A Revealing Behind!

          Many celebrities have been sporting the backless trend this summer.  This look is quite revealing, but chic if done correctly.  Obviously, you have to go braless!  Be sure to break out the sticky boobs or breast petals to make this look complete.  Have fun with the more casual beach side look or dress it up with some rockin' pumps and a matching clutch.  Finally, keep your strands simple, either keep your hair down or loosely pull it back.  Check these out if you dare before the weather gets too cold!

   

Watch your back!

Skirttastic!

     Edgy cutouts seem to be the trend these days.  Skirts have gone from streamlined to billowy and cutouts are popping up all over the place.  Be sure to balance out your reveal with a modest pairing; a cutout skirt worn with a full coverage blouse rather than a cropped top, for example.  The cutouts or sections that are taken out of these skirts tends to give a chic and urban edge to your style.  Most of these looks below are versatile from day to night; just add some pumps and one or two flashy accessories.  See how these woman below have mastered the cutout trend.

    People tend to be a little scared to take adventures when it comes to shoes, usually sticking to black or brown, boots or flats.  But, this Fall the trend that is flashing before everyones eyes are suede shoes in colorful hues; rusty orange, emerald green, milk, smokey purple, and foggy blue.  Step in to the shoe department and drink in the color around you.  This trend started with designers like Prada and Mui Mui and caught on like wildfire to the streets.  Punch up one of your simple outfits by wearing a pair of bright suede shoes, similar to these ones below.

Dressy Shorts!

     Lets face it, shorts generally get the "too casual" rap from the fashion community.  But can shorts be dressy?  Well, start with the fabric for instance, choose something dressier than denim.  Silk, twill, tweed, lace and heavy cotton are all great fabrics for dressy shorts. They should be loose fitting.  Mid-thigh is a great length for this style because it is appropriate.  Loose, flowing shorts create a great structure that falls from the body creating an effortless and cool style.   Dressy shorts are extremely comfortable and still maintain a professional look.   Check out these too cool for school looks.

Don't come up short!

Neutral on Neutral!

   If you are ever feeling like you need a palette cleanse to switch up your busy patterned wardrobe just take a day off and go neutral.  This new look is bold and chic, and when worn correctly from head to toe, it's a fashion statement that every woman should make.   Many women think that wearing neutral on neutral is just plain boring but, I beg to differ.  If you feel that way try breaking up your outfit with a darker neutral (black or brown) but, if you insist or feel more comfortable use a pattern or bright color.   White, beige, kaki and black are all great neutrals that, when put together properly, can make a definite style standout.  Check out these shots to see how head to toe neutrals are shockingly fabulous.

Mullet Skirts!

     Summertime is slowly coming to an end so lets make sure that you all get a chance to wear your summer favorites one more time!  My personal favorite is the mullet dress or skirt.  It's stylish, versatile, feminine and keeps you cool on those hot days.  The length of the dress or skirt is a personal preference, some prefer long tails and others short.  This loose simple style looks great with either a plain or patterned top and belts are a great accessory to accent your waist.  Take a look at how these girls have mastered the mullet!

Short or long?
