This article goes out to all petite women out there, as I truly feel your pain… As an award winning personal stylist and wardrobe stylist covering London, Surrey and Hampshire, I shop for a living and still to this day find quality petite clothing a real challenge to hunt down. With having two petite clients in one week with two completely different body shapes I have to say that although both shopping trips were successful I’ve noticed choice is STILL limited…
We’ve just been sent this video from Very.co.uk (the new Littlewoods Direct), which features presenter and stylist Louise Roe providing tips on how to wear this autumn’s bright trends, with dresses to suit every body shape.
There are a few good tips in here, it’s easy to watch and there’s enough colour to brighten up anyone’s day… bring on AW09!
Knowing the right style swimwear to suit your body shape can be a bit of a tall order sometimes. There are so many styles out there with different cuts, shapes and colours – but which one should you actually buy? Just remember – if you are bigger on your top half you will need support and if you are smaller on your top half look for pieces with eye-catching detail above the waist. A few other handy tips you should keep in mind are if you are curvier look for suits with control panels in the hips, stomach and buttocks, halternecks are great for broad shoulders and swimsuits with cut-outs can give a straight figure instant curves! Here are a few examples of different swimsuit styles suitable for different body shapes to get you going ladies!
Guys … surely you don’t need an excuse to buy your lady a beautiful set of lingerie? Whatever the occasion here are our top 5 tips so you can surprise her.
1. Where do you begin to find out her bra size, her favourite styles and colours she feels good in? By taking a sneaky peak in her underwear draw you’ll get a good idea of what styles she likes wearing. This could be anything from thongs, shorts or French knickers to lace, t-shirt and smooth satin cup bras. Take a look when you know she won’t catch you doing so, as it could look very suspicious and end up being sooooooo embarrassing.
