Dress to Impress – How to Know if Your Dress is Too Short/Long

How short is too short?  How long is too long?

There’s a fine line between stylish —————- and unstylish.

 

Getting the right length, but also the right fit and shape, can make all the difference between looking fabulous or looking frumpy.

Let’s talk hemlines.

How to choose the right hem length for your body.

To determine your best length, stand in front of a full-length mirror, heels together, toes pointing toward 10 o’clock and 2 o’clock.

Check to see where your legs touch and where they don’t.

The places on your legs where your legs don’t touch, or rather the “openings” in the legs, are called “diamonds” in your legs.

Make sure all lengths, including skirts, dresses, shorts, capris, cropped pants and cuffed jeans end in the center of the diamond.

Note:  The openings will vary depending on the shoes you are wearing.

 

The bottom line is wearing a dress of the right style and ideal length to suit your body type is sure to make you feel beautiful and look fabulous!

How to Create a Vegan Breakfast Bowl (Recipe for Happiness)

This BREAKFAST BOWL has Super Foods and Super Powers!!!

“Several years ago, I was 70 pounds overweight, unhealthy, addicted to menthol cigarettes; suffering from hot flashes and depression.  I was unfulfilled in my job and unhappy in my 30 year marriage to my high school sweetheart.

At my lowest point I was inspired by a true story of a young, vegan girl. 

I spent an entire year building a wardrobe that complements me; treating myself to beauty treatments; eating healthy; organizing my closet; simplifying my style and focusing on me.  As a result, I quit smoking, lost 50 pounds and gained self confidence.  I built a booming business and restored my marriage.

Today I eat to live, not live to eat.  I make food choices that nurture my body and my brain.  I’ve decided not to poison myself with the processed, packaged products.  Instead, I delight myself with colorful fruits and vegetables.”  -(Excerpts from The Fashionating Life Formula: How to Build your Self Confidence by Nancy Joseph)
