Michelle Obama in Gucci Gown

The First Lady wore a beautiful Gucci dress to the White House dinner 2 nights ago. This is the first time she wore a non-American designer dress. She looks breathtaking in this striking pink and green gown.  It does have a Christmas feel to it.  Many wondered if the reason for the choice of an Italian designer was to show her support for Italian Prime Minister, Matteo Renzi who announced his resignation after voters rejected his constitutional reform plans.  Perhaps fashion is used as a strategic tool to convey diplomatic messages?

Jumpsuit Trend 2017

Jumpsuit is a one-piece clothing that is often referred to as a romper or a playsuit.  This head to toe,  all in one fashion is very striking and is a fashion statement.  You can find cool jumpsuits in long pants, culotte length or short skirt style.  Jumpsuits are showing up in the runways and is style that I think would suit all women.

There are women who avoid this style because it is not an easy piece of clothing to pull off. Choosing the wrong fit or matching it with the wrong accessories or shoes can turn this style into a disaster.  Here are a few tricks on how to look your best in a jumpsuit.

j2Generally, the jumpsuits are fitted at the waist and looser on the legs. For tall women, wide leg jumpsuit will suit them the best. Shorter women may opt for a slim cropped style.  Jumpsuits can be worn for many different occasions such as formal, semi-formal and casual.  For a more relaxed weekend style, you may choose jumpsuits in cotton or denim fabric.  Loose fit ones with elasticized waist are flattering.  You can also opt for a dress-design jumpsuit with buttons in front. Wear a tube underneath and leave a few buttons open.

Jumpsuit s can also be worn for formal occasions.  Remember to choose a well-favored and sleek style that flatters your body.  Add a statement necklace and you are good to go.  See, it is really very easy to dress up for an occasion.  Just pair it with the right accessories and heels.

Current Love – Embroidery Tops

I have been seeing a lot of tops, dresses and pants with embroidery at my favourite stores and brands. With a dash of applique and beads, there is no doubt about it that embroidery is the current rage now.  I just love the eccentric and colourful embroidery designs. They can instantly reinvigorate an outfit and incorporate into your wardrobe to suit any occasion. I am absolutely loving these pieces from Zara.

So did you watch the Emmy Awards that took place in LA last night? As always, fans and style-watchers were busy checking out their favourite stars.   Some of the dresses made my jaw dropped.  They are so gorgeous.  Here are some of my favourite that night.

I love Kirsten Dunst’s simple black gown that shows some cleavage.

Sarah Hyland looked amazing in a strapless, floral top and cropped trousers.  Pants on the red carpet are chic.

How About Some Gingham

Prom Dresses London

Gingham is major fashion trend this year.  Are you a fan?  How do you wear it without looking like a tablecloth or Bo Peep?  Some good tips I found is to pair a gingham top with plain bottom and vice-versa.  A gingham dress is fine but keep everything else plain.  Below are some of my favourite styles.  Have you stocked up on this print?
