Occasion Dresses To Flatter Your Figure

Summer is a time for big celebrations and getting together with friends and family.But while the sun’s shining and the heat is on, it’s understandable that many of us feel a little confused about what to wear whilst enjoying the warm summer weather.

Occasion dresses at Littlewoods.com are available in every imaginable cut and colour and finding the one that’s best for your body is not as hard as you’d imagine. Following a few simple style rules will ensure that you’re looking great and feeling confident for all your summer events.

Stripes

If you’re thinking of wearing a striped dress to your big event, then it’s important that you take your body shape into consideration. If you’re very tall and petite, then vertical stripes will accentuate this, making you appear taller. Choose a dress with horizontal stripes that will give you the appearance of being a little curvier, with less height.

Alternatively, if you are looking for extra height and have a fuller figure, then vertical stripes are a great option for giving you a slim silhouette. Understanding the affect of stripes is a time honoured styling trick that can help you to compliment your figure no matter what your shape.

Length

As with stripes, the length of your occasion dresses can have a big impact on the way you show off your body shape. If you feel that you need more height, choose a dress that’s a bit shorter at the hem. Not only will this help your legs appear shapelier by exposing your calves but it will also help to accentuate your height and appear taller. Make sure that you choose a dress that sits comfortably above your knee but at least two inches below your hips. That way you will feel comfortable and look fabulously chic.

If you get the length of your dress right you can afford to choose either a tighter or looser fit, depending on your preference.

Patterns

There are hundreds of different patterns to choose from when it comes to occasion dresses. Bolder patters will make a big statement, while delicate patters will create a more subtle look.

If you’re hoping to turn some heads this summer you could try to pick a dress made from a chiffon fabric. As well as being extremely comfortable and cool in summer, chiffon is also extremely elegant and graceful and can be printed with a variety of patterns and colours.

Another great bonus of wearing chiffon is that it suits every body shape. A good rule of thumb: if you’re on the shorter side with a rounder figure, then blocks of colour tend to best. If you’re taller, then go bold with patterns and seasonal prints.

My First Experience

My first experience! Hmmm, are you thinking of something? Your guess is as good as mine. What I am talking about here is not something obscene or malicious of some sort. This is about another online store that I get to bump months ago. And this is Oasap.

I was given a unique privilege to actually experience their site first hand. In fact, they gave me an initial freebie which I can use to shop! Who am I to refuse? The best things in life are free right and this is one good example.

There are many things to love with Oasap. First, they have various choices that spans from apparels, shoes, bags, accessories, jewelries and more. Second, the price tags of these items are affordable. Third, their items are truly fabulous, classy and trendy. I really want to buy all of their dresses but the freebie is just limited. Poor me!

Yet, yet, yet, I was able to find one great dress that is within the bounds of my free credit. Say hello to this!

Ribbon plus crystals = perfect

Checked this out immediately and boy did I never think twice on this purchase. This just screams love and I cannot wait to have this one in my closet. Right after the ordering process, Oasap immediately sent me an email on the status of my order. And when they emailed me that my item was already shipped the least I can do is wait.

And just yesterday, our local post office informed me of this package. I am just excited. Can you blame me?  And guess what? The item is just lovely. It is indeed like the picture above. Fabric wise it is gorgeous. You can really sense that the material is durable and can indeed last for a long time. Here are some outtakes.

Will give justice to this dress by wearing it soon and taking a snapshot of it. I do not have the model's body hence do not expect too much. Look at the dress and only the dress.

Should you want to get this and other great fashion finds, visit Oasap. You can also get in touch with them in their Facebook and Twitter.

My first experience in Oasap is just remarkable!!! As I said this will definitely not be the last. Looking forward to my next purchases. Thank you Oasap!
