Fun in the Sun-Dress

Hello!!

We hope your all having a great week!! This recent heat wave has presented some definite outfit issues.  Looking cute in 100 degree weather is not always such an easy feat.  Which brings us to our FASHION FIXATION du jour, sundresses!!!


The sundress is summer staple.  It is a perfect solution to extreme temperatures while still looking cute and cool. Patterns, bright colors and other adornments make these dresses the perfect summer outfit! When looking for a sundress for this season there are some things to keep in mind.  First is the style.  Some styles are more flattering on certain body types than others.  Try your choices on in the store before purchasing.  While sometimes annoying this is a very important part of shopping.  It allows you to see the garment you're purchasing from all angles (they usually have triple mirrors that help with this) and maybe even get some opinions from the friends you went shopping with! 


Another important thing to remember when getting a sundress is the pattern.  Some loud, busy patterns do not always look great on everyone.  Once again, try it before you buy it!!! You will be happy you did! If you are looking for a dress you can wear over and over again to different types of places, we suggest a more subdued pattern, sometimes the best fashion statement is no fashion statement.  But when your going to a fun summer party or barbecue break out your florals and polka-dots!!! 


Lastly please keep in mind the under-garments you are planning to wear with your dress.  A strapless dress means a strapless bra!!!  Don't ruin a completely ah-dorable dress by having your bra straps hanging out, pas jolie.  


Some great places to pick up the perfect sundresses are J. CrewGAPBanana Republic and an amazing website Piperlime.  So pair your dress with some cute sandals (you can find great sandals on Piperlime or at Steve Madden) and some great jewelry and you are set for a perfect summer outing!! 


 Stay Flawless and Fabulous!
Love,
Lyndsey and Jenn
