    High-waisted

    This dazzling sequin number gives a slimming effect and adds  a more balanced shape to your bod, thanks to the empire waistline.

    Take the plunge

    Apple-shaped girls tend to be more top-heavy, so go for a plunging cut to show off your neckline. Frilly details like ruffles or lace, are cutesy ways to draw eyes up! Add a pretty bow belt at your waist if you want something more form-fitted.

    Drop-waist darling

    A drop-waist dress skims the waistline and hits around the hipbones. This girly chiffon dress is chic yet casual—perfect for your BFF’s bash.

    Turn heads in a tunic dress

    Strut your stuff in a tunic dress that hits above the knee. Long sleeves and the neutral hue make it a little more posh. Add cute pumps!

    Bow tied

    A babydoll dress with a loose skirt gives more shape to your narrow bottom. A subtle embellishment—like a bow at the waist—is totally figure-flattering. Love the sweetheart neckline.

    Cupcake cutie

    A ruffled bodice flatters your pretty face, while silky chiffon falls lightly to just-above-the-knee. So sweet!

MOD! MOD!
what kinda thing do i wear to a hockey game with my crush?
and how do i make a tanktop work in the fall?

 

Slip a cardigan on over it! Hm, for a hockey game, definitely go casual.  At this kind of place, you're just going to hang out, relax, and scream for your team, so basic jeans, boots and a tee!
