I love wearing jeans as they can hide my flaws. I feel insecure with my belly so it is important that I find the right pair of jeans that will accentuate my best features without drawing attention to my midsection.

Choosing a dark colour skinny jeans and pairing with long blouses that cover the hips will flatter the figure and hide the tummy.

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 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.

Generally, 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.

I have been spotting a bob for over 20 years. The only time that I have long hair was when I was a teenager. I do not like hair on my neck area for some reason. I like bob style as it is a classic look and does not go out of style. I am looking for more ways to wear this style and came across a few that I really like.

Structured A line bob that adds depth and dimension to the look.
