I put together three different outfits styled around some cute dresses for the upcoming party season. With Thanksgiving, Christmas and the New Year just around the corner, I thought this would be a useful post! I also gave my opinion on what would be more flattering for certain body shapes. I hope some of you find this helpful!
Dress #1: Perfect for the boyish body shape, this dress has a racer back and halter neck with lots of gathering in the front creating volume and giving the illusion of a fuller frame!
Dress: Benetton (similar style by Dorothy Perkins here)
Footless Tights: M&S
Boots: ASOS
Clutch: Vintage (similar style by M&S here)
Earrings: Accessorize
Jacket: H&M (similar style by Oasis here)
Dress #2: Super flattering for girls with curves, hourglass or full-figures. The structured shape and cinched in waist accentuate the natural curves of your body :)
Dress: French Connection (similar style from Oasis here)
Blazer: Zara (similar style/price, different colour from ASOS here)
Tights: ASOS
Shoes: New Look (get them in nude here)
Clutch: Vintage (similar style in black by Fiorelli here)
Earrings: Accessorize
Dress #3: Amazing on apple-shaped girls, this dress balances out the frame by adding volume to the lower body with the pockets and tulip skirt while flattering the upper body with the v-neck. The simple waist-line and zipper elongate the mid-section and make it appear slimmer!
Dress: Whistles
Tights: ASOS
Clutch: Vintage (similar style by New Look here)
Earrings: Accessorize
Let me know which dress is your favourite! Hope this helps, and that you all have a great time this holiday and party season! :)
Stay Stylish!

ReplyDeleteLovely post as usual Anna,you look amazing in all the dresses. Have a lovely evening.x
ReplyDelete#2 is my favorite! Amazing! But I'm too fat for this :-)
ReplyDeleteOoh I love all of them but I think my favourite is the second one. Super pretty & very flattering xo
ReplyDeleteI love them all....I guess I'd pick the 2nd as my favorite if you made me but I like them all! And you look so good in a leather jacket Anna.
ReplyDeleteI just can't decide on my favorite look, i love the dress from number two and the coat from number 3. Could you do a closet tour? because it seems you have a lot of hidden gems, you always have pieces that are absolutely stunning x x
ReplyDeleteOoh I like number 2 and it's something I would probably wear. You look stunning as always!
ReplyDeleteThanks for including different shapes, it's nice to see what us curvier girls can wear. x

ReplyDelete@Anonymous#1 I have a video called Welcome to my Wardrobe where I show everything but I didn't go into detail or show every piece :/ Sorry! I thought it would be too long! But I can do something similar again.
@lakebreeze I still can't comment on your blog! :( Everytime I try to leave a comment the box disappears, I have no idea why!
@Janaina Yes, I love it too :)
I just love the French connection dress! I'm an hourglass shape too and I've been looking for such a dress! unfortunately I don't like the jeans matieral so much of the dress you linked... do you have any other idea of where to get a similar dress?
