, the prom dress designs from the movie have inspired many prom goes and has become one of the most popular prom dress styles requested. The actresses in the movie are known for their knee length dresses with some of the freshest colors out there. They come with or without straps and flare out from the waist. Cute and adorable they complement most body types.
Who could forget Kate Hudson in her yellow long satin dress in “How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days” or Rachel Leigh Cook’s prom dress in “She’s All That.” But it is not always the celebrities on screen dresses that have young teens copying their styles. The majority of prom dress styles and inspirations are taken from what movie stars are wearing on the red carpet. With the most popular design on the red carpet being evening gowns, many young ladies are opting for long, body hugging satin dresses with diamante embellishments or the classic Cinderella dresses that flare out. These dresses do have beautiful designs and show maturity and sophistication.
Many high school aged girls these days are wearing prom dresses that are far too revealing. Attached to the body with double-sided tape and exposing just about every piece of skin on your body is a look for our tinsel town daredevils and is not really appropriate for a prom. Not only do some of these dresses look trashy, many of them are almost impossible to keep together. Chances are you will spend the evening making sure you don’t lose your dress altogether.
From the Runway to the Magazines to…You?
Choosing to recreate a dress off the runway for your prom can be very daring. Although you will be sure to have the latest trends it is not always a good idea. Most runway dresses are very bold and some can look like nothing you’ve ever seen before. When deciding to go this route, make sure you choose something that is wearable and will not get a lot of bad stares. A very simple dress can really bring out your beauty. You want to be remembered for how great you looked, not how ridiculous.
Some designers choose to make statements and they use the runway as a platform to be creative. However, there are designers that do create dresses that are appropriate for proms and do set the up and coming trends. Just be careful not to get confused between the two.
Magazines are also a great place to get ideas for a prom dress. Some of the most popular dress styles are taken from fashion magazines such as Vogue, Seventeen Magazine and Elle. They will usually display designs that are trendy at the moment, will be trendy very soon, or possibly retro styles that are still in. You will also get an idea of what not to wear. Even supermodels can look bad in some dresses.

Lots of choice with free delivery
Posted on February 8th, 2010 No commentsHello fashion fans! I’ve found yet another fashion website to spend my cash at and I must admit I’m excited! Affordable fashion and lots of choice with free delivery! What more could I ask for? The site is www.chiarafashion.co.uk, they have a lot of stuff and quite a few hidden gems on their pages. I can’t decide what to go for at the moment, I’ve narrowed my options down to three choices, but it was tough!
I’ve seen a few nice evening dresses that I like, the first is this black ribbon dress, only £20 and I’ve seen a VERY similar version on the high street at a not so similar price… which is great for me! It’ll pretty much go with everything, a classic LBD, it’d be rude not to buy it.
There’s also this gorgeous navy blue lace dress, it has a vintage look to it and I love the sheer back, a very sexy dress. This is my favourite so far and it’s only £16, chiarafashion.co.uk has free returns too so if it doesn’t fit I can send it back for free! It’s a really nice colour and I can wear it all year because it won’t be too dark for summer, definitely an investment.
Overall there are some great party dresses, another favourite of mine is this zebra print dress- I love the power shoulders! It’ll look great with some shoe boots and maybe a biker jacket… hmm looks like I’ve got some decisions to make, no doubt I’ll find another gem soon, I’ll keep you updated!

Casual Beach Wedding Dress
Posted on January 24th, 2010 No commentsThe trend for beach wedding dresses or any wedding dress for that matter has been leaning towards simplicity for the last several years. Gone are the wedding dresses that incorporated heavy materials, yards of lace and large fabric flowers. The bride’s arms came uncovered; bare shoulders became stylish and beach wedding dresses became uncomplicated and unencumbered.
Beach weddings are so convenient. The planning and decorations are minimal. Therefore, this is the best plan for couples who prefer short engagement. As for the beach wedding dresses, just go for minimal since the setting is on the sand with the ocean behind you. You wouldn’t want to be too glammed up.
Beach wedding dresses are seeked by many modern brides to be’s who are able to think out of the box. The average wedding these days is budgeted between fifteen and twenty-five thousand dollars. Why would a bright young couple want to be burdened by an expense that large for just one day? A beach wedding can be much more inexpensive, and make you feel much more relaxed. The important part is that you marry the right person, not how great your wedding party is. Beach wedding dresses have the ability to make you look absolutely stunning on your wedding day.
Even though the wedding dress is more relax, casual, and informal, the bride still must feel special, beautiful, and sexy with the wedding dress. The wedding dress sets the tone for the whole day. The common designs are halter, strapless top, or sleeveless wedding dress. In a hot summer days, it helps cool down the bride. The beach wedding dress uses soft and long white cotton fabric which easily flows. Due to the delicateness of the wedding dress, the wedding dress is hand-sewn, hand-made, and hand-beaded. As there are opportunities to go barefoot, the bride wears elegant flip flops, beach sandals, or strap sandals.
Just remember, that beach wedding dresses are much more casual, not as long as a traditional wedding dress, and are much more comfortable. They are also usually much more colorful and made of much lighter material. More bride to be’s are getting married in a variety of outdoor settings, and this is changing the way women dress on their wedding day. After all, you’re not going to be very comfortable saying “I do” on top of a mountain peak or on a beach wearing a huge wedding gown with a ten foot tail.
The beach wedding dress is a playful wedding dress with a touch of romance and elegance. The wedding dress is cool enough to handle the summer heat, hot, and humid climate. Since the beach is more of a laid-back atmosphere, the beach wedding dress is less formal.
A simple beach wedding dress can either be a formal or casual number. A full-length gown is perfect for a formal beach wedding while a knee length wedding dress will work well for a more casual affair.You can also go for a sarong-style dress. A simple length of fabric can be wrapped around and worn as a beach wedding dress – no frills, no need for sewing and it doubles as appropriate beach wear.

Are Fancy Dress Costumes Still Popular?
Posted on January 9th, 2010 No commentsWearing fancy dress costumes on special occasions is not a new concept. The costume parties where the people appear in attractive fancy dress have been very popular in the United States for quite a long period of time. Though many people have a misconception that the fancy dress is slowly losing popularity and will eventually become history in the near future, the statistics of the use of fancy dress costumes seem to have headed in a different path. Statistics indicate that the popularity of the fancy dress is steadily increasing than ever before. In fact, the fancy dress suppliers out there are not able to cope up with the demand now. You may be wondering what made these fancy dress costumes rise in popularity very quickly through this decade. As a matter of fact there are many reasons behind this huge popularity of the costume parties and the huge demand for the fancy dress.
The Concept Of Copying The Costumes Of Movie Characters
The introduction of the concept of making exact replicas of the costumes used in the Hollywood movies is one of the main reasons why these fancy dresses are popular today. Who will not love to be dressed like Spiderman and attend a costume party?

There are web shooting attachments that come along with the Spiderman fancy dress that will make you feel like the real super hero. Unlike the olden days when these costumes were manufactured in traditional cotton cloths, today with the advancements in technology, these costumes come in different materials with maximum details. The muscle definition in the Hollywood inspired fancy dress is an excellent example to maximum detailing.
The Availability Of Fancy Dress Online
The fancy dress suppliers have shifted from the high streets to online superstores which have made buying these costumes a lot easier than ever before. People don’t have to head all the way to the streets and search for the fancy dress they are looking for. Instead, they can just relax in their homes and find the best costume suited for the occasion with just a few mouse clicks. With the introduction of the online stores, the concept of costume parties is also spreading very fast to all the parts of the world.
When Today’s Fashion Becomes Tomorrow’s Fancy Dress
The 80s fancy dress is very popular today. Remember the fact that the costumes that we call as “80s fancy dress” were the main fashion trend of that period.
